The team of testers checking my handy work with the "broom of doom" after adjusting Nath's new coilies

If you need any help setting them spring things, just give me a call  - I'm good with a broom!

Anyone wanna declare any lap times, or was the weather wet on both days?

The only timed lap Flora did for me was very damp with rain coming down and we came across an Alfa that had just rolled and a recovery truck in the middle of the track and that was a 9:49  :happy2:

The rest were pretty wet so were in the mid 11's  :scared:

As well as seeing Sabine, this guy was also there



I have to be honest I didnt know who he was, but I do now!  :notworthy:


....I met and had a chat with him at Spa. I didn't know who he was either! He's got a yellow Ford GT40.

.... :drinking: Got back about half-an-hour ago. The day at Spa was by far my favourite - Had an instructor in my passenger seat and did about 15 laps (lost count!) in one hit in the wet with ESP off. I couldn't believe some of the cars I nailed as I had the right tyres for the day.

Some awesome stuff guys! :congrats:
Sabine doesn't do it for me as much as some of those cars!  :notworthy:

Ooh that M3 was just orgasmic in a way I have never felt for a 'Beemer'!  :love:
Looks gorgeous. I wanna see those rims in the flesh!



Umm! Pure sex. Nice to see a mk6 gti too.

JPC, were you bribing all these drivers or something?

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Hahahaaaa

The madman returns :grin:

My slowest was 10.35 in the wet with 4 up and the TOYO R888's :scared: :evilgrin:

My fastest two laps of the day were 9.10 with Nathan in and my first ever lap when it was only damp.

First ever lap was epic with 2 porkers and 2 fezza 360's getting a new ass ripped. :driver:

Spa Francourchamps was monumentally good, only spoilt by rain in the afternoon, but that didn't stop me doing another 8 laps in it.

If you thought that the Nurburgring had some machinery there, wait till I get my Spa pics up :drool:. Even a NASCAR racer was there :jumping: soooooo fast.

He's loving them and I'm kinda jealous as they look really, really good. :drool:
