    Le Mans Classic

    Anyone else going? A few of us that met on here over 10 years ago going. It'll be a little different from the previous trips we've done, in so much as we're staying in Le Mans city rather than in the countryside. I'll post some pics on here as I'm sure they'll be some stunning cars both on...

    Want to join me for a road trip following Le Mans?

    As some of you may recall, last year I left Le Mans straight after the race and headed south to play around on the Pyrenees and soak up some sun on the North East coast of Spain. There are amazing mountain roads with little or no traffic, awesome scenery, nice weather, great food and nice...

    Do I need this in my life?

    Will it appreciate? Or, Will it financially ruin me? I'm tempted, someone talk me out of it. http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/motorsport/track-day-cars/road-legal/1984-ferrari-308-gtsi-qv/4417651?v=c

    Any interest in Brands Hatch trackday?

    Evening all, Just seen the Llandow thread and whilst it a nice little track and good vfm is there any interest in doing Brands sometime? With MSV it costs somewhere in the region of £100 I believe, with group bookings you can get pit garages chucked in foc too. Sadly I don't have the...

    My last Lambo video (for a while anyway)

    A sad day... handing over the keys to Dicky and watching him drive it away. Lots of fond memories, not just for me but also for the people that I took out in it for joy rides and for the family as it was used on various shcool runs and even a camping trip! So here's one of the younger...

    Toad Tv - Balboni review

    Here's the video from Toad Tv that I took part in on Sunday morning. Fortunately the majority of the claptrap that I was coming out with during the interview didn't make the final cut, so there's a lot more car, which is a blessing for us all ;)...

    Wet day pic thread

    Seeing as I got rather carried away with the camera yesterdayI thought I'd open up a special pic thread. Anyone else with any (especially from the morning session!) please add them.

    Couple of Lambo vids for you

    First one is a quickie taken by someone in the crowd at the Beaulieu Supercar Showdown during the acceleration demo. This is 0-70ish and then ******* the brakes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-ReAuPwhYI And this is one I made myself. It's a bit arty to start with and believe it or not, it's...

    Pingu

    Just watching Pingu with Amélie and have noticed he was clearly the inspiration for the Balboni colour scheme.... Black body, white stripe with gold edging. That's all, carry on.

    Gearbox whine on the Balboni

    As some of you are aware, there has been a whine developing somewhere in the gearbox over the last 3,000 miles. It started before the Le Mans & South of France trip and the advice I was given by Lamborghini was to drive it to destruction to actually give them something to mend. So I...

    LONG Lambo review and pics

    As you are all now probably aware, I took delivery of my new car last Thursday, a stunning Lamborghini Gallardo. However, this one is different from most in that it is the limited edition “Valentino Balboni†LP550-2. For the initiated here's a copy and paste from Wikipedia: This is...
