graham59 Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 Oh, just found this one: Here's hooligan Gra driving his REAL TVR 400SE V8 discussed earlier, in the background of this video. Not the quietest car around...bombing down the 2 mile runway. lol It was a TVR car club meeting. The car in the foreground is a straight 6 model... the 'Tuscan' . 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'll cost me a few more pilsners, but it will be worth it - hahaha! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah... so I will need to "encourage" Graham to send a few more hp my way and then also pay you in advance in pilsens to maybe skew your driving sensibilities and prowess? Goodness! This is starting to sound expensive! And some people might get a bit "happy" along the way? We might need to breathalize participants before the competition? But don't discount me yet, Ice. You know what they say about old age and treachery? Edited July 17, 2019 by Tommy T. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reveal hidden contents Reveal hidden contents I've only owned one street rod (in UK) .... known as a 'T-Bucket', with a Rover V8 up front, when in my twenties. Sadly, pics were lost years ago, but what a poser's car that was. lol Some nice footage of my fave motor sport, and machines. Aaah.... 'American Graffiti' . (Only 1/8th mile strip, this one. The regular big strips are 1/4 mile ). . Edited July 18, 2019 by graham59 adddddition 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post GeoffH Posted July 18, 2019 Popular Post Posted July 18, 2019 (edited) I'm not really a performance car guy, I've always preferred off roading and 4 wheel driving. My last 2 utes (trucks for the US guys) were a Nissan D22 and then a ML Triton (Strada in the Philippines). Both utes had 2 inch lifts, side skid bars, front bull bars, rear protection bars, snorkels, winches and 2 way radios. The Triton also had front and rear locking differentials, roof rack with carry spots for sand recovery tracks, high lift jack and was fitted with a 50 litre water tank, long range diesel tank and slide out rear drawers and a 12 volt fridge.

In Australia, you can actually use all that offroad equipment quite often. In the U.S., most just install it for show. Same here in the Philippines, to a certain extent. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of my best memories are trips I did when off roading (well... and the motorbike trips). It's better to make some memories like that when you're younger, if you leave it too late then it can all get a bit too hard I reckon. I still enjoy driving a good black diamond track although these days a double black is probably beyond me without having someone younger in the car with me.
