Hmm.. well Filk, Zman and me, + others that i dont know if they are members here.. Got togheter.. and maybe you can say that it was a litle meet of our own.. (we say that so we can tease you guys that plans to get togheter this summer). It was really fun to meet people from the board.

Maybe Zman or/and Filk will tell you more + post pictures when they get back home.

Its sad that we all live so far away from eachother.. But internet gather us all!. Thanks for the good club-s12.org board.

I must say that our cars really are special. I have never been in Stockholm and thanx to a Silvia I have and I made new friends icon_smile.gif friends from far away.
I would have never meeten theese people if it wasn't for this forum and my love to Silvias.
Right now Filk is on the ferry and has about 6h left to Finland......
Hmmm maybe I should explain what it's all about?
Filk has some problems with his car and Jocke needs a new engine.
I found an extra engine for Jocke and a part car for Filk. The only problem is that I live 600km from Stockholm, where Jocke lives and Filk can take the ferry to.
So I drove up there. With a Silvia and a spare engine in the trunk icon_cool.gif
The tripp was so totaly wort it

Yeah, I have to say the trip was AWESOME!
And for what Zman did for me (took a lot of money, bought a car he didn't need, drove 600km's to a place he didn't know at all to give the car to someone he hadn't ever met before, only knew from the internet. All he had was my word that I'd really show up. It was really amazing, and something that I appreciate very highly. Although, I can't recommend anyone of you just do it like that...the world really is full of maniacs...and Zman and I had talked in the Internet for quite some time and gathered all the information we needed about each other and about the trip. It still was very risky for both of us, I would have spent $$$ for the ferry trip etc for nothing if he hadn't showed up, and same thing for him.

I just got home (I stopped by at the local track, there was a trackday)
I took lost of pics and will put some on the net when I have time.

Anyway, a GREAT trip and now I'm the owner of THREE!!! (3) RS12's!! icon_biggrin.gif
(2 of them working and one of them doesn't have engine and gearbox.)
Thanks Zman!! Thanks Jocke! I really enjoyed it.
