quality bit of work affixing the metal to the dash

take off the gay stickers and mud flaps, lose the dodgy switches and that has the makings of a decent RST imo!

they say never judge a book by its cover - which if you took the front end as the cover, it'd be some best seller action novel, but when you look inside or around the car, you'd be immensely disappointed to find it'd been published on Ladybird books aimed at 5 year olds

classic boy racer but its a bird owns it lol i saw it in sheffield the other day. i rang tim up straight away as i thought it was him

ive only seen it from outside before but i can now safely say that the inside clearly looks like as much of a cheesed up shitpile as the outside!

big thoughts + no taste + precious little ability = this car!

For all the slagging it's getting, at least is functional. Tacky, but no TVs or DVD players in sight


Mind you, not how I'd do it

when you have all finished, that is my car u r slagging, off. this is the first time i have posted on this forum and will certainly be the last as you all seem to be a bunch of cnuts. i dont care what anyone thinks about my car, evrything has been done for a reason and form and function.
A: porkie, it has a tyre weld because i have no spare wheel.
B: sapphy mike, can u even read ladybird books yet? thought u were still on janet and john stg 1? wtf does it matter how the metal is screwed on? its there to do a job not look pretty.
C: rab, all the gauges have a function as i have an engine worth monitoring
D: matt, my cheesed up shit pile has been featured in at least two magazines??? small dick+ no idea+tosser=you.
E:charlie chalk + stavros it has 2 speedo's basic maths lesson 1. one for rd use and a data log for track.

as said before i really couldnt give a toss what people think, but if the attitudes on this thread are anything to go by, theres no wonder this forum has a bad rep.

I actually really like the look of the car. My issue with it (other than the ARM and FLAME switches) is the fact that for something that looks really nice and purposeful from the outside, it looks a little thrown together on the inside.

I feel that mine is a constructive opinion. Seems a shame to have all that gear, then just throw it at the car. We see it all the time with the drift boys, but that's just normal for them. They think nothing of spending Ł500/600/700 on gauges then nailing them to the dash with cable ties.

So, tell me more. What spec is it?

1 serious question though by the way.

Why the fuck does a datalogger need a speedo gauge?

Or is your datalogger a camcorder?
