I Figured, seeing as you guys and girls enjoy photography as well as the black holes for money known as cars, you might like to see some of my shots from the 2009 Classic Adelaide Rally...

For those that arnt aware of the event, its a tarmac rally thought the Adelaide hills here in oz, 5 days and closed roads, there are a range of classes, from full competition, with no speed limits, right down to a touring class where they drive limited to 130km/h, its an awesome event that draws in a range of international drivers and cars...

Enough of that, onto some photos, ill start at Prologue where they determine starting positions, and work my way through the 4 days...

Yes this was entered, but in a non competitive class, he was still pushing hard though, wheel lifts and LOTS of body roll... Would love to see one stanced....

This sounds awesome, but they wernt pushing as hard as the leaders to need the rice wing...

No Idea what the owner was thinking when he decided to bring this 1959 Ferrari 250 Calafornia over from the UK to drive it... Im glad he did though, at least its getting used for what it was designed!

We got torrential rain on the 3rd day of competition after a few days of massive heat...

Sorry for the massive amount of photos, its so hard to select from 5 days of solid shooting... Hopefully this gives you guys a cross section of the event, and you enjoy the photos!
