Same could be said for a lot of motorsport formulae.
You can spend a lot more money on going in a straight line than going round corners.

Some people on here are so negative. Jed built a budget drag car that ran some decent times. Why cant people on a corsa forum just be glad it was built and used instead of throwing insults about all the time? Im sure whatever is built next will come back even better and still embarassing more expensive motors.

Apparently it is quite difficult to get it off a trailer though.

Bunch of cunts on here tbh... Be built a car that was capable of doing very decent times for about 1/4 of what most people spent. Don't see everybody's problem tbh.
People are spending thousands more for a second or so faster on the strip.
Built to his spec, car has unfortunately been damaged, and all you people can do is taunt him.
Should be congratulating him on what he achieved by himself.

If I wrote my car off trying to get it off a trailer I'd expect to get some abuse for it

If anyone is being a nob in here, read their post and think 'what a nob'.
You can get all mad and reply, or you can think 'nob'.
And he's hardly down, if he wants another car to bodge together and go racing again, he'll do that. I get the feeling he's not that bothered seen as there's a thread about it. I personally wouldn't do that if I was gutted about needing to scrap a shell. Particularly when I can pick another one up for 50 quid and continue having the same hobby on the cheap.
If Ben wants to say its shit, sure, we can look at him in his glass house and call him a fucking gay for driving a convertible. Or if Dan think Jed is a monkey, I'd remind Dan how much money he stakes tracking a good car. I couldn't do that, but no one calls me a monkey?

Those who get upset because someone voiced an opinion about their car need to do the same, even more so when it's not even their car.
Also if you are making no attempt to make it look good, which is completely fair enough when you are just chasing times, I've no idea why you'd get so worked up when some said it looked shit.
In summary, lighten up ffs.

The first line of this whole thread is Jed being good hearted. He's clearly not 'down'. People are too sensitive about somebody elses stuff.

Some people simply don't know what banter is. They must live awfully boring lives.
I never said it wasn't quick, nor that he didn't do well. I simply said it was a piece of shit, which it was. It did what it needed to do and no more than that.
All you cry babies need to lighten up.
