It wasn't about speed, you had to go from point A to point B in exactly X minutes (usually more than 150 minutes) FLAT. A minute under or over - and that was a penalty.
On the way you had special trials where you had to cover a few miles in a few minutes, down to the second. FLAT.
Very fun!
We had 4 w123s in the end from our Mercedes Benz Club, one of them being yours truly.
While the odometer on my car did not work (at all, neither the total nor the partial one) - I did have the speedo work, and a stop watch. As I couldn't figure out much at the special trials, I did the best I could.
(E.g. cover 2.3 miles in 300 seconds FLAT - I could measure 300 seconds, but wasn't sure about how much 2.3 miles are...)
All in all, I got third place at less than a second from second place. Right
Haven't seen any pics anywhere, as soon as I find some I shall return with photographic evidence.

This has been a very fun and good experience - Regularity Rallies are really sweet!
