Not a dis or anything but those style of wheels always look smaller than what they actually are,compared to wheels that have spokes that go right to the edge

Yeah i know what ya mean mate,but saying that......i use to run normal box's in mine for a while cause it use to wreck them once a week!....lol so i binned the ABS so it only use to take me an hour to change it and it use to grip surprisingly well i even did a 5.7 run with one once
Even tho i ran 250 hp it was still pretty drivable in 1st and 2nd,its how ya drive it that counts just apply the throttle slowly and get the feel of how the car works and she will be proper quick i tell thee

Bad news today, more delays with the car, will be about another 2 weeks before I can get it now! Loan company have lost cheque and won't issue another for 10 days, wankers!
So I've left a deposit and insured the fooker, its sat there and I can't have it! It so frustrating seeing it sat there but I cant have it!
What was your best 1/4 mile then?
The guy I'm buying the car off owns a tuning company (its his demo car at the moment) says with a new bottom end in, a bit more boost and a couple of mods on it, he's hoping for 325bhp from it. And thats from John Nobles tight rolling road! I'm always a scepticle bugger, so I'll believe that when I see it! I'd be pleased as punch if it can get low 13's or high 12's. Seeing how it destroys things on the road, I've got my fingers crossed for the 1/4! Obviousally need to get the LSD on and a couple of rims with good drag tyres on!
What would you say is the better car? Silly power FWD or a nice Stg3 RWD, since you have had both? I was soooo gonna get a cossie, then I went in this and I've never laughed so much in my life, so had to have it!
..just sought out those brakes and get a bigger blower

My best qtr at the pod was 13.6@108 
anywhere around the 13.5 sec mark on a qtr mile shows that you have a very good horsepowered rst. You need to beat Jamies(Jamsport) time of 13.2@112 if ya want to be the daddy
The escort was a good laugh but can honestly say i'm glad i've gone to 2wd cossy because of the way it drives and looks,although to compete with it its mega bucks which is why i'm thinking about doing another zvh just for a laugh. My mate has built a zvh which will be running some proper times this year and i'll be with him at most shootouts.Its running around 350hp and has already been run upto 324 at 20psi on the engine dyno
heres a pic......... so be afraid 
INVADER........How fookin big do ya want the blower to be!!.....lol
Paulp...... It was the style i went for rather than size but in the flesh they do look alot better than on a pic mate but i know what ya mean.
Mr.worth.....i was going to go coilovers but decided not to cause of that problem,a mate of mine found that out the hard way

Keith, my cars not an RST, still not saying what it is
6-speed box (hence 180mph top speed) should give it away though lol
Looking at cars simelar to mine they seem to get anything from the high 12's to about 13.4. But I know I'm not going to get the best out of it for a while! If I could squeeze it into the 12's with a set of decent drag tyres I'd be as happy as a dog with 5 dicks. Mid 13's would put a super smile on my face!
Looking forwad to seeing your mates car set some good times this year!

I'd of never thought I'd of bought one, and I only have got it for the engine...... its a Corsa......
But it doesn't have any gay boy kit on, just looks nice and suttle. Set of 16's and lowered. Street sleeper!
I've a pic of it, but it's got some wanky 17's he just chucked on it to get it to a show. Now sporting a set of speedlines. Even got standard interior! Reason for the plate is he gave the car to his bird when he built it....
The importnat bit!

Was that on Rev. Bob's?
I've been with a mate to film with him. A lot of people slate him/the show, but he's one of the funniest fookers I've ever met!
Dunno what the filming is for, I've a nasty feeling it's for Max Power
Better get some neons stuck on it ROFL

Believe me its worth begging to get a go in!
Just stopped the car, plonked it in second, revved the tits off it, whipped clutch out, one gear change and we had hit 100 in no time, easy sub 6 seconds!
Anyway I'm deffo getting the car on Monday, so I'll be down Notts not the Sunday after (Its the footy final and England will be winning it!) but the sunday after that, so get yourself down!
