Why feel sorry for him? That's his missus not some random off the Internet

Exactly.

Comments at the bottom of what page? The justgiving one? As I can't see any, unless I'm being blind.

This morning

Should be interesting to see the outcome!

Has he managed to get tax and insurance for his tow car yet?

Akagi · 21 Feb 2017 at 09:10

Managed to get what and what for it?

After that comment above, I actually do feel sorry for him too. Poor guy. Hes not exactly Hitler, but the reactions to him must have hurt over time at least. It cant be nice to have so many people laugh at you.

Sadface.

He ignored people's 'in the know' advice as he knew better. Drives around with no tax and insurance, drives dangerously on track, has repaired and still drives the car which should have been written off (if he had insurance) after a fire. He gained his reputation and money to do this by ripping people off from various car forums. Anything else I missed? This is why people have no sympathy.

It's under the updates sub header, comments take a few seconds to load.

Thanks, I think it's my work computer blocking the content.

I bet that lotus elise went around the track quicker and better when it was standard.

He is off his rocker.

I'm genuinely intrigued to see how this thing fares around a track. Guess we'll find out when it's all over social networks.

It's already been round since it was re-built, didn't do too well but suspension was as high as possible for "ease of access" underneath in the pits... Supposedly

It also helps with testing, lots of testing

It's been around a few times, there are a few pictures of it but nobody knows how fast it is as he doesn't release any of his times.

If they were good, he would. So there you are then.

a1ex2001 · 21 Feb 2017 at 16:45

Clearly slow as a big bag of slow things going up a steep hill in the snow. He needs help he is wasting his life on the wreck when he could be enjoying himself!

We know they aren't going good but the question is how slow is it really? Around the same times as a normal elise? Or even slower?

Akagi · 21 Feb 2017 at 17:00

I recon it is slower on a technical circuit, and faster on one with a few straight bits, simply because of the turbo.

As said above, if you read about the guy he has ripped off loads of people.

Akagi · 21 Feb 2017 at 17:23

I just meant because he sounds like he may actually have something the matter with him. Some kinds of psychosis cause delusions of grandeur and things. A feeling that he is better than other people, possibly hence not paying people back. Lots of stuff like that.

The post from his (supposed) missus just underlines the reality of it and how it affects his family.

It made me feel sad. The first time I have done since first hearing about the Turbotoaster legacy.
