You can guess the outcome of the video...
Nowt wrong with Scoobs mind, just I prefer my Evo on pretty much all counts.

...u had both like...????
No. I have 2 friends who have. W plate classic and a 51 or so one after the Bug eye. Loved driving them, but found seats uncomfortable in them and basically just not as exciting / fun to drive as my current car.
What I'm referring to is a track session where 15 modified Scoobs are on track, and I overtake all of them
Basically telling me that they were either all novices (unlikely, but possible), they were all running low power (also unlikely given other mods such as the APs and R888s etc a few of them had.) or I'm a driving God

Also very unlikely. What it told me was that my Evo was ace for a very very mild spec and that on that single occasion, the Scoobs weren't so much.
I'll figure out how to do the video thing tomorrow and post it up (read get my bro to do it and host it up!!)
The Scoob vs Evo vs Cos debate could go on for ages. For the currently £15k I have now spent on my Evo I could have got an ACE Saff, a good Escort Cos. An M3 (had one) or an awesome Scoob.
I got the Evo and love it and won't be going back to any of the above mentioned cars.
