I thought Soy was wicked, but it didn't have the lot in my eyes, the look for instance wasn't my taste, although I could appreciate it! It was a top car!

Nothing against Soys car, it was awesome but for me it has to be a powerfull 1600cc engine. TRUE RST.

Dont like the looks of Soys car sorry, for me at the mo has to be Tony Turbos car (this will give him such a big head ), looks superb and when fully mapped up will go very well indeed
Dash looks excellent, pukker gauges, and very nice paintwork (well done Damo ).

BUT...................Missis rst should be on the road in the near future and my opinion might change

Sheer work, performance and everything it has to be Christian and Beccy.

I was there when he first got it and the transformation is something else.

Big up all the hard work that he and everyone has put into it

My green Fiesta is now officially off the road and parked up in the garage. It will never see the road again however my new car is being prepared with new spec everything including a much more powerful engine and transmission / drivetrain, wheels etc etc etc and ofcourse a mint body unlike my previous car (which I didn't get time to complete for the bodyshop).

Thanks - Sunny.

Soy's was a good car, defo not the ultimate by any means
James never kept it long enough in it's end form to REALLY make an impression IMO

Christian and Beccy's is a nice car, seen it from boggo standard to where it is now, achievement is astonishing, but not the BEST I have seen as an all rounder

I like various things from different cars, I like something that REALLY stands out and someone that goes the opposite to the norm - James Bentley did this as did Christian and Beccy

Phil Eddowes cabrio (now breaking it RIP) is one hell of a car and I myself have been inspired by some of the things he has done to do something different with my own (subtle)

RW's + Dave Edwards grey shed was the milestone IMO and that was only 2 years ago!!!! Look how far we have progressed from that!!

I could never pinpoint any particular RST arround, but some DO make the mark

Dave Mulherans old RED RST did it for me, but he has top ideas

I think your sadly mistaken. LOL It done a 13.3 @ 116mph on it's first run with just over a bar of boost.

IMO It's in a totally diffirent league to what your comparing it with. If he had kept it and changed the gearing on fullboost it would of done 170mph.

Thanks - Sunny.
