The trouble with trouble is...it always starts as fun.

Re: Lexus V8 marries Lotus 7
Daai lyk mos nou na n lekker speel ding, maar ek kan net nie ophou wonder hoe gaan hulle n groot genoeg radiator daar voor inkry om daai enjin koud te hou nie.

Re: Lexus V8 marries Lotus 7
Do not need a radiator as it will be flying and the air is cooler high up 
But it should be a magic feeling to drive a beast like that

Re: Lexus V8 marries Lotus 7
About 100kg of lead weights at the back might just save a bit of rubber. 
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Dont forget the wheelie bar, you might need it, a mate had one with a Toyota 1600 twincam Motor in it and he was able to get the front wheels off the ground with that thing
