Our boys do it for real

Hi Jewelz,

The car is fairly stock.....hmmm :narnar:

1) Nismo suspension Kit, Strut Brace. (Its gotta handle)
2) Bigger front disks, semi race pads, braided brake lines. (You gotta be able to stop.)
3) Engine Mods. (200 bhp stock.... Gimmi some more grunt.)
Free flow exhaust, induction kit, front mount intercooler, colder spark plugs (power up to 240 bhp)
Boost controller, uprated fuel pump, V-Power fuel (power up to 260 bhp)

Stock turbo. The fuel injectors are now close to being maxed out, and are the current power bottle neck.

4) 17" Wider wheels and tyres for some grip and bling. (Some tatty 18" wheels n tyres for track day play.)

That's it, my play thing :thumb:

Steady on Deetz, he's only young! He'll be following you round like a puppy.

Hi
Deetz has forgot to mention my highlight of the day, During one of his drifts he lost track of where his steering wheel was pointing, when he gained traction we suddenly speared of track at 90 degrees travelled about 50 foot across the grass bouncing around. Unfortunately i haven got a picture, but honestly it was so funny.
Cheers D for a great day.

Ahem, of course I deny any responsibility for running a mere 10 feet off course when the wheel turned out to be 360 degrees off from where it I thought it was. :whistling2:

A bit more dramatic than when doing it in LFS.

The only surprise is that Stu waited this long to post this bit of embarrassing information. :haha:

Ive been spying in the sxoc forum to see if any photographic evidence turned up but lucky for D i havnt seen any.:crying:

Hello chaps, thought I would dig out this old thread as me and Deetz have been back to Oulton. Deetz was on passanger and photographer duty this time and I got to have a go as my car has been fixed.
Deetz let slip his offical photo taking duties as he was too busy blagging a ride off anything that moved, but luckily someone else did. Just thought I would share what I think is a cracking photo. Im pictue number 9 on the link.
Cheers Stoo.

Terrific steering technique! Or were you swatting flies?

It is hard to tell from that photo but if you notice where im looking thats the direction we were travelling in. Sideways before i even got to the corner so much fun!.
It didn't always go to plan one time i went in a bit hot and there was mud on the road. I stopped about 3" from the tyre wall. My eyes were on stalks.

A blooming excellent day. I spent most of the morning going round with Stu or his dad in Stuart's Mad Evo 7. Then I started codging lifts round in other people's car's. A total blast, lots of different cars and abilities.

The corner where that photo was taken of Stu, he really was almost completely facing the wrong way as he flicked his car into the hairpin, brilliant.
