Audi quattro Rallye A2 (TT-02)

The legendary Audi quattro hardly needs further explanation: The superiority of the four-wheel drive in combination with a powerful turbo engine made itself felt very quickly, especially in motorsport, and gave the Finnish rally ace Hannu Mikkola his first world championship title as early as 1983.

GridOto.com – Relying on the future rally concept with gadgets is indeed a differentiator for the Honda Adventure Days 2019 event with other events.

Participants must follow the waypoint and there are no boundaries. But because this is not an official competition, for those who still want to relax while fun is also not a problem.

Roughly I want an hour of coffee and coffee, stop by the food stall, and eat first too ok!

But it turned out that the committee gave a shock of shock for participants who finished the fastest on stage 1-2 which started from Brown Canyon Semarang – Kampung Rawa Ambarawa – Bukit Grenden.

The fastest finisher of each class turned out to be given 1 unit of Honda Africa Twin you know!

Uh, not a real motorbike, but a Honda Africa Twin model kit from Tamiya with a scale of 1/6.

There is Yustira Ramadani from the Wing class who successfully finished fastest with 5 hours 51 minutes.

While in the Big Wing class, there was Om Diki from South Tangerang who successfully passed the finish line with a time of 6 hours 5 minutes 12 seconds.

Well it’s pretty good even if I don’t have a real Honda Africa Twin , at least I have a model kit that is very similar to the original!

Appreciation for the fastest finisher, model kit Honda Africa Twin with a scale of 1/6
