I fcucking hate that paper...or should I say comic, it's written for people with a mental age of about 10

Bloke was a bit of a **** to post his details on that website though.

well, i made my views on there, which i believe they won't view on there or like.

Its sad to see a National news paper, becoming a police force on its own and having to browse forums to get its next victim.

Question

Anyone else think that the driver looks uncannily like Alex (Vtec to Turbo)

Me thinks there maybe more to this, but I can't put my finger on it

Gotta be lucky to get 150mph from a 220 turbo anyway TBH.

A very good mate of mine has a modded one and theyre very fast but dont enjoy big tope end speed.

what a numpty posting it up. bigger numpty for doing it on a public road in the first place. don't get me wrong i don't always sit at 70mph, but to do that speed on a public road

remember a few years back there was a guy (tokyo business man iirc) who filmed himselft doing 200mph in his ferrari f40 on the motorway then wondered why he got a hiding from the authorities when they managed to identify him.
