April track day preparations, help from my clone.

Interior upgrades + the kiddos loving Stormy.

Montage, half track day, half VW porn. That’s a 550hp single turbo Mk4 R32 dressed in sleeper blue.

LCR morning adventures @ Jeff’s Corner. (Lime Creek Rd)

The Pathfinder belongs to our club founder. It has full brake and suspension upgrades + a full 5.6L Titan V8 swap with longtubes, a Magnaflow catback, and a pro tune via Nissan UpRev. (I may have the name wrong, but it cooks and books)

Owner did all the work and planning himself, and leads a lot of our fast car cruises each month.

Many a lowered car with novice driver struggles to keep up with it in the twisties.

You truly never know what you’ll run into on LCR. Some people have lots of money and style.

Yes, you are looking at a McLaren 720S, and an Ariel Atom. Both with the same owner.

Throbbing erections were present all morning and afternoon that famous, glorious day…

The aero on that Ariel is gorgeous

More LCR fun.

The Lapiz Blue Mk7 R doesn’t actually live this way, he was down having brunch with his lovely lady at nearby Oasis restaurant, a few minutes from LCR.

His car looked and sounded like German supermodels moaning while eating thick sausages and chugging cold beer.

I wasn’t exaggerating when I said throbbing erections. We were all enamored by the Ariel and it’s supercharged K24 Honda power plant, screaming around LCR like Lily Love during a naughty video scene…

#shenanigans!

Shots of the front LCA upgrade back in early January + the 40k DSG service.

Car has come a long way in just 5 months!!!

Port Aransas trip with the kiddos, August 2022.

Stormy caught a nasty flat tire early on in the trip, had to roll around on the donut until the very last day.

Somewhere there are shots of Storm with cardboard and a full size wheel and tire strapped to her roof, using nearby nautical rope, because there wasn’t room for all of the stuff in the car, the kiddos, and the wheel and tire.

We drove that way for 35 minutes to the nearest DT in Corpus Christi over on the mainland.

Most “Big Altima Energy” Houston red neck s**t I’ve done in a while.

Proud of the achievement!
