i just went to this site that was put out by the victoria government and they reckon that my 1981 RA60 was safer than my 1984 MA61. Wat does everyone else reckon i know that there is fibreglass in the body, but surely the MA61 would be safer??

structurally they're almost identical, except the ma61 has LSD, disc brakes all round, bigger tyres and a longer nose. I would've thought all those things would make it safe, but that's just me.

Well, popup headlights are kinda good at shredding pedestrians. Speaking of which, I finally got my MR2 unbent so I can close the headlights... it looks almost fixed now, apart from one panel not matching (getting paint tomorrow ).
The MA70 received five stars for aggression in the 'damage to the other car' category of the RAC's safety tests... if you get in its way, teh tank is coming through you!
