DDD4 pictures

Lend somewhere from the site of our 'neighbours' www.german-spirit.com:

http://olivier.lecorre.club.fr/galer.../bitburg06.htm

Most all of them are very good pictures and they had 'german' written all over them, which is outstanding, given its mostly a callook/old-style look meeting.

This is my favorit for many reasons:


Its a Gelb-schwarzem Renner (special limited 1303 edition only in Germany) with a 2,6 ltr type 4 with Riechert horizontal cooling, that was build 25 years ago, has never been apart and still delivers very fast 1/4 mile times. Don't know the exact times tho.. but when you can make a wheelie with a full weight street legal 1303, you have my respect

Oh, I participated also, but not quite that spectacular, but had great fun nonetheless:



Greetings,
Walter

Very nice, Walter. The GSR and its American cousin, the Sports Bug, is a favorite at SBO!. They will enjoy the link.

Oh, and I like the other pic, too.

That red/burgundy bug is insane. I think those are Moton shocks all around, an option that probably costs about as much as a stock bug!

You are more right than you think. The whole car is detailed to perfection. I cannot descibe it any other way. It has a very fast 2,9 ltr type 4 out back...

@ Jonas: It was my first ever official 1/4 mile and I managed 16,0 sheer weight, the very mild Web 86, the 11,4 A/F ratio at full throttle and street tires were not helping, but the fun was nonetheless

I did drove 36,8 MPG on the way back home hehe. (with a thursty 12,4 AFR)

i think the most odd thing is the blue second gen camaro. all i could hear in my head was that song from sesame street "one of these things are not like the other, some of these things are kinda the same"
