Circuit des Rempart 2009


There have been a lot of anniversaries in the car world - 100 years of Morgan and Bugatti - plus fifty years of the mini. Here at Angoulême the Circuit des Remparts celebrates the seventieth edition, hosting a mini. This is the 1071cc mini of Denis Derex from 1963. I took this picture on the short chute approaching the Virage du théâtre by holding the camera through the fence and hoping for the best.
