Default GYmkhana Unleashed - Battersea Power Station

Possibly of limited interest to you chaps, but I thought I'd post these up anyway...

...as some of you may (or may not) know, I managed to blag an invite to the DiRT 3 Gymkhana Unleashed event at Battersea Power Station last week. I had a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon in the sun, watching/listening to a WRC car being ragged in the shadow of Battersea Power Station, playing a bit of DiRT 3 and drinking as much free Monster as I could lay my hands on!

As ever I packed my camera and here's what I got...























NB: Having now sampled it: I WANT DiRT 3!

Apparently thats the M-Sport test car? He gave it a good work out anyway - and finished the day by donuting the car until one of the rear tyres gave up!

Obviously what he was doing wasn't "proper" rally, but it was interesting to see/hear a WRC car being played with. Pity they couldn't convince him to ship his Fiesta over though...

Cheers! An afternoon of free Monster and watching a WRC car or two: whats not to like?


PS: Anyone spot the registration on the Focus?
