I think it looks fine as you can tell it's an insane drag machine. When it's going 148mph, does it matter how it looks?

Before anyone says, obviously not as insane as the big budget US guys, but I think fastest FWD car in the UK is enough to call it insane.

What about driving your car hard for 1/4 of a mile??Does that do it for you Eck??


It's more of a cheap thrill lol.

I just like to do it in a car that looks as good as it goes.

Each to there own and all that.

Exactly mate lol. It just seems like you have to go with what everyone says on here and if you don't your not part of the "in crowd".

i like the fact its a tigra cos you would never expect the fastest uk fwd 1/4 mile car to be tigra :-)

its good to break trends and do things different!

those vids really show how fast it is, cant really imagine getting to 148mph in under 10 sec! must take fair bit of skill to drive the car to be fair :-)

i thought my vx220 was fast getting to just over 100 in 10 secs, lol
