MR2 NATIONALS
Over the pond in Dallas, Texas we looked on enviously, as their ‘triple threat’ event got underway, 3 days of pure MR2 indulgence, dyno day, drag strip event, and track day, it looked awesome, full coverage in this issue.
BEAR MOUNTAIN
We last featured Bear Mountain 2009, (old issue 19), it’s great to see the North East MR2 community enjoying this event that has become a tradition with such great attendance. The event was started over two decades ago by Joe Pearlstein who sadly passed away.
JAP SHOW FINALE, SANTA POD:
Our first visit to Santa Pod in 10 years, for our fix of adrenaline fuelled quarter mile fun.
welcome… So, onto our featured MR2s…
TRD2000GT
No.8 is no stranger to many UK MR2 owners, having been owned by a couple of long term and well known MR2 enthusiasts. New owner David Biagoni has sympathetically
restored this authentic No8 widebody to its former glory.
SONIC SHADOW REBOOT –
Kevin Underdown had unfinished business with the SW20, marking a milestone birthday with the purchase of a sonic shadow, mid-life crisis maybe? his story of nuts, bolts and welds captures the sentiment of an epic DIY restoration, and his journey
through the 2021 UK show season, clearly loving every minute of it.
2ZZ SPRINT SERIES ROADSTER
Aaron Laverty fulfils a childhood dream building a track focussed ZZW30 and competing in the Javelin Toyota Sprint Series.
PURE BLITZ
Gerard’s super clean 93 turbo is for sure a head turner – testament that wheels maketh the car. No extreme styling here, just a set of iconic Blitz o3’s, perfect blend of stance and subtle body styling that complement the slick and timeless lines of the sw20.
POWERED BY BEAMS
We’ve always wondered just how driveable the turbo Mk1.5 (3SGTE) swap is, or can the AW11 chassis’s sweet spot actually be found with a 200bhp high revving normal aspirated lump? Leighton Davies confirms this with his
red top BEAMS swap, Toyota’s power-plant that is nothing short of a work of art.
HOOPTIE X DIRT RACER DEUCE –
David Hubbard’s crazy 300bhp 2GR uplifted SW20 is a bit of a handful, but a lot of fun, throwing huge rooster tails as it blasts across the sand dunes.
