    I bought a cheap RWD sports car for $1500 then attempted to drive it to the Nurburgring. There wasn't many sports cars to choose from but i think i made the best choice but my friends disagreed. It was only later in the trip we saw disaster for the BMW's.

    04:40 thats the PPF Frame not setup properly Mat. And that causes the differential not to line up perfectly with the gearbox, which then lets vibrations through the bolts of the gearbox, making this noise :) not harmfull, just annoying...

    Mat, I'm a Canadian who greatly enjoys racing, automobiles, and other mechanical objects. I saw many hot rods, classic cars, and race cars. There was a man by the name of Carol Shelby, who was a Texan. He heard about a company in England that would soon need an engine in them because that four cylinder engine was coming in the end of its production. So he went to Chevrolet, which said to him that he wasn't going to be given engines from them. So he went Ford instead. They did send him engines. That first engine was 221 cubic inches, which was bored to the size of 260. That same engine was known as a small block. Why am I typing this to you? That was the first Cobra. Do you know what company it came from? It came from AC Cars over there in England. Did you know it was a secretary's car? Yes, it was. They continue building them. The reason I'm typing this is quite interesting. You should find a V8 engine to put it into that Miata. I know you'll be able to do that work.

    I suppose the loss at the end you tought us how gambling can go so 3 helpful things in one video,also i like how it proves you can still have fun for less, even with compared to a supercar abit less power. Tho saying that i had fun riding as a passenger in a 45 horsepower mini and driving a 60 horsepower fiesta which was abit rusty so was light and like a porche cost more for lightness because it needed repairing so would of been a fair amount to sort out.
