Some people may see the installation of a turbo six in place of a V8 in something like a Mach 1 Mustang as sacrilege

it was the mention of "The Barra Six uses a FRONT sump while all the previous Aussie Ford Sixes had a REAR Sump"
which to me.. thinks he's never looked at the sump in a 6Cyl AU, E Series, X Series Falcon.. which is proberly Fords biggest selling cars.. and theyre all FRONT Sump.. where he's implicating that all the previous Aussie Ford Sixes were REAR.. = FAIL |

also a crappy shot but this is a HSV Barina.
i consider it fail because when you have cars like the monaro and the SS i dont see the need for a holden special vehicle 4cyl hatch.

I should've gotten pics of this VN that was next to us today..
massive F'off bonnet scoop from a drag car, and then at the set of lights, he tried to dump the clutch, but the clutch dumped onto the ground instead..

Im sick of looking at badge pics so i'm going to put some effort in and post some good stuff for this thread, hopefully it will re-energise other peoples efforts and clarify what an Epic Fail actually should be. Now pay attention.
So as you can see here there is a 350Z board sliding the railing. How did this happen? Who knows. Is it pretty crazy? Yes. Epic Fail. .  This here is just plain stupid.. Doesn't really need a caption.  Yet another one displaying severe stupidity..  And here's a classic we've all seen before.
