Likeing that, not loads but liking it! Budget drag/track sleepers are on the up at the moment.

There was a standard looking purple corsa with halfords wheel trims running mid 12 second 1/4 mile at the weekend! Crazy fun little car!

This one?

BTW:

Errghhh Hi,
yes i am he the owner of the "isaac hunt"nova for all my sins.Thanks for the positive comments as it's so easy to label it as chav being a nova.
The car ran a [email protected] nearly two years ago at avon park and the whole thing stands me £3500.00 all in.
The cars been on the backburner for the last 18months as i sold the engine.I must point out i'm not your typical nova driver even though i have a nova 2dr saloon c/w moons,chain wheel and a channeled axle(-140mm) as a daily drive,and i don't know many nova lovers are going to the viva las vegas weekender next month like me.

I found this forum thanks to julian the guy with the poo-loo polo and he suggested i show my daily drive on here some time.Anyway the site looks good and theres a nice bunch of rides with not to much bitching on here which is cool by me.
Cheers
Ade.

Haha ok, just someone I know decided it would be a good idea to run a 100bhp shot of *** in a 120bhp car

Resulting in the inlet smashing to pieces causing a few dents in the bonnet!

Heh dunno what that means, but he doesn't give a damn about the car. Its had about 6 gearboxes, 5 engines, 5 sets of driveshafts etc

It's got rims even you might like though!

Too big...Nice dish though - Borbet or Azev?

Basically, he's put the nitrous system so that it is injected into the plenum chamber.

This means that the plenum chamber is full of explosive stuff.

That means that, when the car backfires, the plenum chamber explodes.

Idiot tbh.

Not angular enough to be Borbet As (one of my all-time fave wheels):

Nice though...Would be nicer in 13" or 15" though...

...And fantastic in a 15x9 flavour.

Think an 11second Robin Reliant would be even more impressive than either of those two

John Beardmore built a V8-powered Reliant Kitten many moons ago.
