Expensive hobbies: Nissan Skyline GT-R owners trackday


Some hobbies can be very expensive: for instance owning a Nissan Skyline C10 GT-R can already be very expensive, but driving one hard on a owners trackday may become even more expensive!

I wonder what the total of this line of cars (without the Lambo) would be worth. I counted at least 2 genuine KPGC10s, 1 genuine KPGC110 and at least 6 GC10s. That’s probably worth at least half a million euros. :o

But there were many more cars than that line up:

The trackday was not only limited to GT-R owners alone: as you can see the tekamen DR30s were welcome as well. :)

And if you look closely you can also spot a white AA63 Carina GT-R in the top right corner (next to the Silvia S13)

This shot is my favorite:

Vintage 1976 Nissan Skyline C110 brochure + posters

Just found this vintage 1976 Nissan Skyline GC110 brochure + posters in an auction on Ebay:
Nissan Skyline C110 brochure + posters
Nissan Skyline C110 brochure + posters

It does not only contain the GC110, but also posters of Ken and Meri, older Skylines (from 1957 onwards) and some racing cars(R380, R381 and the 50 victories by the Skyline!)

The Buy-me-now is right (39,95 AUD) but together with the shipping it is a bit steep… So if anyone wishes to give me a birthday present on the 16th, this is a good gift! ;)

You can find the auction here:

And hurry: the auction ends on the 11th of April!

Video: Nissan Skyline VC110 van

I did post some Skyline van videos before and all of them were by Deluxe1969. Now this video shows his own van: his Nissan Skyline VC110 van!

Beautiful, isn’t it?
The car itself is a G-16 powered Skyline deluxe, so double barrel carburettor and 100hp on the tap. I have no idea what the thing on the roof is, but IMO it looks like an ex-ambulance…

You can also see it in action in this video:

Now I want one too! Anyone who wants to buy a kidney? ;)
