Gambit Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 I reckon it's one of the most annoying things about driving a scoob the amount of !Removed! you get doing stupid stuff and dangerous over taking. :( 3
ChrisD Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 Gaulson you are crazy, how did you manage to hold the road doing 64 mph on those gentle bends! you did well to keep up with the KA, but we all know that if he wanted to his V-tec powered nitrous V13 25.6L engine would kick in and he would just leave you and everyone else. But on a serious note that KA is not a performance car... please don't try and drive it like one :') 3
Gaulson Posted August 19, 2015 Author Posted August 19, 2015 I almost lost it, felt the back end wanting to step out so had to let off the throttle slightly... good thing I've got that big wing on the back for downforce :O. 3
ChrisD Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 Ka don't need a wing, they are so well planted any way Sent from my D6603 using Tapatalk
BoozyDave Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 one of my nephews had a KA, he said he turned right at a local roundabout and was doing 120mph around it. I took him out in my scooby on a private road and he was sh1tting himself when I was taking a corner at 80mph 2
Gaulson Posted August 21, 2015 Author Posted August 21, 2015 Isn't a KAs top speed something like 115mph?
Dogconker Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 A brand new KA might do 115, an older one would be lucky to pass 100 mph Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1
stants Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Does that take into account tail wind down hill & with the mirrors folded in for better aero ?
Dogconker Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Yeah, because KAs are so aerodynamic that those things will have s huge effect [emoji23] Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
stants Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 My ex misses had two the 07 was more 'refined' 2 weeks after she picked it up I had the pleasure of dropping her at Blackpool airport & returning to leeds, needless to say it was rubbish up hill but those of you that know the m62 will know that either side o Saddleworth moor there's quite a long down hill section, [emoji51] managed a new ka land speed attempt on the way home. I put down not attaining vmax speed due to it not being run in properly yet 1
Gaulson Posted August 21, 2015 Author Posted August 21, 2015 So you don't hold the record then Stants? :(
stants Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Not sure this was a few years ago so I may have been usurped by a sport ka or such like it started to protest at an indicated 100 by violently shaking alot, it would have been better on the down hill stretch in the opposite direction, it's steeper ☺
Gaulson Posted August 21, 2015 Author Posted August 21, 2015 Maybe it was about to travel through time? You just needed 5mph more and BOOM you would have vanished. 1
stants Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Would have made for a nicer alternative to visiting blackpool [emoji51] keep deleting all my dash cam footage, should really clip it all and make it into montages
salsa-king Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 anyone else running a duel camera dash cam? if so what you go and how good is it? getting a bit frustrated with mine.... the other day it re set its date to 2013 and then when i went to menu to alter it everything was in japanese lol I've sorted it but wonder if a bit more expensive cam would be better.. i only paid £44
Gaulson Posted August 24, 2015 Author Posted August 24, 2015 My camera is a Blackvue and I have no complaints :). Bit expensive though but it all works as it should and picture quality is great, night time you can see everything. 1
Gaulson Posted August 25, 2015 Author Posted August 25, 2015 Wow that was very wet, we had weather like that on Sunday. Also lightening struck so close to my house all power went for about 10 seconds!
salsa-king Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 anyone got one like this, or want to buy it and tell me what it's like? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1080P-HD-2-7-DUAL-LENSE-Car-DVR-Dash-Camera-Video-Cam-Recorder-Night-Vision-UK/121740299202?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D33052%26meid%3D1bb9de1737dc4068904ff70d6ac0253e%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D161806498040
bitman Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 why do you drive in the middle of the road? are you a traffic copper or so?
Scoobyghost Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Was it to prevent the guy using the filter lane?
bitman Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Was it to prevent the guy using the filter lane? that's non of any once business but police
Sandals Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 People are supposed to fill both lanes then filter.... otherwise the tailback from one lane could cause issues at junctions and roundabouts etc.... 2
