Everyone seems to be in competition with one another with the 'mine's gonna be madder than yours when it comes out the bodyshop' blah blah.
Actually irritates me.

I haven't heard that one. Most people on here don't like big kits on here. You always see posts from people saying stuff like 'IMO to OTT for me'...

I'm not naming names, but there's cetain people that just seem in competition with the rest of the board to have the 'maddest' corsa.
I remember when you modded your car for your personal preferences & not to have the most Extreme/ mad car on the site just for the sake of it.

Theres modding your car to your personal tastes or just doing it so that you do have a better car than other people.

And isn't modding cars about competition. Well not in some cases... But if it were just all down to personal taste, why do some people build 'show cars', surely if it were just to personal taste there would be no point in building a 'show car' to show off to the whole world in and try win a trophey at some car show?

Possibly because 'better' is a very difficult work to quantify. Faster you can measure. How mad, lovely or impressive something is you possibly can't.

I suppose you're right, better is a very ambiguous term to use...

I don't tell people my plans cause I can't stand people that go round blagging about what they're going to do but never do it. My brothers like that, id rather tell people after ive done something then talk shit.
