I used to hang out with some friends who were into cars. We never really modded them though - this is a more modern phenomenon. We did the furry dice and custom steering wheel and pedals though! There is so much more around now! We mainy used to go on long A road drives and enjoy the bends (without being reckless) and we often went carting or to Cinemas that were miles away.
I remember we were in my mates fiesta and a Capri thought he would race us. It was wet and the Capri driver lost it, crossed the central kerb and ended up pointing the wrong way. We stopped to see if they were ok. I think his pride was more hurt than anything else.
Oh those days when you were young and had all that disposable income!
