mccombie_5 Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 Liked the little run of "The Roof is on Fire" at the end... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drpellypo Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Quality. I guess the driver got away OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 The poor, poor bugger who owned the car. That must have been months and months of work in the making. I really feel for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mccombie_5 Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Yeah, it's a shame, it probably went like stink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachel Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Well - looking at the end of the clip - it seems like the front engine is relatively unscathed. So he only has to do 1/2 a restoration! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Yeah right! I guess he can save on a respray as well, and leave it as two tone - red at the front, sh*tty browny blacky sludge colour at the back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brabus Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Best thing for it really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tainted_love Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 i dont see any fans for cooling or intake there........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntW Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 [ QUOTE ] i dont see any fans for cooling or intake there........... [/ QUOTE ] that was my first thought on seeing the video. Usually there ae some very large fans blowing air into the engine. Guy was a bit of a fool for sticking it on a dyno with no cooling, and the owners of the dyno should have known better.

Paul Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 [ QUOTE ] i dont see any fans for cooling or intake there........... [/ QUOTE ] i dont think the vibration in the engine helped either. May have cracked/ ruptured something, as there was a shocking amount of movement from that rear engine, especially as its just behind the drivers head!

[/ QUOTE ] Exactly what I was thinking. I don't think any serious motoring engineer would think the engine movement was right - there was far too much lift visible. Bad job, bad result.

xspencex Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Personally I thought the 'Carmen Electra celebrates spring break' video on the same page had more visual appeal.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNiceMrMe Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Aye, I bet the bloke in the Golf felt just as big a tit though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOSE Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Yep, cooler fans are a must. I had three of the buggas on mine as shown in the pic below. Also had two larger things sucking all the crap out the rear end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOSE Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 More than likely mate. Those fans create a hell of a lot of Noise!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
