Well I have just got back from one of the most amazing trips of my life so far?!! nope thats not exaggerating.
.. seriously an amazing trip!I spent from Friday till Monday at the Nurburgring, something that I have always wanted to do since buying the car from a fellow club member
Fizz 3 years ago (he took it round there just before I bought it from him) and now 3 years later I have done it! Ive earned my stickers haha.
The planning and build up to the holiday was intense, with everything time wise being extremely tight! I left on the Thursday night and didnt get my car back from 3s for some much needed attention till that same Thursday morning.
.. so yeah very tight Whilst Im talking about it, just want to say a huge thank you to James and the team at 3s
/ ToyotaGT for getting all the bits needed for my car and having the work all done for me even though I honestly did give you guys a tight schedule!Ok so we set off right on schedule and all was going really well, until.
...... Well we had just got into Belgium, 3.5 hours into the journey and my car decided that it was going to dump its engine coolant in a petrol station, much to the amusement of the truck drivers filling up.
... I started to panic of course.But luckily the mates I was with are absolute geniuses with anything mechanical and were able to quickly diagnose it as being this little coolant hose that goes from the block to the throttle body and which only runs on idle.
.. a clip on the hose was not secured in the right place and therefore water was pouring out at idle.
so once that clip was back on and they had checked my whole engine over
(swearing about mr2s being inconvenient to work on the whole time), we were then good to go and the car performed like a dream for the rest of the trip, even though I was hesitant with it at first....We all were splint among 9 cars, of which there was:
2 x CRXs, 1 x S2k, 1 x R33 Skyline, 1 x s14, 1 x RX8, 1 x Celica n/a, my bros Ford Ranger and my 2
Anyway Im babbling on, so I shall start with the pics.
... they are taken on various cameras (some mobile phone, some hand held and others dslr) and the quality reflects that, I will do my best to group them into an organised collection.First off.
.. our cars.This CRX is an incredibly quick track machine.
...
But sadly did not make it back home under its own steam.
.. nothing sinister... just the engine died after some hard track abuse
The newest car of all I think managed to use the most fuel and oil too.
.. welcome to rx8 ownership..
This is where it spent pretty much all of its time

The amount of pictures I took of that rex worry me too lol
anyway on with the others
As Im sure you can imagine.
. he is rather proud of this pic
Yep it was as painful as it looks.
...
This next car was the S14 that was with us, a real drifting machine and I can safely say my most fun lap of all round the Nur
 hehe sideways Nur action
The celica
S2k
Yep the badge is the wrong way round.
..
My bros truck, support vehicle!!! Hehe
Yep even that one earned its sticker.
..
