This (http://www.badgerpackaging.com/heavymetal/) has surely got to be the finest mod I have ever seen.

Just took a while to filter over to us Britlanders I reckon, I spotted it in a PC magazine yesterday.

Tweaked!

Ive seen the guide to how he made it and that is one of the top mods of all time. The guy should partner with Nventiv and make a tranportable case with wheels so we wont have to break our backs when moving our prommies!

LOL, just imagine the costs involved though, it could be pricey crashing out of a "Prommi race". :D

Does it only go in straight lines ? I can't see how the tyres move a fraction with that bodywork in the way.

He claims 18bhp off a PSU and then 400+ lb foot of torque ( enough KW's to rip your arms off in Europe )

I think that's more than a Corvette.

Does that mean one of these could pull a Corvette backwards whilst doing a 3dmark run ?

This thing is INfreakinSANE. I saw a show about it on TV, the workmanship quality is just flawless. And the details like the car tach that shows CPU speed to scale??? Thats crazy. This is truly what you do just when you think you've done it all.

Great modding though

Nah, you just weren't around on the scene when this first cropped up about 2 yr ago (I think) so you'll have missed it... The magazines in the UK are the last to here about EVERYTHING...

Heavy metal and Project Orac are my favorite mods ever :) I can't wait to see G-gnome finish orac, to think I stayed up late last night just to wait for an update :D
