My Old Riley
I've finally learnt how to cut the pixies down in my pics...have a look at this. This is the old nail at speed (well at least 70!) at a famous European circuit. Anyone recognise it?

Re: My Old Riley
That wouldn't be the Le Mans circuit by any chance?
I've raced that circuit in Forza 4 on Xbox... not nearly as thrilling as the real thing I bet!
Great photo! Thanks for posting it!

Re: My Old Riley
Right first time, you get a gold star! I expect it all happens a bit quicker on the old X Box. Here's another taken on the same day.

Re: My Old Riley
Fantastic pictures! I'm hoping that is a right hand drive and your passenger took the pics? Otherwise the gold star goes to you!

Re: My Old Riley
Hi Pombellett
Here's an Australian version of a Riley racer for you. It's made up from an RMF 2 1/2 litre plus Pathfinder bits.
I took this at a race meeting outside Sydney recently, as it took my eye, having owned a (rust and rot free) RMF many years ago. It was deceptively fast.
I have a photo of a local '38 (?) Brooklands special replica and will put it up when I find it.
Good luck with the Bellett

Re: My Old Riley
That's a lurid looking bit of kit, that would make the stuffed shirt traditionalists of the Riley Register cough up their port, never seen anything like it.
