Good vid Harley. Just a hint on Datsun engine capacity. The model number tells you the engine size ÷10, eg 240Z=2.4 litres, 280Z=2.8 litres.

The drift/rally circuit is surfaced with low grip tarmac, which apparently also has ground glass mixed in with it to make it even more slippy. I was helping set it up for the Gold Cup in 2019 and managed to get a 325 diesel, auto, E36 3 series BMW sideways, whilst towing a trailer loaded with cones and barriers. Spent the rest of the day in an autosolo prepped MX5 (MIG - spec diff) and knobbly gravel tyres skating around that circuit. It requires a very delicate touch to avoid facing the wrong direction at every corner.

Yes it is a glass lined surface to make it extra slippy!

I keep saying this Harley but I genuinely mean it, your videos just keep getting better and better and this one is no exception. I thoroughly enjoyed it and your commentary delivered in a confident and informed manner. The Volvo Amazons performed impressively. Great recovery by the Lotus MK2 Corina and the A40 didn't embarrass itself either. What can one say about the Ford Model A the fact it has survived to go around a track is in itself amazing. Car for me the Datsun 280Z

Thanks vince, that datsun did sound lovely

Nice to see the old rally cars. I remember of hearing about the Monte Carlo Rally back in the 1960s which is about the only rally that made the news here. Especially the first time the Mini won it outright with no handicap. Hope your hands have thawed out. Holding a camera in the rain drains the heat from your fingers and hands. Great video.

There were many other famous rally's in the 1950's and 60's that had media attention here, other than the Monte Carlo......

Thanks, while it was a tad chilly it was still good fun
