When darkness falls, it’s usually time to stop racing and head for the bar. Not if you’re racing in the Malachi
Comp safaris (racing against the clock in Land Rovers, for those unfamiliar with the sport), are enduringly popular with drivers and spectators alike.

The race was spread over 25 hours, with day-and-night runs of a two-mile course.
