Great thread, X.
Well, lemme tell a story:
Once upon a time there was this guy named Les.
When he was 25 years old Les bought the pieces of a kit to build a 1929 Austin Ulster, a derivative of the Austin 7.
He planned to build the car and sell it but years passed and he didn't.
Then, he got married, what had to happen happened and he found himself being the father of a nice son.
When the kid was 13 years old, Les and his son decided to build the car using the kit that have been rusting in the garage of their house.
They built the car together and in the process learned quite a bit about mechanics.
The boy convinced Les to put the car to race, instead of selling it, and that was a good idea...
... because it was beautiful
They also build a simple, figure-eight track for father and son to learn to drive the car.
That made this particular kid a better driver because
if you cannot drive you cannot make roads and if you cannot make roads you cannot drive.
Reverse curves... how do they work? And, more important, which one is the fastest racing line?
When everything was ready, Les raced the car and although he wasn't the best driver, he had good results.
Two years passed, the kid was already 15 years old.
One day, Les became sick with gallstones and he was hospitalized.
With his father in the hospital, the son decided to enter the next race, because the car was already registered.
The car had no tachometer, so this kid painted the face of the speedometer with red lines at the speeds where he had to change gears.
This car has a very tricky three speed gearbox... and two lines painted with a brush by this smart kiddo
Incredibly, this kid won the race. Of course, he was forever hooked up on racing.

End of the story (or perhaps the beginning, I'm not sure).
Have a nice night, boys and girls, sweet dreams.
P.S. Well, J.A.W., I really like the M1B. As far as I know there is no M1B GT, although is understandable to mash them together, because if I'm not mistaken the M1GT was a street version of the M1B.
Badass M1B
Now, PlatinumZealot,
of course nobody here would ever search for Need for Speed in Pirate Bay. Not only is illegal, but is only 82 Mb and needs no installation, just unrar and play, after setting compatibility mode.
A friend who looks
exactly like me, only that he is not me (and he already left the forum and it's not possible to find him), did that and he told me.
He looks exactly like me but he's evil
