Hey,

The 3rd episode was on Friday nite at 8pm (as it is every week). The show had massive potential, until Ian Luff was made the head honcho because he praises everyone through the event cheering and saying how brilliant their cars are but then smacks them down at the end saying they are pathetic and car can't handle and has too much power yadda yadda.

<cut cut>

Andrew in the 200SX spends more time in the workshop than the track and at best will finish the show in last position.

I actually watched the first episode and parts of it were good but what really confused me was when he was driving around the skidpan and his ratings afterward.

I thought the ratings were handling based because he knocked the big V8's for lack of handling, and even the Ferrari and complimented the Torana because he could control it with the accelerator.

But then he got the 200SX through with a really quick time and pretty good handling, complimented it and got to the review and put it nearly last for that event!

The rating system makes no sense to me, most of the cars are pretty impressive though.

still think luff is a tool. the show was moderately interesting, i'd like to know how people can afford to twin turbo a 360 though!

probably won't bother looking out for it again, it just didn't grab me. the first drag "challenge" was a waste of time, anyone who is still frying tyres at half track isn't taking it seriously.

seems to me like it's just an excuse for luff to indulge himself, and the car owners to get their moment in the spotlight so they can show off and have people stroke their ego.

Ive seen all the episodes.And i must say none of them can drive.They just put their foot to the floor and expect the car to do the rest.6 out of the 7 drivers spun in the motokana.Even with Ians instuctions they still spun.

So they all deserved the caining that Luffy dished out.

    • Went to a drift practice day at a local circuit (held on the reserve parking area behind the grandstand) for the first time in about 15 years. Some kei cars were drifting as well, a not so surprising Suzuki Carry truck, and two 1st gen Daihatsu Copens that were converted to rear wheel drive(!) using Daihatsu Boon X4 transfer case, prop shaft and rear diff, obviously omitting the front driveshafts. They looked really fun to slide. I heard that they cost "about half" as much as a Nissan Silvia etc to run.  On the track 'Tech M' a local BMW tuning garage had a customer track day. Mainly recent models but there was one E36 which looked ancient among all the current models. It was cool watching the drifting and then turning around and seeing random people thrashing their M3/4s  central-circuit-drift-practice-2025-05-18-long-yt.mp4
    • I prefer it with those wheels (sacrilege?) 😋 Here's a photo of a fully original one for reference. The price is $350K....
    • I would like to keep it around 15k but if I need more to make it reliable and not have to worry about the car breaking I can go more. It's my project car so I'm just trying g to figure out what needs to be in it i know basic things like turbo cams injectors I'm just unsure of the size and the specifics so I'm spending alot of time on Google and its mostly rb25 and rb26 not alot on neo
    • This. They would need some tricky maneouvering to keep the income out of the country (the US). Which isn't helpful if that's where you want the income to end up.
