Gearoid sent me on some of his snaps from the Modball 2010. Looked like a proper good time. The 2010 route saw 74 cars travel from London to the continent and back to London via Le Mans, San Sebastian, Madrid, Barcelona, Monaco and Geneva, partying at every stop. It definietly sounds like alot of fun.
Its shit even in the title when i wrote 2010 it makes it sound so serious, i tried to write 10 but that just looks stupid and 010 doesn’t look so good either. Ah well. This year wt up to Mondello again for another track day. A change from some of the not so exciting parades around the country. Maybe it was just me but there was less cars there compared to last year. I guess this whole recession shit has really had a toll or maybe it was just paddys day and more people wanted to drink this year. I had a camera and also a video camera with me so i started filming the day and made an oul video from it.
Haha, Duggie and his magical trueno and the magical boring new bypass from Dublin to ford and Dayos magical photography skills from the back.
An r32 surounded by Imprezas.
Some clean egs.
A Lurking jzx90 maybe?
This k20 powered Elise was pretty nifty around the track
Dan murdering 200sxs and civics in his stock 1400 corolla haha, Dan works at Mondello and would give you a run for your money in this car. Thanks for bringing us up to the tower again it was cool.
Dave did the trip also in his Hachi. Its looking good as always.
This mini was just fucking epic to be honest, cruising around the track at 30-40 with rx7s flying past and evos. It was so good.
Mountains in the background with snow makes this almost look not like Ireland haha.
This ae92 was looking good. Looked very jap and was loud as fuck. There was a little bit of batteling between the Daves ae86 and this 92 that we got to see from the tower balcony area, it was a good time to watch that. There is small bits in the video below.
Nice looking caged ferio
This rx-7 was flat out all day.
Battle of the civic generations?? haha
We then used this key to get this picture below.
Just having a joke… Check the video now so you can feel like you were there also with this space age technology called youtube.
I think its rare to get an aggressive looking Del Sol There shaped like a bar of soap which isisnt a bad thing its just there not a mean looker. This one is deffo an exception with its all black exterior it just looks serious. Wheels are 949 Racing 6ULs 15×9 +36 with spacers on 225/45 tires. No stretch stretchy stuff going on here. Strictly function happening with this.
Im in love with this picture and if you have forza i recommend you download the shit out of this car its up now for free.
Haha check this intense as fuck video on it also.
I found these on my old pc thought they were gone. These i think were supposed to go in MIJ but never happened and i had stored them away. Here they are well the best ones. I was surprised to see that there was so many decent cars at that meet. Really, people had stepped it up and it seems the scene of buddy club and wings west body kitted smooth mobiles like these warriors with the delicious wolfrace katanas and the colour coded interior with them lovely f.u.k badges is becoming more of a rarity day by day.
This is definitely one angry nsx, it goes to show you can get away with anything in japan and it will look cool, but if that came to Ireland i wouldn’t think it would have such a positive response mainly because heroes do this type of work to vaxhaull astras and corsas and then thats the kind of shit that flashes through your head. But as long as it stays in Japan its intense and i guess it will stay cool.
“The technical wheel” wow that sounds really fancy cant wait for them to come out. Nah really though what a cool little poster. They definitely don’t make shit like they used to or maybe its just me, but this new cr-z just doesent have the look of the ef8 crx. Dont get me wrong it might eventually grow on everyone but cars for sure are definitely becoming more and more shitty and futuristic looking.
Mugen have unveiled there new mugen line for the cr-z which looks good i guess and spoon seem to have the car on their catalogue on there japan site ready for stuff but compared to the crx this looks like a Citroen c4 van at the rear. It just doesn’t have that same raw look that other Hondas have had over the years. I know some day everyone will have to drive little battery cars and stuff but cant they still make them look some way aggressive or less bubbly and less like every other car. I cant imagine someone ripping one of these apart and building it into a race car at the minute. Listening to the roar of a b18 or whatever engine this is going to get around a track in a a stripped out shell. Maybe im full of shit and id say im wrong but at the end of the day its new and the old has already been proven. This car to some people will look amazing and i wasnt around to think about the crx when that came out i bet people said the same thing. I guess id just take the ss works crx over any crz any day haha and we will just have to wait and see how the cr-z goes.
Some nice cars out being cars at 3am. Cant get enough of the k20 powered eg6 with the spoon calipers. Check back for more pics of the eg6 soon and some more.
I don’t really like the new fn2 but spoons version is actually growing on me, its clean and subtle and just looks alot nicer then the standard euro version, if Tatsuru Ichisima has given his two cents at making it decent and has driven the shit out of it i guess it has to be good.
This thing was a flame spitting monster check it doing some laps around Tsukubu in 84. Such a nice sound from this car and the video is pretty good also.
