1º Encontro de clássicos do Portal dos Clássicos - Costa Nova, Aveiro

25/26 de Abril
Grande fim de semana na Costa nova em Aveiro.O Manta participou no 1º Encontro Nacional do Portal dos Classicos.Uma exelente organização, e um convivio memorável.
Last weekend was my Manta’s first time in Old cars meetings.I’ve driven about 200km to the meeting. I was a little concern but confident, about if the car would get there with no troubles.The trip went pretty well, I’ve only stopped once to check all the levels but everything was perfect.When I arrived at the meeting … new check up and two screws missing!!! The carb solex diaphragm was loose. But with other people help I’ve improvised a solution.The meeting took place in a Camping park near Aveiro. Two days meeting new people and admiring old cars. There were some entertaining like local museum visits, slide arrow shooting, slalom, etc…It was perfect!

Aqui ficam alguns momentos:
Here are some photos and videos:

Slalom de regularidade ... 8º lugar!




Foi o meu primeiro slalom, e ainda por cima levava a minha esposa a pisar o pedal do travão que ela tem lá no lugar do pendura!O medo dela era tanto que levou o cronometro na mão e nem conseguiu ver os tempos!
No entanto adorámos a experiência!

I also participated in the slalom race … and for my first time the 8th place was really great. It was regularity slalom. The important was to be as fast on the going as in the coming, for each second of difference there was 10 seconds penalization.I’m also glad because the winner was an awesome Opel reckord D Sprint.



Ambiente magnifico ... e muitas fotos!
