Trials and tribulations

[Guest]

Mainly some photos of photos so don't expect too much.

Back when I was young (in my 20s) I used to have a go at production car trials. Started by just watching, but had to have a go. It was just club stuff and while I got the hang of it I could never really go for it as I would need my car for work on Monday.

That's a very young me in the driver's seat, I had ballsed it up. The passenger is the owner of the car who had let me have a go

That was my car, being driven by the mate who had let me drive his.

A poor bugger who lost the exhaust

A bit of a queue on one bit where we had to stack up so they could get a stuck car out. Yes the metro was competing

When was this - I'm guessing mid 1980s?

[Guest]

Pretty much, TCP was my fourth Morgan, so that was probably 1988, not all from the same trial though.

Trials do look fun, it's one of several things I keep meaning to find out about locally to go & watch.

This thread needs renaming to 'Living the Dream'.

And a last few, probably have more somewhere but that'll have to wait until my next tidy up.

I still had hair then and smiled, what went wrong.
