Trying to go faster this season

gonna put the car on a diet this season. strip out the interior, fit my new fiberglass composite seats, new coilover suspension. reckon about 100KG diet should see me into the 10 second 1/4 mile.

check it out

Re: Trying to go faster this season

Prefer a car with a bit more finesse myself. Nothing like a Lotus for a B road blast. Pick the right one and you get some practicality as well

That Granada takes me back to when I was little though. My dad used to own a 2.8i Ghia

Depends if you like getting a car just so and making it the perfect drive or even pushing a car to the limits of what is possible. Most mods people do though do have a large element of chav in them unfortunately.

Well, there are some right stupid cars on that site but for some reason they've let in some standard and almost standard cars as well.
