Junkman Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 There is a scene establishing itself in the ex-Soviet countries including East Germany, which will slowly but steadily take care of what little is left of East-chod.So everybody who is into such stuff, please look away now. It's called Comecon-Tuning, or rather the German equivalent "RGW-Tuning" if you want to google it. The really sad news is, that meanwhile even a few Tatras got this treatment.

FredTransit Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 is it me or is 'scene' something akin to banger racing? Decent cars get loads of time/money spent on em to get trashed and end up over the bridge.....oh and some of the pics in this thread have literally made me laugh out loud. Not in a good way.

oldford Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 I saw the red car in the first page and thought 'OK, fair play to him, that looks pretty smart.' Then I skipped a few pages in and saw this... Could someone who's into this kind of thing please explain why this isn't illegal, unroadworthy and MOT-able? I'm genuinely interested to hear from any of the forum's MOT testers to understand how on earth something like that gets a ticket. Unfortunately there's nothing specific in the MOT testers manual about stretched tyres. As a tester I would look at the sidewall instructions on the tyre and if it says mount on a 6" rim, I would get the tape measure from the approved MOT testing tools standard issue tool board and measure the rim width on the car. If it's over 6" I'd fail it on section 4:1:F f. a tyre not fitted in compliance with the manufacturers sidewall instruction, e.g. · a tyre marked ‘NHS’, ‘Not for Highway use’ or similar · an asymmetric with a sidewall marked ‘outer’ fitted with the marking to the inner side of the wheel. And I'd do the same for tubes fitted in tubeless tyres as you can tell from the valve stem if it's a tube. mat_the_cat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Lobster Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Drifting. What's the opinion? Second one below is so funny. Maybe its just me but I don't 'get' drifting at all and yet I enjoy most motorsport. Also, judging from that, safety is a little lax at some drift venues.

Jim Bell Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 The bit where the man is in an empty car park and still crashes into a lamp post. That would be my signature manouvre if I was to rearsteer. I "get" drifting. Its not a race, Its competitive car control, judged on form rather than who crosses the line first. Figure skating as opposed to speed skating. I'm sure drifters wont appreciate that analogy though. fordperv 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morris_ital_lover Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Drifting is to motorsport what dressage is to competitive riding... To do it well it requires skill and the right equipment but at the end of the day, IMHO, it isn't quite as "sporty" as other similar sports. It does also give us some truly mental motors, see exhibit 1: On top of that, they generally leave the "Proper" shite alone, so no real harm done to us.

Negative Creep Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Real drifting is impressive to watch, but sadly it now seems that any half decent rwd car is being bought and ruined. Someone on my facebook just bought a tidy looking Nissan Laurel, and all the comments were that he should drift it fordperv 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brickwall Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I do admire the skills of the "pros", and at least it keeps the fibreglass industry in business. Also, drifting seems to have become the next thing after car cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
