World Time Attack Challenge 2010

I’m genuinely excited about this… so many top teams competing. I hope there is some good coverage.
And check this post out on Nori Yaro, it’s worth a look.

BDC 2010 Semi Pro Rd.2 @ Llandow

1st of May…

I might be getting a lift from a friend and if not I’ll take a train and cycle the 3 miles from the station to the track, regardless, I really want to be there. Excite!

TE37 SL – That's It…

… I want them now. I’m a sucker for TE37s and Gun Metal or Black is how wheels should be coloured. Perfect Match.

FD 2010 Round 1: Gittin!

Congrats to Vaughn Gittin Jr. for the win. Unfortunately I was out during the live stream so I’m going to catch up on it now over at FormulaD… Hope they will have a live stream for each event as the coverage I’ve seen so far is top notch and great for people like me abroad. FormulaD is looking great this year.

Sightseeing & Update – A4

Update:

This Saturday I’m going to Franciacorta to check out a track day, it’s fairly close and as much as I’d like to go round I’d also like to photograph and see what kind of cars run there.
The Superstars organizers were giving out free tickets for the first round at Monza on Sunday, so naturally I got some. Superstars is an Italian run Super Touring championship and it has an awesome lineup of cars competing. They have to be 4 door and they are generally pretty big, M5s, M3s, Panameras, 300Cs, C63 AMGs, Quattroportes and so on… pretty mean. They also have a GTS championship running along side and it’s a sort of GT2 class.
I borrowed a 300mm lens from a friend so I’ll be able to shoot a few nice photos…

Sightseeing:

On my way to Milan I spotted one of the nicest Minis I’ve ever seen. Even though they are very popular here, I still quite like them. It was nicely lowered and the exhaust was loud! When he put his foot down it sounded like a straight through exhaust and it went too! Couldn’t tell what wheels it had but they looked like OZ Superleggera. The front had the usual fog lights which I think are a must.

As I went by I nodded, which I found quite amusing.

News – Revolution TA-2 TC2000 RWD Record

Revolution has finally broken the RWD and Rotary record at Tsukuba with a blisteringly quick 54.913, at the Amuse Track Day.
The previous RWD record holder was the Top Fuel S2000 with a 55.350.
