That car is so satisfyingly loose. I love every Stratos.

I think I want to build one just to hang out in Biella with the others.

E: The Roadkill video, at least, is very, very good though it could've been easily been much longer. I've heard before that they were going to build cars for each other, but somehow I thought they'd do it in the other's style, so MCM would try to build a muscle car for Roadkill, and Roadkill would try to turbo some Japanese shitbox. Still, it was great a sit is.

what a fun pair of episodes. I greatly enjoyed ( but was totally unsurprised by ) the contrast of how each show approached their car.

MCM: "Let's make a ridiculous car and do the best we can with limited time and money."
Roadkill: "Let's cobble together a bunch of rusty old poo poo and thrash on it until something breaks."

Which pretty much is the core of each show so it was a wonderful example of what you get. The SubarUte was tho pretty epic

Yep, loved the ute but that engine was just insane. I'm hoping that the trip will encourage MCM to try some things outside the usual "upgrade injectors, add a haltech, and maybe a bigger turbo" and have a go at some other things.

For the best of both worlds please see below.

It had lapbelts at least, I think the MCM guys were too young/sheltered to know to look for them at the start but you can see they have them on during the autocross.

Maybe they could add a supercharger to a MkIII Mini or drop a H6 turbo with STI driveline and do a full repaint and interior on a Liberty, or they could take a S15 and turn it into a V8 Mad Max inspired crate or they could build a sleeper from a stock Beetle or a DIY show car? I'd love to see them do that!

I don't think 38 and 41 are too young to know where seatbelts are. :v:

I'd guess maybe Australia required 3 point belts a lot sooner than the US?

I thought Marty was a lot younger too, I figured late 20s or early 30s. I already knew Moog was somewhere around my own age.

I'm having a hard time digging up Finnegan and Freiburger's ages, I wanna say they have a couple of years on the MCM guys?

They appear to be 41 and 49, respectively.
