| Towing the D3 with a 90 and a 110 |
|
This is a short video of Ed Cobley driving Tinks 90 that was towing the Red Pearl through the dunes. Now to complicate things the 90 was struggling to pull the Red Pearl through the soft sand  so we then attached the Red dwarf to the front of the 90 and hey presto off we went. It was great fun watching the 90 being shook around like a rag doll when the rope went tight between the 2 heavier vehicles 
Turn the sound down someone says the F word
Unfortunately this is all there is left as the tape has become damaged sorry Tinks. Only thing for it is to go back next year and do it again.

It's a shame there's no video of Ray's 130 pulling the 110 pulling the D3, it was an amazing sight. It was just a blur of black and red, and then you all disappeared over the hill at a rate of knots. Very  mooie koplampen

Brilliant.
I would love to know what the radio chatter is as I can't make it out, it is like the old Carling black label/Dambusters advert. "All hail the mighty Quattro"
