Any GT86 owners from Belgium? - Page 30 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Could be fun, whenever I see another driver I already want to raise my hand and greet them like I'm a member of some sort of secret club... I'm 33

Well, i don't mind the language, i'm raised in both :p
I'm from Vlaams-Brabant though (well technically from Oost-Vlaanderen, but that's another story)

I am going to throw it in here, i have 00,00 track day experience, all i can do is some little messed up wannabe burnouts & donuts hahaha!
So a standing still meeting would be the safest for me (and the car) lol!

I've seen 4 86's here in the neighborhood, 1 driven by a younger guy (not younger then me, but still pretty young i guess), 1 by an older couple, a black one i see passing once in a while & one gray one (who was the nicest; i was driving in front of him, put both my side blinkers on & he did the same

) But don't know anyone in person... :p
I'm most curious for you guys' cars actually (and plans)

Me? That could be, but where did you spot me then? i'm from Meise and often go from here to Jette (universitair ziekenhuis VUB)

Have a pic of your Beemer?

Hey guys!

I've been messing around with the VSC & TRC buttons a bit lately, trying to get to know the car better & better

And i gotta say, this car is pretty dang fun

I'm far from knowing how to perfectly handle the car, but you've got to start somewhere right! I'm also getting more & more interested in taking a lesson @ skylimit events, they organize drift days (drift school) once in a while at circuit Zolder

Anyone got experience with them?

Other then that, about the "maybe-meeting" some of us would like to have, i selected some days that seem most likely to be free for most people (friday, saturday or sunday's)

Here's a list of the days i selected, any other days are good for me too :p If anyone is interested in coming let it know here.
- sunday 6th of july
- friday 11th of july
- saturday 12th of july
- sunday 13th of july

Andy from Skylimit is a great guy

I went to several of their events (no drift session, though), top notch.

We (one orange, one black and three grey GTs) did a little tour around the Eifel and saw an orange GT with Belgian license plates at the ring twice. Anybody from here?

Cheers from Cologne, Germany

Hey guys!
I don't know if any of you were "victims" of the huge hail storm that went on yesterday?
But just wanted to see if anyones car got dented since many of my friends & family members have a lot of paperwork to do & insurances to call now :s
Our cars here at home seem to be fine, i've inspected them & they look as if they've survived.

Good luck to anyone with dented roofs, trunks, hoods, side panels,...!
(for the record, i've seen hail on FB up to as big as ping-pong balls

)

Hey guys a little question, i just came back from filling my tank and was wondering what fuel you guys use?
95 or 98? I'm asking here cause if i'm not mistaking the Americans have different fuels...

Does it make a big change which i use? I read somewhere that 98 is better for performance & just in general for the engine if it's a high compression ratio one, and ours is high compression ratio right (12.5:1) ?

And if i'm using 95 right now, am i allowed to drive this tank empty & then just fill it with 98 next time?

Thanks guys!
