Drifting - FastCar (LARGE PICS - 56K Warning)

Post by ducatievo » 30 Nov 2005 10:09 pm

Sorry no vids as yet, bro's phone got nicked but will sort something out when I have time.

Here's the write up on 'cheap drifting' which he did recently with Fastcar (done before the 5-link setup was made etc).

Enjoy! :D

(p.s if you save the pics to your PC you can zoom in and read the txt)

Impressive stuff!!

Funny how in the article, most of the cars they list as 'shitters' are cars that I'd really really like to own :)

Damn the word has been spread to the chav population! We'll see them wrapped around lamposts on street corners everywhere now!
Very nice to see them in a magazine though,
cheers

Much as I will eternally want to tell FUK to add an "off" to their name (WTF is fast about a 1.2 clio with a monster bodykit?! That's all that seemed to be in there last time I read), I have to give you tremendous kudos for getting 300s into the popular car press. It's just a shame that they couldn't find it in their hearts to be a little more charitable towards the cars. Still, if it keeps away the chavvy wotsits who seem to fill the rest of the pages, I'm all in favour :D

It'd be interested in getting a few fast 300s featured in a hot hatch mag...Husky's 1.7, a turbo redblock (c'mon...someone!), and maybe even my slow-mobile?

cheers

Well done that man!!! I'm also gonna be out a buying tomorrow ;)

Husky's car has been in a magazine, Everyday Classics I think it was, could be wrong though.

And if those pimp grill badges arn't a photoshop, I might even sell my Hella grill to get one on!!

Yeah, Everyday Classics sounded a bit caravan for Husky. If anyone hasa copy of that I'd be keen too, never got to buy it.

So, when are we gonna see this beasty then?
