Taking on the Owners Club - The SXOC @ Crail.

Posted by Andi Gordon on May 21, 2013 at 10:41pm 0 Comments

I'm not one for car clubs or forums. In my admittedly limited experience, they are a soapbox for those who lack imagination to dog on those who think outside the box. Sure, there are those members with vast knowledge, who are willing to impart there wisdom to anyone who seeks it out. However, for every enlightened soul, there always seems to be another 10 of the message board mafia who post after every picture - "MORE LOWZ". 

The meets (again in my experience only) seem to be even worse.  Dozens of folks show up at pubs with car parks, (which generally means it's a play park / pub / eatery) order a round of soft drinks and talk in a riddle of chassis and engine codes.

There is the occasional club meet I can get on board with though. The Nissan 200SX Owners Club track day at Crail is just such a day. Held 4 times…

Apex festival Lydden hill track track 2013

Posted by James Tremain on May 21, 2013 at 9:10pm 2 Comments

2013 brings the second year of Apex festival down at lydden hill race track, its a full action packed weekend of cool ass aircooled rides to classic, race, retro and performance cars.

Unfortunately I couldn't make it to both days so sunday was the day for me and here is my take on the day..

Its definatly not a weekend to be missed, its only the second year it has been run but it was a big hit this year and I will say its will be bigger next year..

Once arrived it was time to grab the camera and start having a wonder around to look at what the Apex festival guys had install for us..

Sooo I wont bore you will all my chatter and il let you see the cool ass aircooled goodness that was at the day…

Seann Hodsons Cheeky Beetle

Posted by mark turner on May 21, 2013 at 4:39pm 2 Comments

I saw this parked up and had to grab some pics.

Lovely car with some great custom touches like the custom built luxury minibus seats, narrow front beam, unique sun visor and much more.

The owner Seann Hodson usually has a set of wide white banded steels on the rear but not today. He's no stranger to air cooled Vee Dubs and has several others. A pickup, a beach buggy and a couple more beetles.…

News from Precisionline Fuel Injectors, who the ASNU Disributors for Canada, Force-Fed Racing have reconditioned fuel injectors in 2 racing cars right now but would like the ASNU high flow injectors soon. One of the cars raced last Saturday at Mission Raceway near Vancouver and Forcefed have this to say "Last weekend sort of got rained out but we were able to make a couple passes and ended up running an 8.1 in the 1/4 mile which is a new record for us and solidifies the title of Canada's fastest rotary powered car. We hope to head out again this weekend to see if we can break our record again"
