Poll: ocuk drag challenge - Buy a bucket, see who can make it fastest.

I think the £500 budget is too restrictive.

You've got to buy a car, get it roadworthy, AND modify it (otherwise it will simply be whomever falls on the best bargain).

Yes a £500 budget potentially opens this up to more people, but I personally think the budget needs to be at least £750 (I nearly voted £1k, but assumed more would vote £750).

Well nobody is getting any decent power increase on a £500 car for £250 a cut off exhaust and some racing stripes are my kind of mods for a £500 car

Rather just spend it on my car ready for when someone organises nurburgring.

What I was thinking lol

You could though. If you don't blow your £500 banger up you can sell it, and in true top gear fashion maybe sell it for more than you paid for it.

Thats the fun in it, who says you have to spend all £500 on the car, ive spotted something for £200 which gives me £300 to play with

Stupid question, but if you're planning on racing it anywhere wouldn't you need a roll cage or some form of racing licence?

Not on anything non-competative, so RWYB or public track days are fine, just need a helmet.

Mention drag challenge in my home city and you'll be swamped by a dozen men dressed as women. I even have a transsexual working for me. We are quite liberal here.

 

[Jumper118]

[kindai]

This seems appropriate.

 

[adam cool dude]

Og Saab 9-3 with b204 would rape this.

 

[Akagi]

2.8 v6 Saab with tractor turbo? Lol

£510 gets you a 80k mile rx8 it wont be the fastest and if it makes it may well be a miracle but this just might be my excuse to buy one.

Over budget sorry.

Over budget sorry.

I still recon I can pick up a proper ropey rx for 500. I might even be able to haggle a tenner off! 500 quid and about a grand for fuel and I'm in
