Could be Dai he does live at the bottom of town.

That's years old BTW.

Had to search for this thread, I thought there was more on it but... Better than making a new one, maybe...

You must have seen all the yanks LS-swapping just about anything, with parts off the shelf it hardly needs any brains to do it at all. However, those crazy Russians have a more, er, ad hoc approach: 7.0l V8 ZIL engine into... Lada

What's the betting it'll turn into a pretzel the first time he floors it?

Previously I saw they were running a Lada with 3 engines in it (sort of) so I guess it'll work, however briefly.

Terrifying I love all the safety gear...

Holy crap. I would not like to have to share a track with him! Ridiculously, dangerously aggressive driving. Tuned up a shitbox, bought a helmet for posing, but didn't bother to buy a cage, seat, harness, suspension, decent tyres and he's probably running standard brakes with value pads too. Fancy footwork, but zero finesse!


Now here's someone who knows how to drive the Nordschleife properly (he drives ring taxi, does instruction, and races), driving somebody else's considerably smaller car for the first time. Looks like he's driving much slower, but he does bridge-to-gantry in a very similar time as the guy above. Look how much more in control of the car he is though - he's not just understeering into corners hoping his £15 retreads will find some grip before the barrier and bullying other drivers out the way

Hope to get the AMG out there in a few months. Hopefully it'll be torrential rain again, so much fun and so little traffic! (and so little tyre wear *COUGH*)

Meanwhile, in, er... Holland

There are subtitles (shame there aren't for Garage 54, I hate the voice over) but I've watched quite a few of his videos and I'm already picking up some Dutch - apparently camshaft is knockarse and gearbox is smellbag
