Adam Posted November 11, 2013 Posted November 11, 2013 It's normally really quiet at the 'Ring at this time of year, but this weekend the weather on Saturday was very good and it was quite busy. There was snow on Sunday, but by then we were heading home! My car wasn't the only Legacy 2.0 GL there! 2
Gambit Posted November 11, 2013 Posted November 11, 2013 Some great high quality pictures mate. Did you park up next to the Bmw's and Merc on purpose ;) Thanks for sharing them was it a good weekend away all in all ?
Adam Posted November 11, 2013 Author Posted November 11, 2013 The photo with the BMWs and the Merc was in the hotel car park and belonged to our fellow guests. Always a good time there. We didn't go with the expectation of doing a lot of driving because it's the wrong time of year. Both the Legacys that went were bought earlier in the year as cheap run-abouts as my GT-B has head gasket issues, and Rob's GT-V had bottom-end fail at Hockenheim. I hadn't been since 2012 so this weekend was my last chance to make sure my record of going every year was unbroken, even if it was only in a GL! It also gave me a chance to take my 16-year old son for his first trip... Methinks he'll be going back whenever he can! 1
Jay762 Posted November 11, 2013 Posted November 11, 2013 Awesome thats what I try and do with my kids
Gambit Posted November 11, 2013 Posted November 11, 2013 Thats the main thing you enjoyed it and got to give your son something he will more likely do in your footsteps. Or should that be tyre treads :D I thought you had done it with them being German car's on purpose ;) And after seeing the other legacy has just reminded me Mario bought one on here and was doing it up wonder how that got on. Guessing it was worse then he thought :(
Tlag Posted November 11, 2013 Posted November 11, 2013 I was gutted not to be able to go on this run. My daughter went with them though, and now she is been bitten by the 'ring' bug. I can see a family trip happening in 2014 :) 1
Gambit Posted November 11, 2013 Posted November 11, 2013 Thats it once been bitten it's like a curse ;)
Daley2450 Posted November 11, 2013 Posted November 11, 2013 Can you help me persuade my family to go! The kids would love it, but my wife won't step foot in my car lol
Adam Posted November 11, 2013 Author Posted November 11, 2013 I was gutted not to be able to go on this run. My daughter went with them though, and now she is been bitten by the 'ring' bug. I can see a family trip happening in 2014 :) She was sat in the back of my car plotting ways to get her own car to the 'ring all the way home, and after talking to your wife today I think she is keen on taking her Z3 over too... Sounds like you're going to have a convoy from Coventry to Germany soon! 1
Gambit Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 Can you help me persuade my family to go! The kids would love it, but my wife won't step foot in my car lol Get her drunk ;) She was sat in the back of my car plotting ways to get her own car to the 'ring all the way home, and after talking to your wife today I think she is keen on taking her Z3 over too... Sounds like you're going to have a convoy from Coventry to Germany soon! Might be planning a trip without him :D But can see your going to need some over time before Christmas Tlag sound like someone might have a car on the Christmas list :D
Tlag Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 The next time I go, I will be driving my project car. The Christmas overtime is going straight into that :) Anybody else in the family wants to take there own car, they can fund the trip themselves. :) 2
Gambit Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 I thought that's what us Dads was for a personal bank and taxi :D
Tlag Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 I thought that's what us Dads was for a personal bank and taxi :D Totally agree, but when it comes to my project car............ ;)
Gambit Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 Ok I have to ask. What is it, and what are you doing. Or is this Project Area 52 top secret :D And just as a side not don't worry if you are busy don't know if either of you can help this Gent with his Fozzie, with some tips http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/3362-modify-an-xt-to-sti-spec/
Adam Posted November 12, 2013 Author Posted November 12, 2013 I was in Tlag's garage yesterday and Bip unboxed a turbo the size of a water melon and said his Dad would be using it in the project car, so I have a rough idea what he's up to! 1
Tlag Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 Hoover? How did you know? :) I will l be sucking up the air from the atmosphere and converting it into lots of noise and lots of forward motion, :) I will be a starting a build thread on the car, probably around Christmas time. 1

Sounds good to me :D Can I get a sneak question in. Is it to be a track car only or both, just to get my slaver glans going :D
Jay762 Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 looking forward to this one - roll on xmas :D
Gambit Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Ok I think that's answered my last question :D
