Aiming for a 250 squat by the end of 2012 Member 1989, 3168 posts SQ 240, BP 140, DL 270650.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | scruffmcbuff said: Have you ever tried entering your car in that fashion? I have, it ended badly. I suspect being a forum of powerlifters and strongmen not many here would have anyluck with that. I actually tried doing that once, it didn't look anything like it does on Dukes of Hazzard! | ||

Also im never really in that much of a hurry or have anywhere important enough to go for such a dramatic entrance | ||

I never worked out what the reasoning was for the Duke boys welding the doors shut so they had to get in through the windows, but it looked cool to me as a young lad lol Lol I thought exactly the same I'm guessing it like a stock car or something,but I heard a rumour (google) that cooter tried to repair the car but didn't have time to fix the doors properly....oh an honourable mention might riders kitt which turned out to be a dodge. The car in bullet Ford mustang beautiful in and out. | ||

 as crimson as my last victims underclothing..... Member 899, 11329 posts SQ 180, BP 132.5, DL 190502.5 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq | Welding the doors stiffens up the whole car. Makes the body more rigid most likely to handle the insane jumps they used to regularly pull off etc. Don't forget to honk the horn in mid air. | ||

KITT was a 3rd generation Pontiac Trans-Am. fantastic looking car but pretty crap performance in real life. the 5.0L version only produced 165bhp. compare that to a modern car and its shocking - Mitsubishi manage 440bhp out of a 2.0L engine with their special edition Evo X FQ-440. no replacement for displacement the yanks would say... wrong: it's called a "massive turbocharger" | ||

And does it have a 'super pursuit mode'. No on both counts. KITT wins. | ||

Turbos, porting and flowing etc obviously do give power. However is your standard vrx Subaru actually the same power as the rally version or just good marketing? You always hear dyno guys saying cars don't have the bhp claimed in the brochure. | ||
