worlds fastest

Indian. Norton. Classics stripped back racing machines. Restored and displayed. Every mechanical facet exposed and expressed. Designed for speed, top speed, and top spot on the podium. The bravado involved in throwing these deep into the corner or holding the throttle open for what must seem like an eternity is truly something. Having said that, seeing these in the metal, stirs a desire to own a well crafted racing bike. Metal with soul. Imagine the stories.

Join the Club - We Smoke P1

Joel and I installed his new BC Golds and dropped his S15 on some 17x9 +15 Buddy Club P1 racing rims. Tidy result. Welcome to the club. Still tinkering with the ride height on both cars until satisfaction is reached. More low to come.





Spotted

Spied my old AE86 turbo in town.... sped after it and snapped this shot as it turned off. According to reports from B, it now has a levin front end, full kit, respray, reworked engine package and larger turbo. Very nice. Red line tail lights are definitely the best look for hatches.

Audi Quattro Concept 2010

Remember the Audi Quattro S1 Group B rally car.... new design based on the RS5 with 100mm shorter chassis. I say make a RWD drive version. Concept car sketches always do it for me. Check out the rest here.

Spitting Fuel

Car started pumping out plumes of white smoke on the motorway and stuttering. Thought I had blown a head gasket or worse a piston. Limped home, car died in my driveway just before the hump grrr. Wouldn't start. Builder next door pushed me over the hump, and rolled it into the garage sweet. Got it started after jumping it and it was pumping large amounts raw fuel a metre out the exhaust, not so sweet. So, too much fuel? Replaced a few things including a suspected bad coil pack and checked the injectors were seated to see if fuel was leaking past the o ring. No better. Replaced the Sard adjustable fpr with the factory Nissan item. Problem solved!
