Rusty iron rally 2013

[viewmont1071]

This year the rally featured a Stanley steamer and a 1968 built rail car billed as Australia's first Cackle car running 90% nitro and producing between 2000 and 2500 hp. I took a start up video.... I was about 5 feet away from the pipes... the sound wave was physically shaking my chest and rumbling the ground..... talk about cackle.... Banshee alert

392 Chrysler Hemi

 I know Morrie Carlton quite well. a very quiet and unassuming guy he fixes stereos ....... I couldn't believe that he piloted this car in the 70's

The emphasis was on two stroke tractors like the Lanz bulldogs and Marshalls

I took a video of these two Lanz''s stopping. The front wheels pretty well bounce off the ground... Way back when... Your stomach needed a pretty good hold on lunch to drive these in the afternoon..
