Nothing special except the nostalgy of being there

Wishing there was more hillclimbing events in USA.

God ,papy got almost eaten alive by the greedy AX

Did you tried the AX sport Frenchy ? it was even more deadly.

I love the comment at about 4:50 ," we have to put it back on wheel ?"

Now I know why R5 Turbos are so hard to find these days....

I owned a 1980 R5 (bought new). Loved the quirky little beastie. I replaced it with a Shelby GLHS in 1986.

My regards,

Yeah grand'pa and the AX was funy.

The R5 turbo Maxi was quite wild, 350HP out of 1.5L engine. The street version of the turbo 2 killed quite some kids in France. Most kids used to come in a curve, the turbo would abruptly kick in and they would fly off.
