Are you going to do many rallies or hillclimbs then Ty?
Dont see the need for anti lag or Launch control on the road Its just pops and bangs on a switch.

Well if you knew anything about LC Calvin then you'd realise that it only is activated when the car is at rest, in 1st gear and the revs hit 5000rpm.

As for AL it's on a switch which can be turned off.

And as you are yet again having a dig at me (seems to be your favourite pastime as others have pointed out to me), but I choose to turn the other cheek proverbially - can I suggest you put more time into your own car rather than criticise other members cars?

What really is Chavvy I find is overloud exhausts...

Sorry John but that's for some of the other members on this thread, there's at least two new contributors who throw theirs about.

Oh yes, I remember that and when I asked you whether we turned left or right you didn't know either; as far as I know we weren't in a rally that day, because if we were you weren't up to much as a navigator.

LMAO at this thread!!

My old Blob had ALS and LC activated as I personally think they add a bit of character I had planned on taking it to Santa Pod or Shakespeare for some 1/4 mile action!

Part of the experience of a Scoob is the noise, anti lag adds the little bit extra noise, especially on tunnel runs I had overrun mapped in before I went 2.1 with the SimTek and loved that! With the AntiLag you get the option of switching it off!

Anyway, back to your original query, you WILL get pulled with your plate, IMO the majority of Chavs/Boy racers etc have illegally spaced/sized number plates! Why give the police a reason to pull you and then slag them if/when they do? Bizarre!! Its your car, do what you want

I didn't know where they were heading so it was 50/50 and we got It wrong. No it wasn't a rally but you still try and keep up so you don't lose the convoy.

Want to know the best thing??
I`m NOT INTENDING ON USING IT ON THE ROAD lol.
I did say early on in the first few posts.

Its to put on when I do track days/shows/cruises/or on a looooooooong blip (if and when I have a FMIC).
IF I were to leave it on and get pulled over its MY fault, the police would be doing their jobs, and I wouldn`t complain.



The funny thing is you can`t joke about (despite saying you are too), without someone calling you a chav, and saying god knows what about you, and making assumptions based on their own personal pet hates.

And then esp some ***** waving and look at me comments, and more bashing of people.




Jeeeeeeeeeeees chill out everybody!!
Take a step back from the keyboard and have a cup of tea, or coffee.

You are absolutely correct but if you cast your mind back I did have a slight engine problem that day.

I didn't realise a sticker on a car compared to being awarded a medal..

The problem is there are so many people on here like sheep, they follow what others do and say....

I was only pointing out, if you like something do it.......Why worry what others think

Perhaps a there a couple of posters inc myself on this thread who have lost sight of the fact that this in effect a venue for like minded people (albeit with differing ideas) to air their opinions.

My ideas are obviously going to be different from other people's, whether they or I like it their opinions are as valid as my own whether I like them or not (their ideas that is).

Perhaps we all take things that are in opposition to ours and consider them an insult, but if we all shared the same ideas/thoughts then this would be a very boring place.

And as for the fishing line being caught on me, bah humbug.

And anti lag is cool (for track use only of course)

Anti lag is cool anywhere. Legal or not. Like speeding we all go above the limit now and again.

Jimbob I thinly the plate is comical and for show use would look good.

I completely disagree Dylan! I NEVER go above the limit, the nine points on my licence were awarded for outstanding driving ability

If you can remember back that far the first sign of the problem was when the top radiator hose blew off just before we go into the McD's in Merthyr Tydfil, let me guess was that a figment of my imagination? It then proceeded to lose power throughout the day.

Never mind though, it's back bigger and better than ever and the only view most of you will have of it in the future is of it pulling away...
