Has anyone noticed that when they are carrying the chassis back out to the trailer, and it is on its side, it lookd uncannily like an MK indy chassis, with fittings for a bike cradle, i may be wrong but it seems that way!

MK make the chassis for ADD (or whatever they're called)

Ummmm what can you say about that program then....and not get sued for liable !!!!

100% bollox.

Cheers Ian.....you took the words right out of my keyboard.......welding on that second chassis was a bit??????

Keep watching, the front suspension brackets break off when some company test it by putting weight on the front.

tell me, he carried the chassis into his shed on its side through his house. how the bleep is he going to get the car out.

There is no way i would make a program like that. The bloke has not done his homework and it shows!

i am still in shock he was so amazed by a pop rivet and when they talk about it taking hours to pop the floor on with that automatic one took us about 3 hours buy hand and having to go get a new one after braking the old

The manufacturer of the first chassis must be thanking his lucky stars that he was ditched in program 1!!! speak about a lucky escape!

Admit it - weren't you all like that at some stage? You've got to start somewhere.

He hasn't done any real research it seems though - i can't believe he was shocked by how long it takes. These things always take longer, more effort and are more expensive than you can ever budget for.

Budgets are simple, don't bother, if you do then the car will be a compromise. Use ball park figures but never save money on something if you know it will make it "not right"

Now that he is using the new chassis that will have the Busa engine in the back, whats he gonna do with the 'special' diff he bought?

I like this programme.....it makes me feel like a pro kit builder (compared to him!)

Bugger missed it, anyone know if its being repeated,which I know is a daft question for discovery, but over the next few days.
Cheers,
Bob

only found out last night it's repeated on tuesday night 10pm on H & L channel then 11pm on the plus +1hr H & L channel

the domminator chassis is a copy of the GT1 by the way

Why hasn't Jons' front suspension fallen off then?

IIRC when he was talking about using the crane to lift the car over the house he mentioned having to remove some cables and the camera showed a pole with all the local power cables on it.

Who would let him do that?

Load of old soapy tit wank that program

Wich channel??

and is it discovery europe??

Etc.

i also saw marke evens and his westy..quit good was that altough

it always keeps beeing movi..

we know the true!!

Lets face it, a lot of it sounds like a jumped up bunch of tv luvvies making a programme on something they know nowt about and have no intention of finding out about!

After being on Scrapheap i take all of these type of progs with a pinch of salt. They always have hidden agendas and will always do something that will make good TV even at the detriment of the subject. Unfortunately it looks like they are doing our beloved hobby an injustice this time. The positive side is it shows that it is possible to build a competent track car at home with no previous experiance. Hopefully people will see this as a guide on how not to do.

Take wife swaps for example - they always do the swaps with the most opposite of couples so they can promote arguments and drama.
