tired of driving around with hitec company cars...
together with 2 friends, we bought this old low tec Opel Kadett GSI
Its nearly completly empty inside except for seat and rollcage. Right now there´s only one seat but we already ordered 2 racing seats.
We will drive it mainly at the Nürburging Nordschleife. (famous racetrack in Germany). Should be a lot of fun!

and yes I know - the paint job sucks!<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

not very authentic, but this thing is fast.
A Brit built it <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle> perhaps he learned something from .44

Strut brace, sway bar, racing seats...nice. :)

I saved almost 100lbs by switching from the posh leather 928 seats to lightweight racing buckets...that's about the same as adding 10hp. :)

Anyway, good luck with your lil' beast!
