Default Another car v bike thread quite funny

I bought a nova turbo the other week meant to be 300 bhp it wasnt charging & the boost was all over the place! so i fitted a alternator , found a boost pipe off the actuator , refitted that & set the fuel pressure also.

Took it out tonight for a little run it was boosting fine to 17 psi charging perfect 3 bikes overtook me on the motorway didnt even pay attension to them the 3rd one a ninja couldnt miss it over took me & stuck the fingers up i thought whats that all about laughed im in a nova thats prob why my sisters man was with me he said go for him i didnt.

So i got to the next round about his 2 mates in front of me & he had slowed to wait on them he was a bit heavy we came off the round about its quite big so when i got on the straight i was in 3rd so i went for it he tucked under the visor & dropped a gear i only fucking passed him pulled a gap in 4th & in 5th he got on my quarter panel i could see him over my shoulder but he couldnt get bye me into 6th & he fell back a bit then slowed down!

Right in front of his mates as well thats what he gets for being a smart arse i wasnt bothering my shirt with him at first.

im not naieve for one bit to think my car is quicker than all bikes but this guy just didnt have the minnerals or his bike didnt.

I like the little car thats the first real shot ive had of it & was pleasantly surprised
he defo wasnt expecting that at all to be totally honest neither was i it spins that much in the first 3 gears i under estimated it in the next 3 gears. I will buy a decent set of front tyres for it see it that helps.

No way a Nova is going to beat a modern sportsbike, look up the power to weight figures. He was plainly not trying.......

Surprised no wanker has come out with the above statement yet.

One of the guys I went out riding with in Scotland used to have an R6 and I had an argument with him one day because I said Kev Sharp's Cossie would beat me on my R1. He was adament that even his R6 would beat any car other than Formula One cars.

Well one night he was out on his R6 and a guy in a tuned up Audi TT(of all things) with supposedly around 400bhp sat level with him right up to around 150mph where they had to lift off. I'll give him his due, he eat is words well.

I would love a go in that wee Nova Carlo, stick it in a container and send it to New Zealand for me will you?

Barry if we had went in 2nd gear he would defo have pulled & i wouldnt have got so close to him but i got him on the hop & he thought he would hold me off & didnt

Was a laugh but one thing is for sure the nova is a gauranteed ban for sure its too easy to get caught up in things like that in it

Trashed a few bikes with my old nova turbo, best 2 duel's for me was a Noble on way to silverstone and a carrera turbo reeled both them in, oh and the 2 skylines on the pit straight at silverstone.

Barry thats the first i have been out in it running properly , comparing it with my other cars i would say its the quickest thing ive had apart from my saph with the t4 8 greens with euans old engine! Its a good bit quicker than all my other cossies / evo / E46 m3 its doing about 13mph more than my 440 bhp 3 door at a certain point on the bye pass from the round about to the top of the hill where i had a go with that bike!

lol McChav gsi
you could be right my divorce was because my wife was giving other people blow jobs the Mc slut
que a string of divorce jokes
Sir, if you were my husband, I would poison your drink. --Madam, if you were my wife, I would drink it. - A conversation between Lady Astor and Winston Churchill

My wife ran off with my best friend and I really miss him

When a man steals your wife, there is no better revenge than to let him keep her.


She was a great housekeeper, too. When we divorced, she kept the house.

It's not true that married men live longer than single men.... It only seems longer.

Scientist have discovered a food to diminish a woman's sex drive by 90%. It's called Wedding Cake.
Instead of getting married again, I'm going to find a woman I don't like and give her a house.


Why is divorce so expensive? Because it's worth it.
Marriage is great, but I wouldn't recommend it to single people

A woman was telling her friend, "It is I who made my husband a millionaire." "And what was he before you married him?" asked the friend. The woman replied "A billionaire."
