The Cal-look Lounge

Come on Guys lets plan on having some real head to head with the sreet legal cal lookers and find which club is the quickest ?

lets have 5 submissions from each club with car type, year and engine spec, and ill arrange the rest !

Nice,I like it. 8)

Will be fun,i like very much only wont be ready for EBI2 ;D

Hi Russel,

as I already posted in the Volksworld thread that would be lots of fun! ;D
Do you think about a show´n´go competition like the DRKC series or just a fun race?
I (or better: we!) would be interested in both! 8)
Bye,

Tobi

The OFF have some street cars as well Russ  ;) :)

that would be cool  :o

but how do you set up the racesso that you wouldn't end up against a 2276cc in your 1776cc?
i might be up for it if all goes well.

I'm up for a bit of that  ;D

....better sort out a second box and some slicks then I guess.  ;D

Why would you need a 2nd box what wrong with the one in the car.

over 200 brake and a zf lsd with close to stock 1-3 gears in a Berg 5 wont go well with slicks me thinks.

Hi H, if you are selling the tranny let me know.  ;)

What you up to then H,going for a Hero box for the new year :o

Russell been thinking about this and yes a good idea but as always you are going to have to put down some rules. Street tyres or are slicks OK and mufflers or stingers just two to think of may be the guys that want to do can come up with some more. :)

Street legal treads would be better than slicks.

But that might be because I can't afford a new box at the mo  :D

Race as it you drove it there.

If you trailer it then you have to race is as such.  ;D

how did the OFF run things with the jap cars? Simple heads up stuff? That seemed to work without a load of rules and regs. Why not a simple first to the line and we pair them up?

So H would you go heads up with a car that has slicks on then.

I have and I would. I even beat Bernie once. :D

Cool come on then guys start putting your names down who wants to race.

As for Bernie that not hard we have to sorry Bernie.

At least I race and beat men in Porsche ;D

 ;D ;D ;D ;D

;D ;D ;D ;)

The 5 rules should be:

1) Must be cal look street car
2) Must run on street legal tyres
3) Will be heads up for under and over 1999cc
4) Must have muffler
5) Must Drive to the show

Joe, OFF is a race club not a cal look club, as you know i would love you guys to take part but it was only an idea for the CAl Look Street Cars, all to be done in the style of gold old heads up racing.

Anyway you guys will be there entertaining us anyway.

Back to the Cal Look Clubs, give me some names so i can speak with the EBI Powers (Kobus, Freddie  and Mike) and try and arrange for this at a certain time over the weekend.

Put me down, and H by the sounds of it  ;D

I can speak to the other guys as well

1)Changed my mind,cant be arsed with all that nonsense

cheers richie,uk

these look like they fall into these categories

Yep. I will extend my RACe cover to include european.  ;D

And just so there is no confusion, I beat Bernie when I ran a 9.87

_{at Nas, over the 1/8 mile and he stalled}


OFF still have the fastest "cal look road cars! that I know of  :D

I really don't mind racing against the OFF, as long as the car's set up is strret legal, why not?  8)

WAIT.... Please

I am not having a go or a dig and am not trying to exclude anyone from having fun as this was only meant to be a little inter club fun !

Firstly

Guys my suggestion was that the Cal look Clubs should have a heads up race, I know that OFF have some superb cars but i thought (please correct me if im wrong) they were a drag racing club, If a member was both part of the OFF and a Cal look club it would be no problem, what i was suggesting was only for fun as we always see some of these cal look guys turn up and park up, i wanted to see them turn up and take part ! i.e RACE. and we all know that the OFF Take part BIG Time.

Secondly

It has been suggested that my proposal fro rules were too strict and upon reading this i agree: maybe we should set these as the minimum rules
1.) Must be a registered cal look car belonging to a european cal look club like DAS, DFL, DBS, JG54, etc.
2.) Must run with muffler and fan belt on
3.) Can run tires of choice (in germany DOT-legal tires are illegal, but in GB for example those are legal as far as I know so i think it would be fair to just let the driver decide if he wants to run on slicks, street radial or whatever)

Ok OFF guys if any of you want to do this let me know because you are now members of UBER ALLES.
They meet at the DAIRY QUEEN IN GARDEN GROVE CA an now also in the UK.

So can we come and play now Russell.

Also which one of the three are you.  ;);D

OK Martin, if its a cal club your in.

Me Unfortunalty Im only a member of my local club NOS VW Club (North of Scotland) and we have 4 members Me, Kev D Dale Clark and Wray, you met us all at EBI, 100% turnout for our club, we do however have 47 cars between the 4 of us !

Im also a menber of the SSVC, Mexican and Brasilian Register, Vintage VW CLub and Cabrio Owners Clun and the Karmann Ghia owners club, however none of these are cal look clubs......

If i was allowed to pick a club to join it would have to be the one where i know the most members ! Im not sure we are all ready for the VW Gasser Garage Cal Look Club yet, so i am happy to sit back and watch, however if anyone wants a race at EBI2 let me know, i will be bringing Zundfolge the orange 51 cal look beetle.

Come on Russell which one of the three are you. ;D

Do i have to post the photo. :o

I WANT TO RACE TOO ;D...........THAT'S THE GOOD PART.

I LIVE IN BAJA,MEXICO :'(.................THAT'S THE SAD PART

Hi Russel,You said:Must be driven.
How do you check this?

How about just street legal registered and insured? This could include a 20 km drive to get some more of that Chimey beer  ;D
I think they do something similar in the Renn Käfer Cup?

How about Turbo engines? Allowed or not enough Cal Look?

Cheers Dom

that sound great russel
