    You should get a Sprite and mod it out. I really want to do that.

    Looks more like a Transformers project than a car, doesn't it?

    There's this awesome b road on the way home but it's always jammed with people doing 40 (it's a 60 limit - makes me furious). The first time it's ever been clear was tonight... when it's raining seemingly record amounts. Typical. Kinda fun though, and scarey - rwd in the rain is a lot to handle.

    Yeah mine are balding on the outside front right. Apparently it could be tracking, or hard roundabout cornering

    I don't mind sensible speeds on narrow, windy country lanes (especially single track - 60 is insane), but 40 in a 60 on a wide a or b road shouldn't be allowed. 50 is fine...

    I'm just talking about:

    The idiots that are scared of going anywhere at more than 29mph .....on any road (or 36 say on a 50 road, that seems a common one , then they continue at that speed when it dips into a 40 , and continue at that when they dive into a 30 !!! ) , they can't seem to read the road furniture/signage

    The idiots that join a motorway at 40 , more so when you're behind them on the sliproad trying to join at a more sensible speed...

    The idiots that slow down at speed cameras for no reason whatsoever.

    The idiots that slow down at nothing more than slight drizzle ...

    The Idiots that don't seem to be able to use an accelerator pedal when appropriate... it doesn't take much to accelerate at a modest rate on a modern car , god knows how little they're pressing it sometimes.

    The idiots that do the above and can't seem to see the 30 car long tailback behind them , because they don't want to move along a reasonable rate within the limits.


    and breathe
