Found a fair few old images of a shoot we did at the beginning of last year, maybe even earlier! None of the cars look like this anymore, and the white eunos and FD3S are no longer driven by any of us and have been replaced with a Fiat Coupe and another FD3S respectively. I'll update with current images as soon as we are all free and can find somewhere half decent to shoot. Just thought they were worth adding so you can see the evolution of the cars a little more. Anyway, on with the pics:
Back in June I went down to Dorset for a hoon around a tank testing/teaching facility. Now this is serious bizniss! Proper military, proper tanks around, and as we were doing a Nurburgring-tourist-session style blat around the concrete access roads in the middle of a fake war environment, proper risk of damage to stuff like cars, and us.
My car was completely not ready, the brakes, suspension and tyres all not what I wanted, but hey. The day was put on to raise money for Help for Heroes, which is sweet as fuck and a properly good cause anyway - but raising money by blatting around a track that's never been opened up like this before? How could I say no!
It rained in the afternoon, which meant some low speed fun, but not too much! People were crashing all around and I kinda wanted to drive home myself - not sat in a cab talking to a fat, sweaty guy stuffing a Ginsters in his piehole.
So that's that. Made a sweet weekend of it by crashing at Kyle's, and going clay pigeon shooting the day before. What's better than shooting shit and driving like a twat?
This pic is from last week, passenger seat rails in-progress - welded in and gone over with seam sealer. Seats are both in now, just need to find the rest of the harness. Wouldn't be fussed as I'm only missing the crotch strap, but it's got the buckle on!
Did a mock up on the MX5 to see what the Jenveys looked like. Couple of issues to get round, and waiting for parts is driving me up the fucking wall. Got nothing to do, but so much needs to be done.
