    The only person who needs to be upset in that video is the driver of the Nova (I think it was a Nova).

    I mean come on. Its a Nova for Christs sake.

    Right...If i spent 100+ grand on a super car to be beaten by some kids drag car I would not be happy. Regardless of if it is a nova or not. Fair play for him creating a quick car!

    Bollocks.

    You don't buy a Ferrari because "itz wel qucik up da kwater mile ennit." For the money that Ferrari cost the bloke could have made the fastest Nova on the planet. But he didn't. He, unlike people who drive Nova's, has somewhat more class than your average Chav in a Nova.

    Fast Nova's have been done and done and done and done and done and done and done. They are ****, always have been and always will be.

    Basically what your saying applies to every sleeper. Just because it has been done, doesnt mean it's not individual, and automatically makes it a chav mobile.

    Correct me if i'm wrong but the word 'super car' tends to mean something is generally quick!

    I rest my case

    No, you are twisting what I said.

    Take Gregs car for instance. Very very fast Punto. Upsets a lot of vastly more expensive cars. Chav mobile? I don't think so.

    C20LET Nova? Yes, blatent Chav wagon.

    Remember the orange Clio with some swanky fast engine in it? Looked like a right shitter? Not a Chav wagon.

    Not all sleepers are Chav mobiles. Just Nova's. Well mainly Nova's.

    If I had the money for a Ferrari, I wouldn't piss it down the drain on a Nova I'd buy a Ferrari.

    LMAO what you saying is in your opinion though!

    In your opinion Nova's are chav wagon's, fine!

    In alot of peoples eyes, you have to give someone respect for building a quick car! People slate Hans, but I give him alot of respect into he had a project and went for it! Same goes to greg.

    The guy with the Ferrari clearly bought his car for speed, otherwise why is he taking it on a quarter mile! If I had one, I would appreciate what I have and wouldn’t rag it down a 1/4.

    It is an upset to the guy in light of this evidence!

    Prosecution rests!

    Lets agree to disagree!
