  • ****box Rally

    The ****box Rally started in Mackay yesterday https://****boxrallyau-2016.everyday...-rally-au-2016

    All cars have to cost $1000 or less.

    I didn't realise they were going past where I was so I only managed to get a few of the cars.

        Looks good, your link doesn't seem to working. But I like the couple of shots you managed to get. TFS

          Cheers Greg and Pete.
          Looks like the forum software messed with the letters in the link, replaced the other word for "'poo"' with ****
          I will have a play later and see if I can link it a different way
          Cheers, Brad.

              Here is another link, if you have 33 minutes to spare you can watch the video of the 2015 rally, I watched it, was worth losing the 33 minutes.
              It's not a race, rather a challenge to achieve the unthinkable.
              Cheers, Brad.

                My young business partner and I tried to be in that. Missed out. Looks like a lot of fun.

                  It would have been a great experience to be part of it, maybe next year Hans.

                  Thanks Isac. I was lucky because I was shooting some work related photos behind where I was standing for these shots, As it was an undercover area, I was in aperture priority, I think 800 or 1600iso and a fairly wide aperture, hence the high shutter when I walked outside, only trouble was, I had a 35mm prime lens on for the first lot of cars, changed to a 16-85 for the last few. I think I must have missed the bulk of the cars while I was busy, I think there was over 200 cars all up.
                  Cheers, Brad.

                  Again TFS I found a shorter version of the clip on YouTube. Would be nice to be part of that one Day. Here in Tas we have the Targa every Year.

                    This years rally finishes in Hobart Pete. Not sure how much fanfare there will be when it arrives.
                    Cheers, Brad.

                      That means they will come via Devonport. Hope to be in touch.

                        Great news, Must look for the ralley timetable, devonport only an hour and a half trip for me. And lets face it Hobart is only 3 hours. Cheers for the heads up Brad. Thanks

                          Did anyone catch sight of the cars on the way down, or in Hobart ? They were due in Hobart on Friday the 13th.
                          Cheers, Brad.

                            They got to Hobart and the cars were auctioned off down there to raise funds. The morning they arrived in Devonport was really ****ty weather which fits well with the rally title. So I didn't venture out. I did follow the progress though. Some real bargains had in the auction!

                            Superstitious mob in Tas. They probably all stayed indoors because bad things can happen on Friday 13th.
