Was following two M** P**** lads(why do people do that with the letters?)in their 10hp Saxos at the weekend and it made my day what happened next. Yes it did.

Fortunately I was in my Diesel Estate so couldn’t go tearing off into the distance as I would in my Sunny so had to wait for them to get out the way when all of a sudden this guys spoiler came flying off the roof, obviously due to the huge forces exerted by his speed.

Sorry to say my fellow Ph'ers my reactions were not quick enough and I couldn't finish off the offending piece of tack, although I was half contemplating going back up the dual carriageway and having another go at it.

Poor lads looked very upset and a bit confused as to what to do next, stop? walk back?, keep going and go back down and up the carriageway?, pay the £1,50 and get another spoiler? (they come free with Coco Pops. Apparently).

If only I was in the Nissan, that'll show them how you glue spoilers on propa like.

LOL... Its funnier when they take the rear windscreen with them when they go

On the later models the spoiler is only attatched to the glass and so when some twat goes and glues half a jumbo jet to it they tend to just pull the rear screen out

That could have been very serious.

Imagine the sudden loss of downforce due to spolier coming off....

My personal fav is the 22' open spoked alloys that reveal the PUNIEST drums this side of a 2CV. I can barely drive thru the tears...

In most cases if you removed the dodgy bodykit and other tasteful addenda you would add 15mph to their top speed

Try telling Kevin and his friends that!

"check out this spoiler man, it gives me 10% at the top end and holds the back down nicely in the bends....."

Even better, some of them paint the drums red to make them even more visible....

I heard of one nob who had painted calipers onto the drums, what he didn't realise was that it all moved when he set off so when he stopped later on to admire his handywork, it was upside down and facing the sky.

Right [badly written site but what can you do?)
A townie is the same as a M** P****. A guy going round in a Saxo with airkit, 7 grand bodykit, extra-bass sound system etc. its just making fun of the whole 'townie' attitude. Depending on where you live you might have never seen them [probably a good thing considering they make up 98% of the keyscratchers]

That's okay then, I thought it was taking the piss out of anyone who didn't live in the countryside (townie's?). Oh well, can start recommending it now. Max Power boys really are a bunch of bells!

LOL... I actually think there might be room for another wing on the back, and he could possibly squeeze another exhaust pipe in there as well!

Nice stickers though
