Re: ~ Random Car Pics Thread ~
I'm not a fan of truck conversions, the are only 3 car/trucks i like. El Camino, UTE, and Ranchero.
...actually, I only like two of those. Ranchero's suck.

i really like the super slammed look and all this 'wheel fitment' stuff BUT imho a car has to be fast and a good and reliable drift car - after that it can look goodicantdrift wrote:I guess I worded that poorly.

I always have a big smile on my face, when i read comments on speedhunters or sites like that, when people write "needs moar lower" and stuff like that. I´d love to have a go around the Nurburgring with some of these super pants'd cars and see how much is left after 1 lap

All the kids that say "moar lower" drift parking lots only and usually have no desire to be competitive.TurboGrinch wrote:i really like the super slammed look and all this 'wheel fitment' stuff BUT imho a car has to be fast and a good and reliable drift car - after that it can look goodicantdrift wrote:I guess I worded that poorly.

It was built in Poland i think, i really dont like it too, except the missing cabin wall i think the conversion looks good. Bodykit is ugly, galant conversion is awful, i am sorry for the guys that they really bought that car, i would bolt a s13 front on again and just get a new nice bodykit for it. I know that the guys are good guys and do the best to rebuilt the car what they do atm but it will never impress me!
I agree 100% with Martin as you can see on my Bimmer! I like to have the option to do a fast rain setup, for a rain setup you have to switch everything to soft and lift the car, as seen on gravel rallys... Also i do Grip Events with the car to bother Porsche drivers

I couldn't agree more. But that truck thing is so high it's got to roll like a sonofabitch. Even if they lowered it half way to the ground from where it is it would still look high from a style standpoint but likely perform a hell of a lot better.

I like them all ratted out. I've only ever seen them like that in the wild so I just think that "feels" the best.
