Leadfoot Festival Documentary Discovery Channel

Post by escorthvn »

The Leadfoot Documentary titled One Way, is on the Discovery channel Thursday 29th Nov 9.30pm if anyone is interested to watch it. Our son in America has already seen it and it is really worth watching.

Thanks seaqnmac27 for posting our Leadfoot in car footage, more importantly the Leadfoot is showing on the same day and time as NZ in Australia which is Thursday 29th 9.30pm as well.

A couple of pics of the car, after spending 10years and a small fortune I was as nervous as a honeymoon bride as I had only driven the car for a few miles on the road and the the first time I spun the wheels was on the start line on the first run. Being in the first batch each morning for the first run the road was always wet and slippery.

My two seconds of fame was the lovely overhead shot of my Golden Sand E Type Roadster, it was a magnificant event and I thought the documentary captured the spirit really well.

Pity that the 2013 event clashes with a HRC classic meet, which will impact on race entries. Great doco though those trees looked scarily close...

They are, as a couple have discovered.

Just a brilliant event and run in right manner with a bit of old jibbing and some real history on show, both human and machinery.
Just love the attitude of Alan Woolf, such a cool guy and family, which rubs off on all who are lucky to know them.
