York

It raining pretty much all day Sunday. The hail hit on Saturday. We took a drive to York. It's about 70km East and slightly north of Perth. It rained all the way up. York is famous for a couple of things, most recently though for it's motor museum. It was also the site outside of Perth chosen by the early settlers as most desirable to graze cattle.

 A couple of old 3 wheel beasties in the corner!
 What they were driving in Europe not so long ago... very sheik!
This little Kart is rocket powered and was driven in the USA by Rossco McGlasson at 253mph. It is powered by a nitrogen peroxide rocket. It couldn't be run in Australia because the US determined the the fuel could be used by terrorists to propel their armaments.
