bbc news about modified cars

[CLXCraig]

500 people might die each year because their car is moddified. I reckon a lot more die in un modified cars by hitting trees. reduce the number of deaths by cutting all the tree's down.

Where are they getting there fiqure of an extra 200bhp from? How many new drivers/ chavs can afford the work needed to get power figures like that?

How many cars that young drivers can afford to buy and run will take or even produce a power hike like that? Even with stupid amounts spent on them thats a massive gain, Even if you supercharged and fitted NOS to your VTS you'd struggle to get a gain like that.

they bang on about nitrous mostly aswell, but if they just injected nitrous into a normal engine, most would go bang and blow up before they went anywhere fast.

 

[punto_matt]

Exactly why its aload of sh!te.

i watched it other night on ITV lol

 

[punto_matt]

I mean the new one

 

[StevenRB45]

I mean the new one

But the first one was pure class and would explain why the AA hate NOS if that was all the research they've done...if you use nitrous the world goes blurry and there is a danger that you may break the manifold causing the passenger side floor to fall out..

 

[punto_matt]

And they must think NOS is highly flammable aswell.

you fry the piston rings aswell

and remember, if you double clutch it like you should, the floor wouldnt have fallen out, and you dont have to shout at the laptop on the passenger seat

 

[Hellcat]

...and then you can go faster than 140mph!

 

[punto_matt]

You have to change gear at least every 10 seconds aswell. If you need more speed just drop it a gear even if you are redlining it!

 

[Tris Harris]

actually yeah, i never did understand why it randomly spins at 140mph? not as if he has any corners to go round

 

[Hellcat]

What's with double clutching? If you're really driving properly you don't use the clutch to speed up.... you just lift briefly and throw it in.

 

[Tym]

that guy who owns the mr2 would kick himself if he made nos illegal and modifying the car illegal for us all. lol

 

[punto_matt]

I dont get how he has spent 16k on it. Only looked like he had different wheels,nos and lowered.
