Old rallying footage on youtube, what a good watch!!

Found a great 5 minutes of footage from a rally club in QLD that was posted on Youtube.  Plenty of old 'humpys', a few FCs (mainly with their bonnet up and overheating!! LOL  ;D) and a FB, EK etc.  I really enjoyed it, hope the link below works!!

That is fantastic stuff.  Safety standards seemed to be lacking a bit, but they were having fun.

I love the steam train in the background of one shot.

Thanks for posting this.

Yes they were!!  On another note I have footage videoed from the old 16mm film that my Dad took of the 1955 Redex trial as the cars left Mt Isa in QLD, it's a great watch to see the humpys etc flying past where he was standing, what a great event, pity they don't do this now, or is just that the new Holdens & Fords wouldn't make it on those 'goat tracks'??

Cheers

I think I saw Ed's Wagon in one scene.   ;)
