GlanzaRye Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 We've all done it, pulled up at the lights next to another car enthusiast knowing full well a race is about to go down! My question is, what car made you feel nervous about losing but, you actually beat!And question 2, What moment made you love your car. Example: smoking some bellend in a merc with all his mates!Fire away ladies and gents Quote
DevonGT Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 The Kia Cee'd had me worried as it once was the Top Gear reasonably priced car, but i did it easy. I really loved my car after It wasted a Vauxhall Astra 1.6 Tech Line as that's the present Top gear car. Quote
daniel_g Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Every time i try it i get a 'danger to manifold' warning light come up on my laptop, then my floor drops out and i fry my piston rings. Quote
Whitenoize Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) I beat the car from back to the future then it disappeared in a puff of smoke to the seconded question I don't love my car at the min it's a pice of shit if my garage wasn't connected to the house I would prob have burnt it today Edited January 15, 2015 by Whitenoize Quote
morgey Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 I havent enjoyed my starlet in a year or 2 now, it drives like a sack of shit and im too slack to fix it, hence i made my daily better instead as that actually drives well lol Quote
JoJo_228 Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 I felt extremely nervous when a Polo was 'racing' me... I was just being the sensible driver that I am.. Foot slightly down, but not excessively..I was winning.. OBV... Then he was gaining on me.. massively and I thought 'damn, stupid Starlet'The twat didn't realise that there was a red light that I was slowing down for and eventually stopped.. He went straight through, middle of town at rush hour. Needless to say, it made me giggle. A moment hasn't made me 'love' my car - it just gets me from A to B at the minute.. I can't afford to run/insure/tax/mod it in any way shape or form.. So she's filthy, sounds unloved and looks unloved. Quote
JamesD89 Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 I dropped the megabus on the way back from picking up the N/a earlier, was quite chuffed when I found out it has a good couple hundred bhp. Put over 50 people to shame Quote
Ollieh17 Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 I beat a ferrari doing 60mph, flew past it at 66. Nah, I like pretending to race and pulling off slowly, makes the other person look a dick and switches the 'boy racer' sterotype around alot. Quote

I think the happiest ive been was trying to get a lp570 to play after I was gaining on it he slowed right down needless to say I don't think he was to happy with his v12 Quote

Matt1878 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I'm sure we all mean beat on a private road too. We all adhear to the UK speed limits im guessing. Have you ever tried overtaking a car when you are both doing 30?..When the road went from a 30 to a 50 I was the quickest to get up to 50 and managed to overtake a DB9 ;) Quote
Chops Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 i went so fast I overtook myself once, that was a pretty impressive feat :L Quote
Cammy R Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 i remember when i used to race but then i took an arrow to the knee Quote
FMuscle Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I passed a 600hp vehicle with ease in my N/A. These road trains are impressive, but not that quick... Quote
Flaminsam Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I've upset a 320bhp Porsche by telling him mine was only a 1.3. His face dropped when he came to the realisation that he "lost" But besides that I just love how good these things handle on the back roads. Don't even have to be going fast and they are still impressive. Quote
