Back to basics !
Last week i had to visit a client in the part of our country where they don't like to work. Actually it's a very nice region with a lot of nature and therefore some nice roads.
The day after was a totally different drive, the car has loads more torque and power but the speeds were very un-BIM-like.
The food had a bit more cachet though
For those occasions i always bring a full size spare wheel along ... you never know what could happen.
No need to lose time and money on restaurant food, just take along some cheese sandwiches and a home brewed coffee. Since the weather was amazing it was quite relaxing sitting by the side of the road (with no traffic at all).
Before the serious fun starts some sightseeing from the car.
And here is where the fun started, i guess out of the 500 km i drove there were some 30 km at this pace.

Yes standard exhaust, but ...
... the air intake is a Ktec Racing cold air intake. I guess a few more Nm and Hp at midrange but not really noticeable.
The sound on the other hand is hilarious
I had a Quaiffe limited slip mechanical differential put in the gearbox which makes this a completely different ( even more bonkers) car .... grip grip grip , very enjoyable.

Great to see that THE Bimb is back! Nice coup de volant, mon ami. [nt]
No message body
I guess you could call this ...
... one of the best 2019 moments already.
A little different when you compare it to driving in Paris ... LOL .... .

The driving in the city of Paris ...
... was fun for me , on the other hand miss Bimbeano almost got a heart-attack several times.
Yes and both equipped with Conti’s ;-)
I ditched the front Bridgestones on the Megane 😄
The SC6 is excellent, if you can fit it...
I guess they still start at 19 inch, so might be difficult with the Clio 🤷🏻♂️
SC5 on the Clio and 245/35/19 SC on the Megane.
Though at the rear of the Megane i still have the original Bridgestones.
Prejudiced much?
"...a part of our country where they don't like to work." Talk about an overgeneralization, which should have no place either here or anywhere, really.
As an American Indian, I'm probably more attune to this than most, especially those in majority society. And let me tell you first hand, such overgeneralizations can be very harmful, not only to individuals but to entire communities (or in your case, an entire "...part of our country.").
Tell me where you live! I'm sure I could identify many in your area that don't like to work.
Just read your comment.
Actually my client who lives in that region himself calls it ... 'the part of Belgium where (most) people don't like to work' ... i invite you to come over and have a look into our social system of dividing money to the 'poor' people ;-) , especially in 'THAT' part of our country.
To make a waaaaay tooooooooo loooooong story short, anyone here working and earning 100 Euro has to give at least 56% to the government ... of the remaining 44 % they pay 21 % VAT on anything as well as those who have to pay for their own fuel will probably spend over 10% on that as well .... so they're left with just under 30 % .... .
Now imagine my client living in between those 'mongrels' and having to face persecution because he works extremely hard and driving a BMW, being haunted by the taxman etc etc etc .... the stories i heard (not only from him, also other people living there) are just mind-blowing.
That the reason i proudly call it ... THE PART OF THE COUNTRY WHERE THEY ... ARE LAZY , too lazy to pull a finger ....
A decent American Indian like you should far from worry about what's going on here ...

I have also a full spare tire in the back of my car.
I go to Charleroi, so i hope the roads are not like Pakistan.

Yes :-)
From Flanders to see the Walloons as my American friend living in Wallonie describes it
The Flemish fully build the land with houses and factories , there are still some beautiful spots off course and the Walloons were the smartest and kept their region beautiful.
