Default My weekend!

A good friend of mine drives and A4 which is beautiful and we regularly fight over hwo is going to drive. Last saturday he arrived up and i expectde the suual im driving,no im driving arguement....
until i walked outside and saw this on my driveway:




needless to say he drove haha!!

It was his fathers and he let him borrow it for the day, if anyone has had the opportunity to have a rip in one you will understand the power and feeling of it. The noise is like teutonic plate moving at full pelt creating a rip in the earths surface, its just unbelievable.

A few more pics:















Also a bit of history, that big yellow crane is owned by Harland and Wolf, the company that built the Titanic and that is the harbour in which it was built.

I am not sure of the exact loaction but let me guess, Liver Pool ?

F430 with Challenge wheels and in Rossa Corsa, The only thing that it begs to have is the Kreisegg exhaust system.

sorry alroumi its Belfast, at the Titanic docks. That is the HSS which goes to Stranraer Scotland. but very good guess as Liverpool docks look very similar.

I loved the day in it, was great fun. just inhspired me to work extra hard and get one sooner rather than later.
