Modified Chimaera Club (MCC)

from an outsiders point of view if this is to be an elite club, then the number of memebrs should be limited, that is what make it elite.
6 years ago when I first had a griff anything north of 300bhp was considered a monster, so to get a naturally aspirated rv8 with 330 to 350 bhp was quite an achievement, nowadays with more people being interested in modifying their engines these outputs are quite commonplace, so an elite club should be for engines with 360+??
sorry Daz
This has made me think, perhaps we should have different classes of membership, for example:6 years ago when I first had a griff anything north of 300bhp was considered a monster, so to get a naturally aspirated rv8 with 330 to 350 bhp was quite an achievement, nowadays with more people being interested in modifying their engines these outputs are quite commonplace, so an elite club should be for engines with 360+??
sorry Daz
1 Less than 320 bhp but has some other redeeming attribute worthy of note (like VERY worthy)
2 320 - 350 bhp
3 351 - 399 bhp
4 400 and up
These could further be descibed as:
1 - honourary member/trainee nutter
2 - Nutter
3 - Total Nutter
4 - Complete Fe**ing Nutter
Or something similar

I know only too well how the journey begins down the slippery slope of [mass]modification, that so often begins with nothing more than a chromed tail pipe cover, or the polishing of a bolt head.
I have several times experienced first hand the destruction caused by putting too many horses in too small a corral.
Not for my car, such a fate.
If any of you should choose the path to repentance and redemption... Un-Modified Chimaera Club (UMCC).
Minor modifications, where the original parts are no longer available, or providing they do not dramatically improve performance, or visibly alter the appearance of the vehicle, may be given special dispensation.
I await my official ban notice with [eager] anticipation.

Anyway, you are our nemesis, our antithesis, our antichrist, you are our, er, oasis of light in a desert of darkness, a shining moon in the deep darkness of space, a ray of hope in our gloomy world of ill conceived upgrades. Just as Superman needs Lex Luthor, so it is with us...
