Hello All,

A week ago today I came back from my 4th and best Annual Nurburgring Trip yet.

Over the week 1000's of pics were taken between myself and friends so I thought i'd share just a few with you, so that those who haven't been can get an insight into why we go.

First off our cars we took this year:

This is Ben's (He's building an LET White Corsa Van in the Projects section) Scooby STI Type UK PPP complete with De-CAT's & 3" Straight through Exhaust. (Managed a 9:13 time with traffic)

Padges (The old owner of my Red Corsa) Leon Cupra R, Complete with £1000 worth of Bilstien Coilovers, Eibach Anti roll bars, REVO Stage 2 chip, BMC filter and custom straight through exhaust

4 up ready for a lap

And on a lap 4 up

Unfortunetely this car had a "little" prang.... on the circuit

He was very lucky considering we lost it at 80mph and did over a 360 degree spin!

Here's the same car after one of our nights out, lol

This is Paul Elise, Billy suspension, Exhaust, filter and enlarged Throttle body.

Andy's Golf GTi took a liking to the Armco on the same corner I crashed in my nova turbo 4 years ago! Doh!!! I was in the car as well.

I drove my trusty new Fabia

Then we met up with a few mates Nova Turbos...

Andy Bishops

And the Imfamous 300bhp Blue beast of Mark Beeson

(Which recorded a PB time of 8:45 incendently which is seriously good going!)

Ok thats enough of our cars.... Onto what was in the Pits..

This M3 CSL managed to crack a disc..... even though it was running Lambo brakes

Oh year! 4 engines and 8 wheels

RC Developements were there in there 1000bhp Evo (Lapping in 7:30mins!!!) but the power was turned down to a "mere" 600bhp for the Ring

Aston DBS!!!

What happens to RX's with lots of power....ouch!

Now for some on track action

Drifting Viper

Whoops

Move over slow coach

The fastest things there

AX on the case... lol

New 2008 Scooby on test

Lexus Hybrid Supercar on test

Cook it yourself Volcanic Rock steak! Simply AWESOME

Some of our group

Midnight on the Ring we got our Ghost Busting gear on...

Pissed up on the track.... Its amazing what you find funny. lol

And finally... This is what happens when someone shouts "Leg it, there's someone coming"

Oh and on the way home we passed this beast

Neil

Its a WRX STI Type UK with PPP.... Quite a mouthful... lol, which basically means it came with 306bhp from the factory, lowered suspension and a host of other mods.

The White Cupra is sexy.

Trip looks amazing.

Is there an anniversary of Corsasport coming up i.e. 10 years? 15 years? I feel a Corsasport trip to the ring is in order. Might even take the 12v round

I bet there is a minimum engine capacity

There were a lot of sexual cars there, but the CLK DTM *droooooollls*

I bloke that drives the same route to work in derby as me has one. Virtually the same straight through, 2003 reg. When it breaks from 30limit to national, the speed and noise is incrediable! On of the loudest cars i have ever heard tho

Exceptional cars tho!

How did the fabia hang out? Bet it was the best one of the lot on the drive down

Doing more than twice the MPG of the impreza!

I wouldnt like to give my car that much abuse tho for 14 mile soild! And i couldnt just cruise round that would defeat the point for me!

Little 1.4 screaming its bollocks off!

Would be awesome in the twisties tho, thats best thing about it for me! (-35mm on full suspension set up with gas shockers on Cav gsi rims with 45 pro tyre!

)

Mine is an STI PPP, Marc. Well, I say that, it's got everything PPP, but the map is different because both cats are removed to give it more power and grunt. Plus, mine's a euro rather than UK, so has a few extras

(Oh, and read the back of the fight club dvd. I think you'll find his name is Jack

)

Looks like an ace time. Fancy it myself but don't wanna risk my motor

Haha, yeah but I already know its unreliable!!!!

Think I would get more out of the Tuscan but its always easier to drive a slower car fast than it is to drive a fast car fast.

Hmmmmm!?
