Hi guys,

Just joined and since I was asked so nicely with my registration I thought I had better say hello.

I play with cars during the day for work, so it maybe an unhealthy hobby but I am addicted to anything with wheels and an engine and if it spits flames then even better.

The toy list changes regularly but it currently includes:
an ongoing 60s volvo amazon hotrod project, and part drift car when it gets finished
a dull Bimmer day car (estate for getting parts for the projects. )
a big classic Jag when i can afford the fuel to run it
A very played with Honda CRX SiR Mk2
A silly motorbike with more power than I am ever going to learn to control
And a Silvia S13 competition drift car currently sitting in a dock in Japan.

Once the Silvia arrives then expect to see me trying to learn to drive it properly at some drift events. It has been almost 2 years since i have done much drifting and never in anything with as much power as that car, so it may take a while. One of the toys probably needs to make a trip to the 'ring before the end of the year too as I have never been yet.

Cheers guys,

Unfortunately the silvia isnt booked on its boat until next week, so there is still over a month until it gets here. Still, plenty of time to clear some space for it, but i am not very good at selling cars. I wish i could keep them all.

Hi guys,
Since it is the S13 that seems to have got the attention then here is a picture of it that is teasing me each day until it arrives:

Not sure abut the bling wheels, but love the deep dish. Doesn't matter much anyway as I will need to get some spare sets the rate this thing will eat rear tyres. I will probably go for something smaller diameter too to keep down the costs. [/img]
