I thought; ain't it strange how race cars/non scene cars look soo much better than those trying to fit in to a style:

Take ^ sunbeam:

There is no doubt it is cooler than an eskimo's :blank:
But why?
Form follows function.....You find a random car and take it racing. For the class you're racing in you fit a big engine. So you need to put the power down, so you fit wide wheels. These stick out of the arches so you form some flares to just cover the wheels.

Less weight = more speed so take off anything you don't need, so off go the bumpers, perspex windows..... Don't fill the mounting holes 'cos filler falls out and weighs you down. You only need one wiper so get rid of the spare one!

Your new big engine needs more air, you've got quad head lights, you only need two, so use the spares for air intakes.

Racing is dangerous - so put in a roll cage, not 'cos its cool, but it might save your life. What do need inside? A seat, a wheel some peddles and an oil pressure light (maybe a rev counter), nothing more.

Stick on a race number, and a few sponsers stickers 'cos they give you some money.

Form follows function........FTW. The coolest cars are the one's not trying to be cool.

Just a thought!
