They're not considered legends (yet) as not many people know the cars as well as they do James's because it was one of the first that people saw modified to that extent and was doing all the shows & running at the strips, like i posted earlier. It is the car people remember from that era 4 or 5 years back.

Tony, I'm not disagreeing at all that Oli's and Jamie's cars are fabulous and indeed do probably deserve the legend term themselves, (and most likely already known as that to some people). Maybe it's because they are still around out-performing exotic cars, still pushing boundaries that they are not perceived as legends..yet. After all, don't legends only become so after they have gone ??
