so true there paul



there is loads of places to have fun just have to find them there are so many speed cameras around you have to know were you can full it and where to keep it at 30 mph
and i always park in two spaces when i am out as the gta is the same size as i space so i would never et the doors open plus i dont care lol

but is worth getting a 2nd car for every day running around and using the chevy for weekends or when you want to play thats what i am doing when the 4th gen is on the car

at the min i use the gta every day but that has scraches on it ect anyway so i dont care about that one

You got a house in Brandon and your going to DD the Camaro? More man than I, Brandon is the HOOD! I lived up the road in Hockwold and I hated every minute of it. Move far from bade and youll get more house for your money...

I've seen a couple of you other Lakenheath/Mildenhall guys' cars around, but never anywhere off base. I've had trouble finding any sort of domestic or muscle car scene around here, so most of the guys I head out with are part of the import community.

You guys just not very active, or am I just out of the loop?

yeah it seems like unless you drift or are into imports, the muscle car scene is very seldom...

Germany is fun to drive but it kinda gets borring I mean the roads are twisty and turny and fun but narrow as well and the autobahn is great. But you never get to race anyone the roads are either two lane (one in each direction) or the autobahn...what are you going to roll race starting at like 120mph. There has been a few times where I go out early in the morning at races from a stop on the autobahn. And trying to find a big parking lot over here late at night is not going to happen. Europe doesn't beleive in nice big parking lots/spaces.

I recently find out there is a Hooters in the UK. Only one that I know of in Europe.

Hey can we organize a UK cruise and lunch at Hooters of Nottingham, UK? I use to arrange these cruises on the East Coast a lot. Its a good time. Meet up somewhere central for most everyone then cruise up there. Eat some wings have a beer then head home. This would be great opportunity for pics and vids with a few American Muscle cars there are over here in the UK.

Anyone interested in some Hooter's wings/food/beer and their great atmosphere? post up or let me know, i'll pull something together... maybe i'll make a thread...

France and the UK are loaded with speed cameras, it's a nightmare. In Spain there aren't so many of them... and there are many stretches of empty road with nothing in sight.

The Dutch have the market cornered in the speed camera section...

I'm sure you can like buying a new car from the states and ship it here. Your orders says you're entitled to have a car (single) shipped overseas or two cars (if you have dependents) however you have to pay for the extra vehicle as I did.
