| http://speedhunters.com/archive/2011/04/11/news-gt-gt-r-i-p-rusty-slammington.aspxOpinions on this? (I can already guess what Jimmy thinks...) Not sure whether i'm gutted that it's gone or not. At least people will stop focusing on this and more cars can take the spotlight now. Apparently it was Speedhunters car of the year. A bit ironic really as it probably couldn't do much more than 60 for fear of ripping the bottom out. | |

| A massive improvement...
Nah, I joke, I understand and appreciate how much time and work went into it, and the masses clearly loved it, it just wasn't my cup of tea... At least there's still that lush E36!
Nut yeah, i'd be gutted if I woke up to that (unless he had good insurance) | |

| Dude that sucks! I loved this car but was never a fan of the roof chop.
At least it gives him a chance to get his hands dirty with another project | |

| I loved it when it had the trailer and unlike most people even more with the roof chop and gold ronals He must be gutted but has to keep it for garden sculpture My caddy had a electrical fire under the dash once in the barn and I was rushing about. Thankfully it went out but it was scary | |

Well if you look at what happened to Rhi's car, there wasn't much left of Mark's wheels either. Anyway, this'll explain the whole thing (the video at the bottom shows how insane it was)... http://stanceworks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16717I genuinely do feel sorry for the guy. I wasn't a major fan of the car, but the effort he put into it showed how much he loved it. Give it 3 years and he'll have perfected whatever it is that he picks up. I'm hoping he does something big with a 2002. | |
