Hi there

I'm the webmaster of the Autobahnstormers Car Club (6-cyl rear drive Vauxhalls and Opels)

We were a major part of the RAF Marham track day event just gone (2nd Sept) - I know some of you were there

Just thought I'd say Hi and share some pictures. I'll post some in the relevant thread on here

I was the one with the white Vauxhall Senator with the flames down the side 8)

Thanks mate, that's just made my day!

Still looking for one certain video, where I managed to drift all 3 of the corners of the pit chicane perfectly - nobody seems to have caught it on vid as far as I can tell.....

I have only been on the ABS forum for about 2 years and I have 5000 odd posts so far :oops: and that's with pruning the main forums from time to time reducing my post count by 300 odd every time! (I am the webmaster though so I have an excuse for such behaviour!)

But I'm not the original post whore of that forum and I never will be - Ian Marsh has that title with over 10,000 posts and posting more per day than I do!

I would love to, in fact it's partly the reason why I have shown my face on here too - It would seem that you guys have a fair amound of practical days out on the track, and I want to get onto some drifting days for sure!

I need to rebuild my car first though, but that shouldn't be too long now - it's almost finished, so I just need to collect it on a trailor, change a few gaskets on the engine, then refit the engine, rear axle and interior, then MOT it and tax it! I'll put up a thread on my car sometime soon for people who are interested.

Welcome to BP :thumb:
Unfortunately the only drifting i do is when my arse comes of my MTB and slides down a muddy bank. ;)
