Black English mk2 in Belgium (de Panne)

Spotted this one a few times in in front of a tobaco shop in "de Panne". It's standing there since last Friday and it's still standing on the same spot. Seems like it's broken down there or something :-k Number plate is G54-WGW (right one in the picture) http://i861.photobucket.com/albums/...

Re: My tubby in Belgium

Some pictures/videos from last year. Went 2 times to the Nordschleife and did 1 trackday at Abbeville (France). Didn't had any unexpected costs this year (knock on wood) except 2 small capacitors costing 0,06€ each. Abbeville: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puj671CB29o https://www.youtube.com/watch...

Re: Red SW20 @ Nürburgring Nordschleife 25/07

Exactly, and shorts and t-shirt not going to end well if there's a big off. Thing is, you can do what you want on the ring. Helmets, gloves, overalls, ... all of that is up to you. You can just arrive there in your 33hp fiat panda, buy a lap ticket and go driving between M3's, GT3RS's, GT-R's,... w...

Problem solved, the gasket between the head and the exhaust manifold was causing the problem :thumleft:

[Mk2] [Turbo] Weird engine noise (with video)

My MR2 started making this noise. When the engine is cold it's even worse. After running +/-2 minutes it only makes this noise when giving throttle (as seen in the video)

Any ideas?

Circuit des Ecuyers (France)

My first time on this track (and my first proper trackday). The weather was quite bad, showers around noon so the track was never 100% dry. Nevertheless, I had some great fun, although I'm even more disappointed now for not having an LSD Oh and yes, I really should be heel-toeing, but I just can't s...

Re: My tubby in Belgium

Well, alot of (mostly negative) things happened the last few months. The 16th of September I left for another 3 days of Nordschleife-fun. Saturday morning, after doing only 1 lap, my battery light went on ... Seemed that my alternator went bad. Since I was 250 miles from home I wouldn't be able to m...
