Two GTUs...Touge Run...Too Much Fun. (Many Pics)

Yo,


Rotary Racer (Dana) and I went on a little touge run today. Here are some pics:













There are lots more...but these are some of the best. Hope you like 'em!

Hey nice pics!
I noticed you got a cage in yours. What cage is that? And any pictures of the cage itself?

Thanks

Well, unless it's just some clever photography, you can see a little rear drift going on with both cars.

Yo,


Well, we we're going to do some dorifto shots when an unwelcome visitor came by:




Oops! This was the second time he had seen us...the first time he let us alone...this time he gave Dana the Evil Eye and the dreaded finger shake.

So, we decided that now would be a good time to go.

*grin*

The cage is in my car . It is a Auto-Power 4 point roll cage I bought at ioportracing.com. I can post pics later when I go back home (I am in Sacto with Kevin/RarestRX right now)

He stayed up and wrote the post I went to bed <-lazy

But no the other day was great I did not know there were roads like that near Sacto. I wanted to get my drift on but our little friend showed up . But we got some good shots with the dig cam, got some good runs in, had a good time, no one broke down, and no one got hurt.

Very nice indeed my man, very nice. I wish i had some scenery like that around here in GA, along with a clean *** GTUs. You guys wouldn't happen to know where i can get my hands on some GTUs wheels would you? Thanks

PM me your phone number again. I have Monday and Tuesday off again...if the weather is nice...I'll drive that road all day long. *grin*

If you have a video camera...we can try to get some footage. We just need to keep our eyes open for the Man.

Thumbs up gtus

nice!

i was wondering how you can tell the difference physically between a gtus and a gtu with the 16 in. turbo rims. I know about the LSD and the lighter hood but is there any way of telling the difference besides the gtus sticker. I want to look for a gtus and not get ripped off. thanks

GTUs have no sun roofs, and only come black, red and white.
