Well, I've just bought an Aus Spec Sprinter on top of the TA22 I'm currently rebuilding. So I guess you could say I'm twice as mad. I didn't buy the Sprinter to drift, however, as I'm still struggling to come to grips with a motor sport that involves finding the slowest way around a circuit The AE86 might see track work, but not until I've completely sorted the TA22 out. The Sprinter has to become my daily driver as I have to sell my bike to pay for it. Frankly, if all I wanted was to go fast then I'd keep the bike. I mean, with a machine that can do ~280kmh and does sub 11sec quarters (bog stock) as well as being able to go round corners very quickly, what more could you possibly want... ...and the answer is to be WARM! Damn its cold at this time of year and I've now lost that youthful naievity that blinkers you against the bleedingly obvious. A bike is a great thing, I love 'em and always will, but a nicely sorted car works better for getting the kids around as well as staying dry and warm. The Sprinter will never, ever be as quick as the bike (for the same money), then again not many cars can claim to be. It is however, 1) A Toyota 2) Rear-Wheel drive 3) Light and nimble 4) WARM and dry 5) Hopefully reliable. 6) and it was also (relatively) cheap. I mean, I'd love a JZA80 Supra too, but I'm not that well off. Having said that, I'm sure I paid too much money for it.... Just my take on things Cheers, Dan [Report message to a moderator]
