What a load of tripe, so far i've learned if you drive a car with no oil in it the engine will seize and Tiff is trying to get a Civic Type R to take off.

How long did the engine last though?

How many non-specifically distanced laps?

You can't drive under a lorry, they have bars to stop you doing it.

My old neighbour drove under a lorry once. Wrote his Escort off on the motorway. Never had the bars.

I was coming home over the forth road bridge the other day and there were 5 lorries waiting to be escorted across..

They were about double the length of a normal hgv with nothing attol between the axles.. You could easily have driven under them without doing any damage because the load was so high..
