View Full Version : I love my viagra powered hairdryer
Well it's official. It's ****ing fast. 0-60 in 5.48s :shocked: It's probably faster but I didn't want to abuse the clutch too much. Conanius from OcUK came for a spin last night, and even with him in the car I clocked an impressive 5.81. As soon as I get a new better clutch, bigger injectors, and a new exhaust - I reckon it'll be perfect.
Oh yes it's a big girly car, but it's MY big girly car, and it's ****ing awesome! :D
There was no point to this thread other than re-exerting my masculinity owing to me driving a girly car :p
Needless to say that I've come to work by bike today to make me feel a bit more masculine ;)
5.48s? Bloody hell! I won't be able to keep up with you even when I've got the R32!
I do like your car though :)

And after you tried to claim you were being all manly yesterday! Bah! :p
Lets see how fast it goes with all that hair dressing kit in it!

I was! Jonny got his tools out and we were playing with plugs and wrenches ;)

Oh and the proof:

I'm sure I can get it lower - I reckon sub 5s are easily possible... This time next year I'll be in 4s I reckon ;)

The more I hear about your turbo'd hairdryer, the more I am tempted :D I've even gone so far as to work out that I would need another project away from home to be able to afford a good one.
You aren't helping my saving for a house fund, 5.48!!!! doesn't help either :evil:

It'll be faster soon ;) I want to achieve 4.9 - just to say it's faster than 5s :p
It is vastly underrated and for a car of it's style and size and is remarkably prasctical.
MX-5 just won best drop top in the Scottish Car of the Year awards!
Wooohooo!! \o/ I knew the Scotts had good taste :cool:

There will be other times - ditto it would have been nice to have seen your bimmer :cool:
I have a g-meter thing I could have lent you.

It's basically for being able to do a super duper fast launch (all electronically controlled). I just use amazing mad skillz instead - innit?! :p

I drove this today \o/
Bloody rapid it is too, although a little snug :embarassed:
I was most impressed :)
Faster than mine and a very different drive, certainly very different to WillGill's P1, I was expecting some quite violent turbo action but its actually very smooth and linear more like mine than a JapTurboNutterMobile like a Supra or Impreza.
Not sure about the seating though, the steering wheel is too low for my knees and it feels slightly like being taken forceably in the missionary position but I took it like a man :shocked:

Girly or not it's a nice car. There's no denying it. Not been in it, but I have at least seen it. :)

I assume he means in the car anyway! ;D

I dont actually think its that girly. I like them, and last time I looked, I dont think I am a girl!
Perhaps our next meet, we can compare cars, mine is 4.9 to 60, alledgedly.

Well by then I hope to be around 220bhp so it'll be a fun time! :D
I still want a go in your cobra though! ;) Or did you get rid of it to get the scoob?

Got my eyes on a '34 ford 3 Window HotRod (a la ZZ Top!) build for next year. All depends on the missus! She wants me to build her a Porsche 356 Speedster!!
