You purple topped engined ponce

(threads coming along nicely )

 

aw aw i think i might like this thread

 

Enjoy your walk

 

Watch it Neil, don't forget you're venturing North of the divide in May, bring some warm clothing, and a brollie

 

Banter as much as you like..... my car is going to WALK the handling this year!

 

not if your hands are on the wheel shaun.....

 

Regardless of who "Stig" will be this year (somebody that can REALLY drive will be piloting the car on the handling), I am arrogantly confident that car and driver will trounce all!



This post will self destruct on May 26th!

 

Captain cop out strikes again!!!!

he he

 

You will have to wait until the day to see who "don's" the gloves!

 

Don't forget the rule that came in after last years event, no ex-professional drivers allowed

 

Am I allowed to come along in a heavily tuned MK2 audi S3, or is it scoobies only?

 

When you say heavily tuned ,does it mean the car has underbody neons, neon washer jets and the best mod of all dump valves!

Banny

 

It matters not, if its not you then its a cheat

by the way did anyone take on board my idea for the overall best car? i.e. the fastest combination of 1/4 and handling? i.e. the positions attained in both disceplines to create an overall champ? seems like a no brainer to me!!!

 

I totally agree that this should be done. Only spanner in the works being splitting off the tuner types from the privateers, which I think would have to be done to save the really quick privateer cars being lost down the overall placings. Classification could be tricky - after all both Andy and Paul (for example) have fully spec'd, built and tuned their own cars and their own blood, sweat and tears are in the car but we (and Andy) are happy to admit that we have more facilities and skills for R&D than most!

Having said all that, to be honest I think those that are considered to be tuner entries could easily be decided beforehand - we did this last year when we were offering the prize for fastest non-tuner lap of the handling circuit.

Have to be honest though and say right now that I would fully expect that any privateer entry would *have* to be driven in *all* disciplines by the owner. Sorry Shaun!

Just my 25p (women need to speak more )

Liz @ Zen

PS *If* I had my own Subaru I would whoooooop you all!

 

I was more thinking along the lines of a flamer kit, and slammed on 12 inch rims.

 

Whilst you're walking I'll be sprinting

I take it you're in the pro-class then sean, different driver to owner, let me check the rule book

 

If the webmaster drives he will come no where, should be agood year this year on the handling, a few suprises i think

 

Whilst this is a banter thread, I have to make a serious comment as I agree whole-heartedly with what Liz has said.

I think it would be very unfair on the regular scooby enthusiast for non-tuner entrants to utilise the skills of a more professional/ talented driver. This could cause discontent in the community if that happened and a car won that was quite frankly not expected to.

From the tuners point of view, then it would definately work, as the event showcases their work and why not have a professional in the hot seat.

But for the general community and regular enthusiast, there should be rules that prevent this. Otherwise, what is to stop me or anyone else utilising the services of a professional race driver for £500 a day plus expenses, just to try and win an event. Where's the fun in that? This could be the downfall in a very popular event.

 

Evo North,
You sure about that.....there is more than one webmaster!

And the other webmaster (me) beat one of your Evo colleagues at last years Tuner Grand Prix.... Hensteads Motorsports Yellow 550+bhp Track Prepared EVO. See practice makes all the difference!

Terry,
Please feel free to start a new thread about this if you wish..... would hate to pollute this thread with serious stuff!

 

Terry is right tho

back on the banter.



You're all *****, there

 

Dill,
Only one person around here is right...... and he is typing this!

Anyway... Terry is only coming out with all this, because even after all this modification work has been done, he will still get shown up by a better car and driver on the day!

 

and then youll both be dicked on by me.....end of pro driver or not, bring it on



as you so correctly say shaun....practice makes perfect....

 

So whats been Terry's excuse then?

 

I'm your man. Won't win you anything, but I'll talk the talk
