Spotted this beast on the road a few minutes ago. Gotta love my new EnV touch, makes catching bad or good cars so much easier

I didn't know that you could drive into video games because I somehow drove my way into nsfu2.
:scared: I thought Midnight Club went to Mid-day. :sly:

hos is that nos bottle mounted on the bike? shouldn't it be somewhere else?
No a great deal of time the bottle is mounted on the rear swing-arm as demonstrated.


Cheers,
Jetboy
 
@the bike:At least its not going into the fuel tank.....

@the "Gt-K": I would hope its 1/4 the price:lol: Plus its a convertible!!

Homemade Metro 6R4

That Renault owner needs to be dragged into the sun and shot repeatedly at close range! The Gixxer you would hope has the NITROUS bottle, not the NOS energy drink hooked up. :lol: The Metro is a home depot job executed ummm....ahhh.....should be executed would be a better term to use.

This though......

De-lorean Monster Truck

That's a win. It's not an actual Delorean either. Just left over parts from the dude restoring his other DeLoreans. He was on monster garage, and also has his own hovercraft DeLorean.

Terronium. looks like someone slapped some Nissan body cues and a set of aftermarket merc headlights on a Q7

That's actually a Porsche Cayenne. :ill:

Not really like he chopped it up and used the parts on another vehicle, he just removed the trunk and back seat. That was one of the vehicles lined up for the auction at the Back to the 50's car show, so it was obviously a good job.
 
"Clio 172 Homemade strut brace transforms the handling :)"

It took a while to fabricate but oh boy is it worth it.

The car corners much flatter, feels more solid at the front end, and all those local corners I know so well can be taken 10mph more quickly and with much more confidence. Clearly the 172 front end is a thing of fragility as the stiffening has transformed it. Yes that's wood btw, a long way from any real heat and I'm sure the plastic would melt before the wood caught on fire :)

Cost: about £15
Effectiveness: 100%
Safety: well it seems very solid and hardwood catches fire at a higher temperature than the surrounding plastic so it should be OK

In summary, success..

Got to be a joke.
...Please be a joke.
 
Honda Integra with a plywood rear wing

Will there ever be a day where I won't see this picture ever again?

I mean it has to be what, at least 6-8 years old or more.

Plus, it's obviously meant as a rip on ricers/tuners and makes absolutely no attempt at taking itself seriously. It's satire, people.
 
This ...erm... thing is a 49cc nitrous powered wheelbarrow, with (according to the source) the world's loudest stereo system pumping out a deafening 170.7 dB (as a comparison a jet engine at takeoff thrust is about 130dB). Top speed is an astonishing 18mph (watch out Bugatti Veyron :lol:). The cost: $124,000 and thousands of hours of work.

Well, let's liven the thread up again. We've just pulled our Shed of the Year winner, so here's the 12 contenders for you:

For reference the 5th one (Rover Metro) won with 35% of the vote, ahead of the 1st one (Mondeo) and 10th one (Golf) with 13% each. The last one was actually photographed (and crashed) for us by its owner and the second one (Corrado) was photographed by someone from GTP...
 
Well, to be honest, I've never seen a Blower/Hillborn with velo-stacks setup before, but I'll bet it makes some serious power...

if it actually works.
 
And wasn't plastic and bolted to a spray-painted chunk of wood:

Wait. A. Minute. That guy actually wrecked his car for you on purpose? In that crowd, it was actually one of the nicer looking cars.
 
No. We nicked the photos of the car - and subsequent crash - from his site. He then came along to our site and uploaded more photos for us - which makes it a "user-found" car and eligible for the monthly prize. It won December's prize and got put into the SOTY poll as a result.
