first roll out of the new car :)

Sport Auto Drift Challenge is THE biggest german drift event every year. Luckily i just got my car ready in time to compete there.



the car was running awesome, felt a lot better than the old one, even though i was running less grippy tires in the front and more tire pressure in the rear than usual. The only technical Problem i had was a boost pipe coming off - nothing big for an entirely new build car :)




I managed to place myself in 10th position out of 75 drivers, wich was more than statisfying to me after a 11-month-break.



The TOP16 were held on another part of the track and i missed the practice due to the blown boost hose. I had to run agains Tim Tatje a pretty good driver from the Netherlands. It was a tight battle, nobody did a mistake, but he got the win for being more aggressive than me. He was!





a big thanks to Seifert-Performance for all the help and support - its so much fun, when you build a car and it just works!

here are some random laps in different cam positions:


see you soon!

the new colour is on

and its hard not to post pics because it looks HOT! :)

I´m pretty happy with the new design and can focus on the last steps in progress: suspension setup und road legalisation.

see you soon.

I hope i still know how to drift, hockenheim - the first proper roll out of the new car will be 11 month since i crashed my old car :-O

www.MartinReinsch.com is back :)

my old URL is back and im trying update this place here more often from now on ;)

tomorrow im going to choose a new colour as my old decition is already on too many cars over here :)

cant wait to see it when its ready.

final touches with the bodywork

in the last few weeks i did a lot of bodywork - its more work than i expected to be honest. But slowly it´s coming to an end.

the rocket bunny wing fits perfect. I was not shure about it, but now im loving it :)

a ne C/F hood and some new windows should be here within the next 2 weeks, and then im getting the car ready for its new colour in may. Its not gonna be the colour i have choosen first, because there are already too many cars in this colour around so im gonna go for something different.

project frankfurt ;)

it became quiet about the build of my new drift car since i came back from the states. The reason is simple, i moved to Frankfurt to start a new job.

The decition was done pretty spontanious and took a while to get it all sorted. Most of the work is done already and now i can start working on the new drift car again - but only on the weekends ;)



Frankfurt is awesome, too bad i can´t take all my cars with me right now.

i miss ´murrica

i hope you guys also had a good start in 2011!
Currently im pretty busy moving to frankfurt into a new flat right in the middle of the city *stoked*

My drift car is still sitting and waiting for light weight parts wich i have ordered 4 month ago :/

meanwhile i cant stop watching Alex´ supercool video of last years Driftoberfest @ Nashville super speedway. miss you guys ;)
