Bizz @Extreme Torque Show Manchester - First Win!!! :D

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

 

As some of you may know I was at the Extreme Torque Show this weekend at Old Trafford in Machester, competing with 14 other lads on a small, yet technical track. The weather on Saturday was rubbish as it was most places but it dried up in the afternoon and on Sunday to let us have more fun.

 

Anyway this is only the 4th time I'd driven the car so went out just to get more seat time but it turned into a bit more than that

 

So here are some of the pics and vids in the best order I could get them. Unfortunately we didn't record all of the battles but you'll get the idea

 

Suited up and ready Saturday practice

I had the car right at the front as the crowd were loving it. Got lots of people having their pics taken with it and a few autographs were signed

Found the missus hiding in here whilst I was practicing and she actually got to drive it at the end of the event, only at idle but pretty cool

This drew quite a bit of attention

Was a brilliant weekend, really loved driving the car and it worked so well. Was driven hard all weekend and never missed a beat. Got a couple of scars already but nothing major.

 

Massive thanks to Adele, Tarmac, Extreme Torque Show, Corbeau Seats, Clark Customs, 350z-uk, Z-labs, Cosmis Wheels, Opie Oils, Tops signs. etc. etc. and thanks to all you guys for the support through the build, glad it has all been worth it

 

Thanks for reading and hope you enjoy the vids

 

Cheers

For some reason I can't post the vids now, will have to speak with the mods about it tomorrow as I wrecked now. Sorry guys

Sorry about all of the posts but that was the only way I could get the vids up on here. Hope you enjoy watching and make sure the sound is on :)

Well done again Ian and liked the vid's ~ although the event commentator needed to get some more lines, "look at em' smokin' dem tyres" :lol:;)

 

Cheers bud, ha some of Eddie's comments might have been a bit limited but the judging and commentary was probably the best I have witnessed. :) great, chilled out event. Would recommend it to any people wanting to watch drifting or if it's their first drift event as there's more fun and action compared to some of the other series out there

Yeah dude, clive was in the little AE86 we had a few good runs out in practice didn't battle him though.

 

There will be some developments and tweaks being made to the car over the next few weeks whilst I have a little spare time. Get yourself along to something man. I will keep posting up here what events I am doing and when with as much notice as possible
