Kit Car Crisis

Anyone know if he made a race in the end?

Just seen his Fury for sale in KitCar for £8.5k.

Yeah, flying.

Just a blur across the screen and then three Fury's trying to keep up (or about to lap you)

you would think that in his 1st year of racing he would buy a 2nd hand car and learn what it's all about. He may hate it!

Bloke's a whally!

Don't get me started on this!!!

The guy keeps going on about how hard it is and as far as I can see has done about 5% himself and the rest has been done by others!!

And as for the crane lifting the car over the house, what an idiot, I gaurantee you it would be cheaper to knock down two fence panels in all of his next door neighbours gardens, get the car out and then replace the panels!!

Even my wife thinks he's an idiot!

Seems like a bit of an idiot... Hasn't seemed to have done any amount of preparation or research...

He's just gone, ooo money lets buy some expensive stuff and go racing in a ridiculously quick car and try not to kill myself...

A crane! lol!

I have to agree, this guys a fudd. Theres nothing wrong with asking for help, but fook me how about having ago yourself first. Hes more of a project manager, knowing what guys to get to do what jobs and when. What hope has he got when he thinks a rivot is the greatest invention ever and joining a chain gives him the horn.

I have a feeling that it will be a very well built car, but no thanks to him. Enough, I will stop,. Whats that other blokes name Mark Evans, a race car is born?? now that was soooo much better.

That's the point where I decided that he was a total loser... I switched off the TV and found something more interesting to do...

I missed most of it this week due to watching Most Haunted Live........................................................BOO!

Did they ever say how much it cost him to crane the car over the house and employ Telecom to drop telephone lines?

Watch it all the time. Must have seen just about every episode. Seen some strange sh*t on that programme!!

I have done a fair bit of research on the paranormal and some of the stuff on Most Haunted is pretty interesting.













BOO!
