Default Cool and awesome cars and discussion.

Every now and then you come across cars that are worth sharing, so post them here!

Few rules though, just to keep things clean...


Discussion is welcome, but don't degrade it into stupid "ermahgerd its got a wing on it, ghey ricer poop" sort of stuff...don't like it, be nice. The world of modified cars is broad and beautiful, a persons taste may not be the same as yours, but they shouldn't be ridiculed for it.

Try to keep pics to a good size...nothing to big.

No wide body Taurus or blue Au coupe... ain't nobody got time for trolling.

So....lets kick it off...

One of my favourites, the f40

From this

Then there's their usual hot rodding they do, their latest episode has such a sweet cussy...

Is it a build in progress, or a design for a future build?

Soo...WTAC 2013 has been run...so lets look at some cars.


The most well knowen is the Team Nemo Evo. Very little of the orginal car remains, with a insane full carbon body and a raft of chassis changes...over 800hp from the 4G63 4 banger...

Was successful in 2012, Warren Luff set a record 1:25.02 lap time, 2013 was troublesome for the team and didn't complete a run. Garth Waldons Tilton Evo set the record at 1:24.8550.

To put those times in perspective, Tander has done a V8SC record of 1:30.9123...WTAC cars don't use slicks either...

More here.





Pan-speed RX-7...55.603 around Tsukuba Circuit
