[Simo]

Yes, it comes from my home town.. Warrington.

[wideboy]

jesus! all the way to dumfries for wot ended up being a crap cruise..he must b keen! is it any good? i had a look under the bonnet n it was a little messy

not keen on the graphics either

[Girlscanrace2]

nice looking car but like joe said i ant too keen myself on them graphics i think it spoil's it

[Andyt]

the smoothed in skirt looks a bit weird at the rear arch.

[wideboy]

shuda got the splitter smoothed in while he was at it.

like the wheels on it tho

[Dan]

is that not for sale on ebay? theres one similar on ebay if it is not this one! i quite like it to be honest!

[Graeme]

the guy that used to own it owns a car audio shop in warrington! he sold it a few months ago!! it looks well good in real life except for the graphics!! its got a carbon bonnet as well!!

[wideboy]

it didnt hav any carbon wen i seen it, and the interior im not so keen on....light blue! altho his ice is pretty sweet!

[SaxoAL]

I don't know the graphic arn't too bad! I've seen worse! A lot worse!

[Simo]

It used to park outside warrington car radio a lot... but he doesnt own that place... unless he's the 50-odd year old dude! smileys/smiley17.gif

[stretch]

ive seen that in carlisle loads of times , i think the geezer lives here now

[wideboy]

well i hav to admit carlisle is a bit closer than warrington!

u ever make ur way up the road stretch?

[hopey]

if thats a turbo it wont half shift.

[s60tsy]

ive seen it before too near where i live, it is a turbo yeah ive seen under the bonnet. i offered him a race in my nonturbo n he turned me down! sed his boost was turned down. he'd still dust my arse!

[wideboy]

160 brake apparently..

not too shabby for a vtr! wudnt mind proof of that

[Andyt]

We all know that turbo saxos are gonna be seriously quick though.

[wideboy]

id cream my pants watchin a race between a stealthed turbo vtr and a standard 106gti! my bestmate has 1 and he's a cocky b@$tárD - thatd sort him out!

[Dan]

my mates got a vtr that has a proven 133bhp and that eats gti's quite easily! he beats me 0-60 but top end i win! smileys/smiley2.gif

[Simo]

That saxo does have a turbo, but im my opinion, it wasn't developed right... never spoken to the lad who owned it, but i did see a few pics last year.

Real power was my car on the way home on friday after a LONG week at work... feckin thing was squirming sideways and spinning in 2nd in the dry.

Air temp was 6degrees... turbos love cold air!

Put a smile on my face anyhow! smileys/smiley17.gif

[wideboy]

i love burning titwanks who think theyr better than ya! 1 of the best and smuggest feelings in the world! smileys/smiley14.gif

[Simo]

BTW, when i say spinning, I dont mean a little whistle off the tyres, I mean a proper slip developing into smoking tyres as the revs rise.

Not done that in ages, but was in a bad mood smileys/smiley17.gif

[wideboy]

u ever been to crail simo??

[Dan]

mine does that when going round corners in 2nd but does it alot when a little damp!annoying when trying to get a good start!

[Simo]

No, not been to crail... bit far for a day trip really...

Not been in a non-turbo'd vts in years actually... forgot what they are like. I remember big smiles though! smileys/smiley4.gif

[Andyt]

Must be dedication for the small group of us coming down from Scotland to the fcs next month to represent. smileys/smiley2.gif

'tis only a 6 hours after all.

Or maybe i'm just drunk smileys/smiley5.gif

[wideboy]

well next time u get a chance u shud head up 1 weekend! nothing but beautiful thick cold air - ready for being swallowed by turbos!
crails literally on the coast so its always a blast!get sum pretty mean cars up there - seen a VTS turbo completely mince almost anything it raced!so if u wana pay like £15 for a whole day (minus fuel anyway smileys/smiley19.gif ) on the drag strip or on the drift track - get a meet set up! wudnt mind meeting sum of the peeps from the site - and im sure all the scottish boys wudnt mind saying hello!

and im pretty sure if u put ur car in the "show and shine" ud get a pride of place with the hatchback drivers!

[Simo]

Just looked... 4:45 hrs travel each way... so I might take you up on this one time! smileys/smiley14.gif

[wideboy]

well im prob half way..ish - ur welcome to hav a pit stop and a cup of tea here mate! uv been to dumfries before aswell...so thats a bonus!!

[Simo]

Yeah, I will probably try to combine the trip with my next pit stop at gmc smileys/smiley2.gif

[Dan]

i need to go to gmc to have my fuel lines sorted! i no there'd probably be someone round here that could do it but i would like to see what its like and ive never heard a bad word about gmc so im sure they'll do a good job! smileys/smiley2.gif

[wideboy]
