GADC 4th Birthday Challenge

The clues are in the posts who have already achieved it. Asda despite the size of the car park is always going to be pot luck. I’ve not got it myself but I don’t intend to visit Asda anymore. Just got to find the time to get to my new targets.

Also another reason if you’re super competitive that if you’ve got a subject that’s different to the way everyone else is targeting it, you should probably keep it close to your chest and not reveal it until close to ending date so others don’t have the chance to copy your tactic. :smirk:

Have you considered getting someone at ground level to talk to red and blue car owners as they arrive and ask for a bit of cooperation? I was debating that the other day!

This photo just makes me wonder why you didn’t choose red and yellow cars, for the full Connect 4 effect… :wink:

Because we are not sadists.

Most common colours seem to be white, black and silver although there is a disturbing trend amongst high end vehicles to be horrible shades of 1970s brown.

Red and blue are not uncommon whereas yellow certainly is.

Just look at all the pictures that will roll in of car parks with rows of red and blue cars. There will be very few yellow ones amongst them.

I think I can picture the shade of brown you mean. Completely unfathomable as a choice in my book.

Of course you’re right about yellow being a relatively less common colour. It’s just the photo you posted immediately made me think of Connect 4, and the need to post a glib comment outweighed my common sense… not for the first time.

We are not immune from doing that either :cowboy_hat_face:

I know where one is

not!

I hate to be yet another karting track, but what can you do? It’s proven and there are plenty of them about. This was a skin-of-the-teeth job. I only got 2 minutes of footage. Half of that was going up and coming back down, the rest was basically the last lap of the race as they all headed back into the pits.
