Nice looking Eunos there! Are those wheels Smoor's by any chance?

You were also at the 'Ring at the same time as us last year back in September, I remember watching both of you giving it some, they're rapid motors, and perfect for the 'Ring!!

I think Alex went with you too, he's got a grey G40, you should persuade him to come along as well!

LOL, small world, Alex was in my passenger seat going out there and back, he's an Admin on Fast Classics
He's trying to get the car ready for April, but Im sure he'd consider a passenger trip in August too, I might ask him!

The wheels are Panasports, custom order in 15", they usually come in 16" and 13", extremely light weight. They're my road wheels currently, I have another set for my R888's, but this is subject to change hopefully as they are a b***h to clean during the winter. I dont even bother these days!

It seems you have lots of money, plus expert knowledge of the Nurburgring. Will you marry me?

13" eh? Hmmmm Might have to look into some as they are rather nice!

I know what you mean about wheels, I have winters and summers for my daily, but I end up leaving the summer wheels on far too late and there's no point changing 'em then!!

Yeah, I believe Alex is waiting for a subframe conversion for the G to come through, something I've just ordered for my GT as well! I think I'll sign up on fastclassics, but if I'm not careful my entire favourites is going to be full of forums!!

Hello All,

Phil and I will be joining you all this year. Some of you may remember us from 2005, we were in the black clubby with orange swirly stickers on it.

We're bringing Phil's 1976 MkII Capri, and my pride and joy - an '89 XR3i cabrio. <pauses for all the Essex jokes lol>. I'll not be doing a lot of Ring thrashing, just hanging out for some sunshine and some laughs!!

i shall be joining you this year in my mini1380 for my first trip , just getting it put back together after engine rebuild after melting the main bearing and trashing the cam and its bearings .

engine only did 2000miles found to be a problem with the timing chain hitting the cover putting metal filling throught the oil pump trashing it and droping the oil pressure so the engine builder rebuilt it for free as it was a oversite by him, more powerfull and better than before
