Hi. Iam sharing some pictures about this very good meeting in Bogota Colombia last Sunday October 4th. The picture include some about competition.
1) Fomeque tipical start engine: With a a Jack is lifted one rear wheel. Then one rope is placed around the wheel and finally two men pull strong the rope turning the wheel and starting engine (of course the shift is Third)
2) Hand Crank start. The competitors must start 5 cars using hand crank using the less time.
3) ZUMO. With one long and strong sling tow cars pull in the opposite direction. The winner is the car that go forward about 6 ft.

HAHA, good question... I think if we could round every single Patrol listed in the USA registry (minus the ones that have been scrapped) we might have about 200 or so, which looks pretty close to the number that were at this show...

great pictures Sal ! Thanks for sharing :clap:
