  1. man,thet pulsar is SICK!!! in all fairness though,if it had been a RS4 or a EVO the race would have been much closer because that viper struggled to put its power down at the start.
  2. why does he have that microphone on his helmet? Is he filming for the next season? if he is we should be in for a great new season
  3. mate I agree with you mostly,but i've seen people entering the road when they can clearly see a semi coming.that's what i mean by "cutting across". i have to drive a isuzu juston and a 350 tipper sometimes in my field of work(construction/hardware shop),and i can tell you it's pure hell dealing with the incosiderate buggers who cut across me,the process we have to go through to get the momentum going again. but these problems are not just limited to the road,the whole "me first" mentality needs to change :)
  4. um i'm not sure about this but the problem may be the throttle position sensor(TPS) not working,I have seen korean cars that had their TPS broken not shifting to second gear and not going above 20kmph,anyway the best thing is to consult an expert on this,don't go and replace the gear box immediately because some guy says so,it may be just a small problem.good luck.
  5. actually I have sympathy with the truck drivers,these guys have to drive 13 or more gear trucks in sri lanka,with all the idiots cutting across their way forcing them to stop.most of the semi trucks here are manual transmission so they have to go through a grueling routine of shifting gears to get up to normal speed,just think of having to shift your car 10 or more times everytime a three wheeler cuts across your way.,then you'll have some idea what these guys go through. I never cut across a semi truck as a principle,even if they are a long way off,I stay till they go past,because if you fail to make the turn they can't stop like other cars,and if they do brake hard they run the risk of slinging the container out of control like in the movies. here's a video of shifting in a 18 speed truck- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sM-kcFxsyCk
  6. I think No.14 should be applied to everyone. I can tell from personal experience that it's not a good feeling when some hairy cop gropes around your no-no area.
  7. Glad he's ok,what will we do if we lose our beloved jezza.
  8. yeah GFX,KRK sucks,I once went there recently and the guy there didn't know what the hell he was talking about. samare also worked with ranjith at wow's berfore he broke away and started nilakto. hey, does any of these guys have paint booths,i only know nilakto doesn't have one. btw-does ranjith still have that autozam? cheers.
  9. I can personally vouch for samare of nilakto,that guy did the bodykit on my sol,efini and crx,prices are average.and ranjith is o.k,he did some work on mine when samere and he was working together. the main thing to watch out with these guys is the finishing date,don't believe the date they say ur car will be finished.double it to be safe.
  10. Very true and it's quite ironic that the government media which kindly kept us updated 24/7 on the oil prices when it was going up with a special ticker on their screen havent heard the news of it going down again
  11. It's at the fair organized tommorow (12th) by St.joseph's college,col.10. anybody can come.
  12. There have been several incidents like that here,not sure about fatalities. BTW-hey Ripper,mate, what's the ready mix Carrier story?
  13. can't see the links mate hmm.. I thought that was his v12 before it went through cosmetic upgrades testing in chiba,japan anyway this one is definately smokey's monster - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tq3nYCcsEnI
  14. why does this happen? is it because of not putting the locks on or taking a sharp turn or something else?
  15. me likes it. I have always liked pug's.I think the new 407 is one of the best looking cars on the roads today. How the hell did they achieve those emission levels with that kind of performence?even for a hybrid..... amazing.
  16. ha ha I live in the kingdom of the great (fu)King Dutugamunu Silva. The hunupitiya road is very good thanks to the late sripathi,the oil refinery road is the best,just go past the check point then on it's 3 miles of pure heaven.but if you really wanna enjoy, the puttlam-chilaw road is the best, I sometimes go alone and stay at a cheap hotel for the weekend and blast the Thunderace during the wee hours,i've seen some high performence cars doing the same including aravinda's ferrari. I'm coming deffa to the walk,how will i know ya?
  17. I don't know about your particular model but usually when the battery light blinks it means the battery is not charging,I suggest having someone check the alternator.if the alternator is working it's probably something wrong with the wiring system.
  18. I know what ya mean,That's why i don't go to colombo in mine(a YZF......R).Colombo cops are not stupid as they look.they identified it instantly,I tried sweet talking but nothing doing,so I let one peacock do the talking instead these days i stick to the road past the sapugaskanda oil refinery,the new hunupitiya road to wattala or the chilaw-puttlam highway on a sunday morning.that's it.
  19. stock lambo murcielagos have only 600+ bhp's,supras if modified can reach up to 1300 Bhp so its not suprising that lambo got its as* kicked.still awesome though. have you guys seen smokey Nagatas supra doing a 1/4 mile,it looks like its gonna take off at the start. here's the vid-
  20. I think this is the work of designer Chris Bangle,the last few cars he designed are not very pretty either except the Z4,but BMW keeps sticking with him.
  21. I agree,it depends on the kind of work that has to be done.
  22. he is good. done some of ours and some friends,expensive
  23. FERRARI all the way. porches may be tecnical marvels but most of their cars look like they are trying to take a bog without a toilet seat. I wouldn't say no to a carrera GT though.
  24. typical lankan style,don't know how to use something even if given for free,now beware of identity theft machan,there maybe guys posing as AL members,in case somebody comes in as HelRazor,if that guy is not the most handsome dude you've ever seen,tell him to go to hell.
