Re: Hot Rodding The H.A.M.B.

Re: Hot Rodding The H.A.M.B.
No fenders, louvers, loud nasty exhaust note ... on-topic enough for me.

Re: Hot Rodding The H.A.M.B.
I was lucky enough to be standing in front of that Bugatti at the time. As Blake has said, the sound on the video is NOTHING like how it sounded. It was awesome.
Roots blown 1.9 litre straight 8. Good luck with the upgrade Ryan. You're not allowed to "hot rod" websites over here. The cops are right onto it.

Re: Hot Rodding The H.A.M.B.

 Anybody had any problems with the new H.A.M.B.? My search function doesn't work and my uploaded albums are empty...
