This is a show?! Why have I never heard of this lol? 

 

 

 

but oh my god why did they even let him keep going? How can you be this bad? I don’t get it

 

 

Lol almost every Canadian knows about this show. Over the 13 seasons there were some truly bad drivers, some very emotional storylines. In all honesty I feel bad for Andrew Younghusband because of all the trauma he's been put through.

 

The corvette one is among my top though. Driving on the wrong side of the road and all.

 

A lot of clips are available on Discovery Canada.

Man the Ginetta G57 sounds like such a fun car but I'd probably have much more fun with the Radical SR3RS

No way I giving that console up.  Though, I only have Super Smash Bros Melee and PSO ep1 and 2 for it (yes, I even have a working modem installed on mine).

Yeah buddy, PSO is probably still ranked my #1 game of all time. For single-player and multiplayer experiences. I own 2 copies for gamecube, 1 for the original xbox and my old pc has PSO:BB installed on it. Have you ever tried PSO2? Sadly it hasn't released in the west but my friend found a way to play on the japan servers and there's a few english patches, however it still isn't as good as old school PSO to me

I'd do coilovers over just Springs on stock struts. Quality lowering Springs and lowering struts price wise typically are knocking on the door of a set of bc coilovers

I'm still looking at BC, St suspensions (made by KW, but with a lower warranty) H&R, and Ebachi. Possibly Bilstien because I've seen that come up a couple of times too

I wish BC made coils for my car but sadly don't. So if I don't take these bags I'll either go Eibach or D2 for coilovers

Nope, I have not touched PSO2 considering the pain in the butt to go through to play it from the States.  Also, by my understanding it no where near the fun of PSO ep.1 and 2.

 

You can still play PSO:BB on the PC since some individuals found a way to reverse engineer Sega's online server code.  So, there a few sites out there that host servers for the game (even for the Gamecube version to boot).

 

Been a while since I fired up that game.  Last time I checked I have one character that has around a total of 8,000 hours.  That just on Gamecube, not counting I played since the Dreamcast, Xbox, and PC versions of that game.  (Sole reason I bought a launch day Gamecube back then)

Welp. The end is nigh fam

2018 V8  Vantage: 

 

500 hp around 150k, I think it beats all of the competition around its price.

Does it though? 

 

I mean there is a z06 corvette for $80k which is a great car. Not luxurious or beautiful like an Aston. But a great car

But the sqeaky glassfiber body though....

 

In my eyes the Aston is a winner.

The interior of the Aston is leagues better, and thats before you get to all the individual digital displays. The Z06 is a great car for the value but driving dynamics and overheating reliability aside, there's no beating an AMG warranty.

The bold explains a lot of the difference in price, and since Aston poached Matt Becker from Lotus (their chassis guru) the Aston will probably out handle the Z06 too.

@MEC-777 It looks good but its too... naked. Also Ericsson is still driving next year ffs. Gio is their reserve but will do 6 FP1 sessions between Ferrari and Sauber.
