As we all know, everything in our life evolves along the spiral — everything gets twisted, rotated, transforms onto another level, however, all the events get repeated, people get back and it happens in the same places.
The given photostream is the direct evidence hereto. Everything started few days ago, when i found the old picture of GAZ-21 «Volga» and MI-6 helicopter on the web, and realised that i have something similar in my archive. It turned out to be just the first of tens of pictures, almost identical to the oldies.
I just would like to add that none of pictures were made intentionally to resemble the old ones found on the web. And the special thanks goes to racinghistory.lv for the huge historical photomaterial from the Bikernieki track. The other old pictures are from my own archive and web space.
It was a long waited trip to Russia, land of soviet automobile engineering, to the Gorkiy city (nowadays — Nizhniy Novgorod).
Here in 1932 the plant GAZ was built, where the new soviet cars have been assembled.
In the end of May, during 4 days we managed to visit GAZ museum, N-ring track, where we participated «Gorky Classic» oldtimer motor show , the stage of Dzintara Volga Cup and were lucky to take part in test races on the street supercars. Photos here:
