    Glowing Turbo anyone?



    Coming back from Nottingham on Sunday night the convoy ended up as Me and my mate in his MR2 Turbo and My other mates Mike and Dan in a fiesta RS turbo.

    We had not been going slow on the way back and the above you can just about make out as the manifold and turbo.

    The whole manifold was red and the turbo was more or less transparent.

    Nottingham was good fun on sunday night. Lots of nice motors willing to "have a play"

    I spotted you floating about AJ, i was in a black MR2 with Veilside kit. Although we just parked up and watched.

    First time I had been to nottingham on a sunday. We were on the striaght with Skylines, Scobbies and a rather impressive Mini with Metro Turbo engine doing some naughties.
    Not a bad drive up although a little far to do every week.

    Shame i didnt have an actual digicam otherwise im sure the picture would have been more impressive.
