Skoda garage from Czech Republic

[Tuner#2]

Today I tested the spare tire. Surprisingly with it can go even 130 km/h, only to be stepped on the brake I finally have a functional spare tire.

 

[Bib Overalls]

Always interesting.

New racing brake pads - Ferodo DS2500

Today I was driving on the circuit in Most and drove a personal best.

Video coming soon ...

Great garage. Any more developments in the workshop space or is all of you time now focused on the car?

 

[Tuner#2]

Currently I'm working more on the car, but some changes in the garage and equipment are planned.

 

[Tuner#2]

I uploaded to youtube all 6 runs from Sunday's open day on circuit in Most

Very cool build I was thinking that Leon was a Skoda but just remembered it's a Spanish VW, much like Skoda is these days correct?

 

[Tuner#2]

Leon is the Spanish car manufacturer Seat, who are like Skoda, Audi, Porsche, Lamborghini, Bugatti, etc. into the VW Group.

Today I attended slalom

 

[Bogdan M.]

Very cool! The second time you really drove to the car's limit.

 

[Tuner#2]

Saturday's results. The weakest car on the grid is for me an unexpected result.

Yesterday I was driving on the circuit Most with a driving instructor Jan Cervenka - journalist and racing driver.

[Bib Overalls]

Impressive driving. Watched racing video #5 and when the white car sped by you in the straight I said to myself "The race is on." Took you a few laps for you to get by him but I was really impressed at how you out drove him in the corners.

 

[Tuner#2]

Bogdan_M: Thank you, second run could have been better not to be the driving mistakes.

Bib Overalls: The new car I miss atmospheric 1.3 liters engine power on the straights, but in bends and brakes, this car is fantastic.

On Friday I was in the company and did not pick Protlum ordered silencer made to order. In the winter I have a lot of fun during assembly.

 

[BiTurbo228]

Just found this thread. Great garage and stunning car! I love those old rear engine Skodas.

Is yours one of the all-alloy cars or the earlier alloy block/cast iron head?

 

[Tuner#2]

Thank you for the compliment. Block and cylinder head is aluminum alloy.

 

[Tuner#2]

On Saturday I attended a meeting of Skoda cars. I won 2nd place in the sprint at the 1/4 mile and 3rd place in slalom.

 

[Tuner#2]

Today's work. I finished the plate tool that the wall was not an empty space.

 

[HiWind]

wow ... love all the new wheels and the (air cooling for exhaust?) slots above the back bumper ... that is a surgery, not a garage - wish I'd could get mine so clean just for 1 day lol

 

[HiWind]

ps - what is that color called you used for the vise, grinder and drill press?

 

[Tuner#2]

HiWind: Thank you for your praise. Cutouts in the rear face is the exact copy of a hole should 130LR/B: http://img.skoda-virt.cz/forum_upload/2007/01/29/7_1_46834__2007-01-29_23-36-52_87.jpg

and it is preferable to cool the entire engine compartment.

Color in a vice is a two component epoxy primer base and a top coat is a hammered effect + hardener for greater durability: http://www.sincolor.cz/Naterove-hmo.../Vrchni-tepany-email-S-2324-zelena-0-8kg.html

 

[BiTurbo228]

Huh, are 130s air-cooled? That's a lot of cooling vents!

If so they're even more like mini-Porsches

 

[sean Buick 76]

Nice work it looks great!

 

[Tuner#2]

BiTurbo:228: Skoda 130 is air cooled, it has a classic water cooling radiator in the front, but a Czech Porsche it is, ultimately, Ferdinand Porsche was born and lived in the Czech Republic ;-)

sean Buick 76: Thank you.

 

[eikimart]

I love the paint on the machines and the vise there, excellent work.

 

[Tuner#2]

Thank you.

 

[Tuner#2]

Today I was on the 1/4 mile sprint. At 90HP not bad

 

[Tuner#2]

Today I hosted friends for a small private meeting in Pilsen. Prima day.
