Captain Slow: Right, after all the days and months that has happened to the challenges, and my sudden disappearance while looking like a goat, and swearing at Clarkson for riding a convertible at the back seat while yelling 'Heil Hitler!' at him, it's high for me to pick up the pieces and move on.


Right then, here we go.

30,000.00 GBP = 59,583.77 USD

Just short of $60,000 in other words.

Outlaw-2 just uses £ because Top Gear is English. Its actually still 30,000 credits ingame. wink2.gif

Captain Slow: Yes it is. 30'000 British pounds of British Empire power striking the lands and seas with its crazy currency power. I am already looking at a particular Japanese car at the moment, and it's nickname starts with the letter 'G'.

Ooh, another challenge? I'm in. Hammond will probably appear in some claustrophobic cardboardbox and May will probably end up with 4wd since he can not drive even if his beloved mothers life would depend on it.. I shall let you know my choice tomorrow. So, only oil change allowed? Sounds fair to me.. but I think I will go for handling instead of power this time..

Captain Slow: Oh yeah, get yourself a rusty Renault R5 Turbo that needed a u-turn as big as Germany.

Anyway, I was first to arrive on the circuit with a clean Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 produced in 1989. It costs me 15'574 pounds, which meant I have 14'426 pounds of spare change. I've did an oil change, and did a test on the rolling road, and I've got 304BHP! Reasonable power for such a price.

So.. here's my results.

Deep Forest Family Cup Race @ Difficulty 5...

Position: 1st

Time: 3'08.961

The second place racer was 3.363 seconds behind. Not bad for a start.

With my £30,000 on hand, and knowing May got his hands on an old Skyline, I set about looking for something cheaper and faster. And I found exactly what I needed. An Evo IV in white! Just £10,492 which leaves me with £19,508 to spend on making it faster than the Captain Slowline.

After the free oil change my Evo was kicking out a sweet 277bhp.

Deep Forest results to come...

Deep Forest results!

Taking on a grid consisting of

1. Subaru Impreza Sport Wagon STi '00
2. Nissan Skyline GT-R Vspec '96
3. Mazda RX-7 Type RS (FD) '00
4. Nissan Skyline GT-R Vspec '99
5. Mercedes SL 600 (R129) '98
6. Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IV GSR '96

Lap 1 time: 1'39.147
Lap 2 time: 1'31.247
Total time: 3'10.394

Finishing order

1. Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IV GSR '96 - 3'10.394
2. Nissan Skyline GT-R Vspec '96 - 3'14.796
3. Mazda RX-7 Type RS (FD) '00 - 3'15.374
4. Subaru Impreza Sport Wagon STi '00 - 3'17.999
5. Nissan Skyline GT-R Vspec '99 - 3'19.042
6. Mercedes SL 600 (R129) '98 - 3'19.331

Winning by 3.402 seconds, it was clear how fast the Evo was compared to a Skyline of the same year, and since the R32 '89 is older and therefore inferior... shifty2.gif

But whatever it is, you still ended up having a slower time than my Nissan, which was made in 1989, 7 years older than your carton box with a milk bottle as an engine.

Aha! But see, by having a much cheaper car with similar performance, once the tuning stage begins I'll have £5,000 more than you to spend, about the price of a large turbo. shifty2.gif

I wonder what Clarkson and Tiff will turn up with.

EVERY challenge gets us into the daily top 10. tongue.gif

Clarkson will get a Camaro since that has a lazy V8. Tiff will get some little go-kart to give him that, "funny feeling". laugh.gif

Oh yeah, but the last time he got a Camaro, it only made a pathetic 190bhp. How's that for POWAH!!!!!!!!!!?

But for Tiff, I still think he'd get any car that Clarkson hates... XD

Right then, here's my pics of when I went down to get my R32...

Pretty creepy for a car to even exist at such a place, to the point the R32 itself was staring at me, as if anticipating my arrival.

This was what I got before I even enter the premises...
user posted image

Creepy as it always been, I went to take a closer look, and still, I'm a little shaken. Desolate place, me and the car, only. The other owner seemed to have left behind the keys on the ground, next to the driver's door as well. I wonder why he did such a move.

But no matter, it is one heck of a clean car.

Anyway, onto the race pics, and all I can say is... this car seriously just wants to drive fast, and when I meant fast, I meant fast

Overtaking 5th place.

Overtaking 4th place.

All the overtakings above were done in the first lap! My word.

And here's the view when I got to the leading car.

Seriously, this R32 is waiting for the right time to get up that Wankel engine. And....

It did!

And another one bites the dust!

After the race, I did some thinking and yes, why not do something crazy to it for once?
