Im sure the guy who owns this thought i was taking pics as i thought it looked cool, i was however taking them to show how ruined this VXR Nurburgring is (and yes it was a genuine one before they messed it up)

Dont know if you can see them properly but the back of this caddy was full of ball-pool balls, i was so tempted to try and steal them all...

And throw them in the back of this....

Not a fan of the workmanship thats gone into this thing, whats that stuff that comes out of the back of a pidgeon, cos the welding looked remarkably like that in places...

(think it looked miles better last time we went as it had the engine in the front...)

30-08-10, 06:53 PM
Mate you shouldve seen it go, i wish i had gotten more vids of it, the acceleration after each gearchange was brutal, it was like 'squat-fook off-gear-squat-fook off-gear-squat-fook off-let off...... lol




Edit, if you turn your speakers up really loud you hear the time of the golf on that run i did film.....


11.17 seconds with a terminal of 122mph!!

Spudly
30-08-10, 08:40 PM
Front end was space framed Bubba and the engine sits so far forward the rad is in the back, with cool air intakes on the side windows and cooling ducts out of the rear :thumb:

The golf is running an rs2 20v lump as said before and the build thread is something to behold.I can't remember where i saw it but if i can find the thread i will link it here.

31-08-10, 03:02 PM
as i have said on here before the black nova is 2 off my mates and the logo on the back built by 2 piss cans is very true, the car was a great learning curve last year and amazing held up to all its abuse this year, what the future holds for it am unsure defiantly not stopping as it is either new bigger engine or a total different project, its a love hate thing but they have enjoyed doing it and yes it was quicker with engine in front lol
i missed yesterday as my astra sri turbo needs a clutch

Everything there, including that Quattro Golf, is complete and utter turd in comparison to the Z/28.

I would have gotten as far as that then spent the rest of the day licking it.

The grille is the only thing you noticed on the astra lol


The err (C2) install actually i didnt think was too bad, not my cup of tea but as Rob said at the time you can appreciate the time and effort thats gone into it and its pretty clever tbf!

And the nova, well, just LOL lol
