Good choice of car. My big rallyes (Spain, Portugal France) until recently were with my Ford Escort MK1 TwinCam.

If I still lived near St. Jean If I spoke at least basic French If you were rallying your Packard If you didn't need help with expenses And if my only participation with rallying resulted in finishing 47th in a field of 50 (48, 49, & 50 didn't turn up) Happy days. I don't have a Packard. You could have camped in the garden of your old place. Oops! I thought it was you that had the late thirties Packard sedan with the Perkins diesel in it. I could have held a rock festival in the garden of my old place. ![]() ![]() |

I used to do the 1/4 mile on motorcycles - a Kawasaki 750 2 stroke back in the day. That was fun and my parents still have the bike in the garage back home. Worth a little bit now..
In a car on an oval track, again a 1/4 mile in a stock car - 350 v8, auto transmission, role cage and fuel cell. A buick, 2 door... Rock Island, il and in Hampton, Virginia were my courses for the car racing..I cannot remember the "name" of the car.. I want to say skylark but it wasn't that. Maybe Regal... I will ask my dad when i call next..
Hope you find what you are looking for....
You're not the nutter that rode that Kwacker triple at Santa Pod, holding the class record for ages? |
