[peteslag]

Just to let you know, I have had a look at your thread and will be unashamedly pinching a few ideas!!!!!

Those front splitters look fantastic.

 

[z3cade]

I've still got them if you want them? £15 and there yours

They just need screwing to the underside of your bumper, its dead easy..

Pm me if your interested

Very smart, You've made some nice touches there! Only thing I'm not entirely sold on are the Chrome tailight trims

 

[peteslag]

They aren't aerials, who would put aerials that big on a car!!!!!!

They are masts actually, I'm planning a cross channel amphibious excursion. :-bd

 

[g8jka]

Looks good B-)

You need a stubby aerial though to replace the original mast fitted to the back wing though

 

[shantybeater]

Very tidy

The fruits of my labour, this photo was taken on the Nurburgring. I was chasing down a GT40 so was pushing the car very hard at the time this photo was taken. The suspension upgrades seem to have worked well, the car looks planted in the photo. The eibach springs really have worked wonders with the cars handling.

Hi Ron, hope all is well. Who needs to drive fast in kent, take it nice and easy and take in all that perfect Kent scenery.

Eh up Moz, I know how you like your photos so here are a few more;

Meet the flying sisters

Me at the gates of hell!!!!

This was my favourite car of the day, looked and sounded fantastic

BY FAR, the fastest car of the day. God knows he had under the bonnet but it shook my car it went past so fast (spitting flames as it went)

My car with its badge of honour

We went all round the area, checking out all the twisty roads around Nurburg. All in all it was a fantastic trip, definitely going back.

 

[shantybeater]

very jealous! always wanted to go to the ring. What were the overall costs if you don't me asking? (travel,fuel,laps etc...)

 

[MAURICE THE MARTIAN]

:

Actually Mozza, compare your belly to the belly on the flying sister on the far right hand side. Where were you about 7 days a go?

This trip was a bit last minute.com, we weren't sure if it was on till quite late on. If I do another, I'll start a thread and see if there is any interest. If so we could have a Zedring day!!! Just plant that heavy right foot of yours Moz and let the car do the rest.

very jealous! always wanted to go to the ring. What were the overall costs if you don't me asking? (travel,fuel,laps etc...)

From Folkstone to the ring it takes about 6 hours via the channel tunnel. Here are some costings:

Channel tunnel = £100 return
Fuel = a tank of fuel there, a tank back plus another tank throwing the car around the various twisty roads near to ring (utterly brilliant roads)
Nurburing = 96 euros for a 4 lap ticket or 26 euros per lap (you buy your tickets at the entrance)
Hotels were inexpensive, we used booking.com
£30 for a european driving kit including triangle, high vis vest, extinguisher, blah, blah, blah (bloody French!)

Here is the Nurburgring calender:

There isn't much touristy things to do nearby but Cochem is well worth a visit, full of stunning scenery, great restaurants and it isn't too far from the ring:

I've been putting this of for years, a crying shame because it is easy to get there and not as far as you might think. I should have done it a long time a go. Hope this helps Shantybeater, if you need any more info just let me know
