Krzys Posted September 18, 2017 Author Share Posted September 18, 2017 Not much to report here, another oil change done and a check over. Almost at 80k miles! Yesterday I went to a 'Getaway driver' experience at the Curborough sprint circuit in Lichfield. It was a right laugh! In the morning we had some practice runs of the track but in the afternoon we got one go at the robbery. You have to set off and then stop once you've crossed the start line, get out and rob the bank. Bring the briefcase back to your car, stow it inside and then belt up before completing two laps of the track. It was hilarious my mates and I trying to run, we aren't built for it that's for sure! Anyway, I've found a couple of photos from the day and I had my GoPro with me so I'm going to cobble together the footage. Couple of photos of my mates' Subaru's too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burbleboy Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Sounds a right laugh! Done a 007 experience down south years ago, hired a Z4 for the weekend to make the most of it. These events are well worthwhile! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the 2.0 engine but handy to learn drifting....in the stoney carpark before the event organisers told us to stop 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krzys Posted October 9, 2017 Author Share Posted October 9, 2017 So Bob has now hit 80k miles, recently had some fresh oil to reward his service. Then I gave him a good pasting Few weekends ago I took part in a 'Getaway driver' experience at the Curborough Sprint Circuit near to Lichfield. You had to set off the timer, stop, get out and rob the 'bank', then get back in the car and complete two laps of the track. I was a lot of fun! Then the weekend after that I decided I'd have my first ever go at the 1/4 mile! Wasn't great, 15.2 seconds but I had fun! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krzys Posted October 11, 2017 Author Share Posted October 11, 2017 Yeah down here in the civilised world there's always something to do but even I have to travel around for it! Nottingham is well placed I think though for a s**thole! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted February 26, 2018 Author Share Posted February 26, 2018 Time for an update! Bob is showing his age in the face now so I spent an afternoon fingering it, this is how it went. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
