[@sukhdevr3489]

A Skyline GTR. Edit: I'm going to explain what I mean. I don't get why people call every Skyline a GTR, since the R35 is one that has the main name of GTR. The main name for these Skylines is Skyline, so just saying GTR (which I thought only the R35 should be referred to as) is like calling a Ford Mustang GT Ford GT (but there's a already a Ford GT so it doesn't make much sense).

[@ProSkye59]

@@giancarlolugo9586 not with those speakers

[@MrSupercar55]

I’m not surprised at that result. The Peugeot is really heavy with all those speakers and monitors and video game equipment, whereas the Frog-Eyed Sprite was already lightweight to begin with, and they then stripped it down to barebones. It’s all down to the age-old quandary of a heavy car with more horsepower versus a lighter car that doesn’t quite have as much horsepower. Some car manufacturers, such as Pagani when competing against Lamborghini, possess the necessary tools to make their car light enough to get away with not having as much horsepower.

[@N3onDr1v3]

Hydrolics too!

[@MilkDrinker218]

It’s a similar thing to the concept behind the Mustang. Ford was never known for having as much horsepower as a Dodge, but the Mustang was lighter, birthing the aptly named “Pony Car” category.

Interesting that James and Richard seem to have swapped views on this in the years since. Richard's favorite car is Oliver, while James is quite excited by the new Honda Civic Type R. In several Top Gear and Grand Tour challenges (well at least one I can think of), Richard and Jeremy got old classics while James called them stupid and got a modern hot hatch. With this challenge, I do wonder why the modern car did worse in turns than the old Austin-Heeley - had the young tuners not built the suspension for cornering well? Did all that money instead just go into the sound system, cosmetics, and gadgets? Maybe it really was nothing but a ricer.

[@fin3662]

precisely, they probably could've shaved 500+ lbs without all the technology, if they then stripped the car even further, it probably would've been like 1000lbs lighter in total, besides, it's a Peugeot, if they took the amount of money they spent putting useless gadgets in there, and spent it on a real car, they would smoke the healey and peugeot

[@jordanschofield9998]

Saddest thing is a few seconds before it shows them with a fire spitting R34 Skyline. How could you let these ricers own a R34 Skyline

[@xZothecula]

Jordan Schofield Because they spend their own money on what they want. That's how you could. Also, i hoped they riced the crap outta that R34

[@pbfloyd13]

Justin Phipps ?

[@Unkown214]

You said that car is ricey and yet that mercury cougar in you profile picture has after market wheels and I doubt you did anything under the hood.

[@pbfloyd13]

Justin Phipps That Cougar originally came with 16x6 on wheels and 205 series all season tires, I upgraded to 17x7.5 that are each 5lbs lighter, and 225 series summer tires. It is also lowered on h&r springs, has stoptech slotted rotors, and ebc yellow stuff pads. Around an autocross course it's more than a match for any similarly powered car.

[@LegoInr]

+pbfloyd13 Nah, that car in your profile pic doesn't look ricy.

[@IronMan3582]

It's undoubtedly true the that Peugot was way heavier than the Austin, but I wonder how much the fact it was front wheel drive played into it with under steer in the corners effected its time...that and it certainly wasn't a purpose built car for a hill climb either.

[@naehafarooq7974]

I like it

[@pedrosilvamusician]

It's not the weight. It was probably stock in terms of brakes and suspension. Also the tyres were probably not appropriate. I think it was just way too much

[@aloha_gamer7635]

rice vs sleeper😂

[@user-nt6ur4ef5r]

Nothing sleeper about that FrogEye, for if it were to be one, it'd certainly would put alot more gray hairs on the Ricer and the Old clubs alike

[@Mikeb1001]

+Kevin Rogers How many 306's have you seen with a 3.0 v6? That's right, none, because the engine is a mod in itself, it's a much bigger engine out of a 406 coupe

[@GECKOZFTW]

Mike Butt Sure they swapped the engine, but what's the point when they don't even make it produce more power? A 3.0 V6 is quite a heavy engine. The 2.0 I4 from the GTi-6 version of the 306 would have been the better choice. Almost as much power, with much less weight. And the I4 is more ripe for mods to the engine.

[@pedrosilvamusician]

@@GECKOZFTW but for the dude its a bigger number. He was saying his numbers like a schmuck to hammond like he was talking some impressive feats. Well, im sure he would be pleased to know that a Fiat Punto GT from 1995 can do almost the same for 1/16 of the price

My Grandfather has a story about the Sprite. Apparently one of his friends had one. They all made fun of him because it was tiny and not too fast. So he gets challenged to a race. My Grandfathers friend says "Ok, but I get to pick were we are racing!" And the Challenger accepts. He was then challenged to race in a dried out stream. My Grandfathers friend won through default.
