Default Escort Tarmac Rally Clips

A couple of Escort clips to help pass the lockdown time...

N/A Millington powered Mk2 quoted at 300hp.
A bit of show boating but worth a watch.

Fast, angry sounding, N/A Warrior head Mk2, driven by Simon McKinley, RIP. One word. Commitment.

I'm guessing that he can do the Scandinavian flick better on dirt?

My favourite used to be Roger Clark.... maybe a bit before your time though

I would have been a glimour in the old mans eye when this was taken.
So just how old are you Gaso?



Interestingly Esso Blue, LVX 942J was found and restored a while back, whilst not driven like Roger used to it still sees some time on dirt. Kudo's to the current owner.

Lets just say I was old enough to enter the 1970 Ampol trial.
