This was taken at the Australian International Pedal Prix on Saturday. This was the final round, which is the 24 hour event.
This marshall was lucky not to get his legs broken by this out of control pedal prix car...these things are travelling at 60 km/hr at this part of the track..
Yes Fozzie, we won

What an awesome looking machine! (Though I gather it looks a lot better when it's the right way up!)
That's a great capture Big V - well done.
