Nurburgring At Easter

Hey Dudes

Went on my annual Nurburgring trip at Easter.

Since my last visit I have upgraded the suspension( Bilstein B8 dampers, Eibach springs, Progress rear ARB, Strutbrace), Brakes( new discs all round, Ferodo DS2500 pads and DOT5.1 fluid) and of course my airbox mod( sounds absolutely fabulous).

The mods has been a great improvement, the handling of the T-Sport was absolutely beautiful, very safe and stable, flat cornering, and with brakes you could really trust.

The bottleneck was the tires. I am still on the standard 195/55-16 Bridgestones.

I did 16 laps and overall it was really impressive and I am sure the little stealth corolla surprised more than one BMW. Once in lift it held on to almost anything but the fastest Porsches.

I am surprised about how few people that knows about the T-sport, but for me that only adds to the appeal.

So now I just cant wait to get back to the ring, which will probably not be before next year.

For my next trip I am planning to run on Toyo-R888 track tyres and perhaps add a bucket seat and a race harness.

Well lets see, my point was: Went to the ring, car handled beautifully.

Highly recommended!!

Cheers
