well as said here is my little Story off my tracktool, okay it started a Long time bevor i got this Corsa, the yellow one. i owned 2 Corsa b's bevor. this is my first Corsa '97 gsi x16xe bought it when i was 16years old everyone was thinking im an stupid crazy idiot
full stock i got it but no nono thats boring, so i changed some little thinks like rims and Suspension. this coilovers where in every Corsa i had





but after one year still not driving it i get bored again so i worked as an carpainter weeeell time for an colour Change



then i drove it like this an half year or so yes driving by myself, but then shit i got bored again so sold this one, after this Corsa i bought and sold much cars, like astra mk2 gsi, astra mk4, Kadett c, but then i wanted an Corsa b again so i bought my one.. first it was just planned as an wintercar but then i cant stop spending all the cash i had into it

first with my old parts on it, just enjoy driving it, driving it fast





well sad days coming after only 5000km driving it, the engine went so well what todo? yeah right engine rebuild time, but not only enginerebuild.. puting an heigo rollcage and some sparco evos and 6point harness in it



haha look at the enignebay



well that's it for the first, more to come

cheers

but then i want more again putting an c20xe in it was an nice idea but in switzerland not so much done only 5-6 Corsa b with this engine in it so we done it what an nice Feeling have an engine which the most others dont have



went much faster as the x16xe, so time for some trackday Action







then got an nice offer for an superbe engine in switzerland so out with the Standard c20xe and in with the new engine brand new only 100km done!







time for an colour Change dont liked the black



then the first trackday with new engine



well not every race ended good.. kissed some tires



fixed it then Abit off an new look



then something in the front bottom arms broken hard to explain for me



but fixed again so last race bevor the winter Comes



and now ist winter and where all up to date from now i post every update from my Corsa, hope you like
