Thats the beast! PEPE!

thats insane ...lol
i remember the car...........
i do not remember it being painted by a blind man under the bonnet :eek:
what a mess! someone had too much spare cash lying around methinks
Think you'll find BTCC had certain regulations on engine output & chassis…
This car doesn't have to adhere to any such limits.
Should be on the road by now, but knowing the man - probably not.
BTW if you're reading this Graham - bet I make more downforce than yours :P
remember it well from roybacer days...
Looked nice on the astra sport wheels and very very low lol
wow ive got a few pics of this car saved to my pics, had them on there for donks and never seen under the bonnet, looks fapping crazy!

it was his if i remember correcly also im sure he owns some flash garage near london and also owns evos 360moddenas ect so no doubt the nova got pushed aside for just such toys
flush simons thread was unreal thats the soul car that gave me the inspiration to build the turbo and start my wip thread top bloke awsome engineer but easily distracted from his car by world of war craft!

How much has that been lowered and what size are the wheels?
guessing wheel's are 17's, and it's been lowered a hell of a lot, 70-80ish i guess, probably lower
