I'm new here and may appear to be packing the kind of brain usually found in a retarded bint, but I was wondering how easy it would be to make my Forester permanent 2WD?? Think of the extra speed of not running that extra drivetrain I would love to see the look on the face of the prat in the McLaren when I wipe his poo hole!!!

It may be quite difficult to steer then I want to run my beast at Santa Pod next time too. I know its a Forester but variable boost control and slicks I reckon I could get into the 12's. What do you guys think??

"Robert" S, If that is your real name,

If you didn't want to provoke the obvious cracks at your name, why did you not register as Rob, Robbie, BobS, RobertS or some other less obvious moniker?

By name and by nature would be too cruel a thing to type. So I won't. EEEEEEE

If you are indeed the real thing, welcome to Scoobynet.

Philip,

a two-wheel drive motorbike, nah, the chain would catch on the rim as you went around corners.

I used to go to college with someone named Dwain Pipe....

His parents, a pair of hippies (and probably stoned at the time) thought it would be amusing....

Dear Mr RS Owner

Dieter is in fact a 'name' but to be honest I could do with losing a 'few' lbs!

Cheers,
Dieter

Nice to know you guys think I drive a <B>R</B>etarded <B>S</B>ierra. Liked the idea of having Nearside drive only on the Subaru,LOL Feels like ever decreasing circles. I reckon my Forester could have most RS Turbo's what do ya reckon?

Hmmm.......you don't, by any chance, live next to Ivor Bigdick do you?

Anyway, forget about running rear wheel drive and slicks. What you want to do is to have the engine tuned (only moderately, say to 250bhp) and run it to the front wheels only. Then, since you've got a lot of room in the back, take out the back seats and install a second engine that drives the rear wheels (I'd recommend a Nissan Skyline lump tuned to 700bhp or so). Whack some racing slicks on and....viola!....you're in business.

Or, if that's a bit tame....why not take out all the seats and the engine. Whack a seat on top of the cabin (wrapped in a plastic bubble to minimise wind resistance) and put in a GE J79 jet engine (they used it in the Phantom jet) driving all four wheels. It produces 34,000hp and should give enough oomph to see off even the most persistent cossie (see a post by Mr. Rainbird for an example) - the only catch is you're liable to melt anything within thirty yards of the exhaust (so best to keep the boot shut)

Hope that helps.....

I'm the RS owner and at the moment it is very retarded after a van did a neat little manoeuvre on me.

I know all about p*ss taking if you ever find out my middle name you'll see why

Has anyone seen the green twin engined Mk1 Golf created by Dubsport (I think) I've seen it go and boy does it shift

I worked with a lad called John Thomas, and someone called Mike Hunt, who curiously never saw the funny side of his name.

ONe of my friends works with an Ivor Kinghorn and an Ars Makadangdang (honestly!)
