One of the last.

After 4 years, I'm taking a step back from the Time Attack circuit. It's seen drives throughout England, and the odd run into Wales and Scotland too. I've gained friends throughout the paddock, through cars built purely for speed, and engineering that's blown my lil' mind at times, along with burning two fingerprints clean off.

The people make the sport, and carried me through some of the best and worst of my life so far to see parts of the world I might not have otherwise, along with more "rapidly disassembled" engine and gearbox parts than I care to remember. 

It's been a pleasure.

P.S. Might still do Donington. πŸ‘€

A rare pair of gems from that time somebody at SEAT decided to put a 2.0 16v in a ton of 3 door hatchback and go rallying. Good cars. πŸ‘Œ

Mk2 Golf Rallye...or is it? πŸ‘€

@tamworthaudio have built this R32 engined, DSG drivetrain swapped genuine Mk2 Golf Rallye, complete with their signature excellent audio, a TT dash, SLK seats, running on some 17" BBS CH wheels, hiding a set of Tarrox big brakes.

Nothing short of a serious bit of kit.

Hear me out...

The best EJ9 in the country.
I said what I said.

🚘: @hypercut_films 
🌏: @_paced._ 

This absolute peach of an EJ9 has been lovingly stripped down and built back up using some of the best parts in the game. Years were spent accumulating parts, perfecting the theme, chasing the rare goods and all for the love of the iconic 6th gen hatch.

I've been around long enough to know when people haven't cut corners, and it's safe to say that Kurt, and the wonderful team at @onamission_uk , truly have set a great standard of what a good K-Swap 6th gen hatch can be like.

This is how you do a Honda build.

Moments after I took this photo, the radiator split...good thing I've got a brand new @koyoradjapan  to go on really! Along with a new OEM thermostat, fresh coolant, OEM rad fans & expansion tank, and @soarsperformance UZ swap Rad Hoses. 

Crucially, a hoard of cable ties, the Fiesta expansion tank and the cheap single universal rad fan will be binned, which should be the end of the cooling issues, and have it ready to hopefully do some track time...aka blow the gearbox up, again.

It'll be a good car eventually. 🫠
