Dude, I haven't seen those first two photos since I joined up! Man, the 'Ring musta been a FUN drive.......

Did your suspension make it through okay?

<== Jealous that you got to take that carousel midway through the 'Ring.

Yeah, suspension was fine, handled like a dream. I can't wait to take her out there this year. I'm just waiting on an o2 sensor and she should be ready.

Cool! Thanks for posting some pics. Nice seeing an NA (North American, not naturally aspirated...although of course it is ;-)car in amongst all the Euro models.

She'd have passed the Skyline GT-R.

Just like she passed those dudes on motorcycles in a Ford Transit van in Top Gear. LOL.

***NighHawk8Gen*** · 07-17-2007, 12:19 AM

It works great to learn the orientation of the track. And a million times better than the controller. I cant even drive with the controller lol.

Skylinegtr06 · 07-17-2007, 12:19 AM

hey are germans asking about your car? You might have the only FG2 in Germany

Yeah, she's no joke. Everytime I'm there she is just zippin around that track with carfuls of people in the ring-taxi, driftin every damn curve. You guys should see the looks on peoples faces when they zoom by. Halarious.

I was the only one for a while. And yeah, they always ask. I would say that there are maybe 20 of us here now. I haven't seen an FA5 yet tho. At least I'm boosted so it's still kinda unique, for now...

megahurts · 07-17-2007, 12:23 AM

o_O awesome pics... but how'd you get that car over there?

Oh yeah, it's a playseat. The new ones are out for the G25 wheel. They have a place for the seperate shifter. Too bad Ps3 doen't have any good games or I would get it.
