Future Classics

#1 Post by JoeNorton » Fri Sep 12, 2014 11:03 am

What do you think will be the classics of tomorrow?

I've always thought the MK1 TT will be the next one to start climbing, any others?

Oh dear
Never play chess with a pigeon. It will knock all the pieces over, S*#t on the board and then strut around pretending it won.

These threads normally turn in to arguments fairly quickly as there is no definition of "classic" as there is for veteran or vintage and no two people have the same opinion.
As a general rule we have banned "what is a classic" or "is my car a classic" threads because of this.
Understeer: when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.

That bloke who made the balloon animals at Mandela's funeral, he's a classic. Beyond that it's all about how much yoghurt the dog eats, not the damage done to your carpets by the results of feeding [the yoghurt] to the poor doggie in the first place.
