stooH Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 That's a stunning looking circuit, wonder how much one of those costs to put together, love the rise and fall at the far end of the circuit up and around that copse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipex Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 But it already meets all of those criteria, so why bother changing it? What, so it's slower than itself, less reliable than itself, and sh1tter than itself? My modifications obviously haven't worked! :sad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just found a vid of the place... kcd_Rn3FHa8 Ahh the glorious Alfa GTV6, one of my all time favourite cars ever, that looks like a South Africa spec one, but I bet it isn't, still, perfect balance, light weight, best V6 engine ever made, and a ridiculously awkward fit for anyone over 5ft tall!

patently Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 Regarding car age and the 18-30 thing, I recall Omi and I agreed that cars in production or designed 18-30 years ago should be eligible On that basis, my 61-plate Caterham is eligible - it was in production over 50 years ago Chateau looks like a fantastic place!

garcon magnifique Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 So an RS3 would be eligible if you could find one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 So an RS3 would be eligible if you could find one... Based on the 18-30 rule, I reckon you could find posts on here from 1993 about someone placing an order for one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theduisbergkid Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 Fantastic, innit ? Saw my bro-in-law at the weekend, he of Scumball fame, he's now scouring EBay for a suitable car. I've suggested Alfa 166, he fancies a MK2 Golf Gti, let's see what EBay turns up :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4ttm4son Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 I know it doesn't count because it's only 14 years old and not the best Golf, but isn't this stupidly cheap? Vw golf mk3 vr6 highline 3 door - Club GTI £550 for a tidy mk3 VR6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 That'll be fine. Just take a spare 10 litres of oil with you. Oval bores anyone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipex Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 If it's anything like Geoffs was, he'll need a water tanker following him about too! Oh, and it's a Hemi Mook, oval bores indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 No, you muppet - all VR6s wear their bores oval, which is why they all burn oil. Not that you would understand anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipex Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Yes Mook I got that, hence you can legitimately describe a knackered oil burning example as being a Hemi, because the bores are oval! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 I've never, ever heard that expression before! AFAIK, Hemi engines are so-called because of the head design (i.e. the top of the combustion chamber is hemispherical, like the top of a ball).

Nelson_R32 Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 Just woken up :D I would be up for a Scumball if you were ever to organise another. I'm about to buy my first house but want to do something mad before I tie myself into a mortgage for the next 25 years! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
