bubba no he did, he was really trying and my clutch control is pants 
i just dont know what the spec is for them and wondered if it was a half decent "coup" so to speak. (considering HE instigated it!!)

You're about on a par at normal speeds, I think. You'll beat him off the lights, but I think he's a bit quicker rolling. 
Being beaten in a race is scientifically proven to reduce the length of your *****.

see what your saying, but most of these cars trying to punch above their weight are standard apart from exterioe "styling" modifications.
my car is totally standard even with the sheddy exhaust. ive not spent serious money (yet) on trying to punch above my weight on whatevers next up the performance pyramid.

There are a fair few classics around me generally driven by younger guys (ie under 25) none have lexus lights, none are chavs and all love their cars. Why does being young and having a scoob make you out to be a bad person on here? Oh and fine there are plenty of very quick hatch's out there, sorry to generalise.

Well yeah it is a little unimaginative, but ive driven a few and they are quite fun..i thin the reason ppl do it, well the ones i know who have, have started to modify their first car and by the time they want a quicker car have spent so much on it, wisely or not, that it makes more sense to just keep the same car and make that quicker. i would love to see, and especially hear a supercharged v8 tr7. My dads got a supercharged 67 mustang..that is amazing! except on a b road

andythejock01wrx, I drive a cheap Japanese four door saloon with a 2.0 litre turbo engine that has lots of tacky stuff on it already from the factory, and which benefits not at all from amateur attempts to make it look even worse, but I like the way it handles, stops and accelerates (with some tuning). I previously drove a German RWD coupe that looked nice and respectable but didn't live up to the performance hype, and before that a standard looking and quiet, but heavily modified Scooby.

I wouldn't waste your money on a supercharger!
To call a car gay simply because you don't like it is a little childish don't you think?
