when you spend ages getting the boot open, test it, put al the parts back, shut it and... jammed again!!

When it takes 3 guys just to get the gearbox out!!

when you keep popping boost hoses,

nothing beats the feeling of pulling up next too r32's, focus st's ect and at the next set of lights waiting for them to catch you.. and they always seem to have to "pick something up" till the light go green again, and always seem to be taking the next turning
