A thread to discuss about Econo-Pocket-Rockets.

>What is a "Hot Hatch"?
A Hot Hatch is a manufacturer produced, performance oriented variant of a standard hatchback, designed for improved handling, increased top speed, acceleration and generally enhance the driving experience.

>Are all Hot Hatches FWD?
No. Whilst most Hot Hatches are FWD, some are AWD or even RWD.

>Isn't FWD shit?
No. Just because you can't get the arse out by stamping on the accelerator doesn't mean you can't have fun.

>Aren't Hot Hatches just for Europoors?
No; with the launch of the Fiesta and Focus ST in the US, it seems like the Hot Hatch is beginning to take off on the other side of the Atlantic, but Europoors definitely have more choice.

>Is the Fiesta ST actually good?
The Fiesta ST is one of the best small hot hatches on offer at the minute; so yeah they're pretty good.

It's pretty fun to drive.

I do dislike that there's no seat memory. Whenever someone else drives it, I have to fuck around until I get it back the way I like it.

Backroad paved "highways" in the wet.

Speed limit 55 with 15mph turns due to town and range. It gets pretty hektik.

Towels (even microfiber) leave streaks without lubrication. Drying a car with a dry towel is the work of Satan (if he were real and a bad guy). You'll probably be told to do it to every car though.

Start at the top, go down.

It's all about the details.

Thoughts on these wheels? They're 1500 bucks shipped from japan.

1500 each?

They look kind of niggish, not worth it even if they are 1500 for a full set.

What does /o/ think of kit-cars? Worthless timesinks, or the gateway to true /o/tism?
31 posts and 13 images submitted.
>>
probably a ton of fun if you have the money and time to invest in them
>>
Very few actually get finished
Like most kits from any hobby, they are never as straightforward as they claim to be and most likely will require fabrication/modification
Resale is a pain, only worth it if you will hold on to it forever

I'm sure the brands that have been around like Superformance and Caterham make good kits. It's just so cheap to get a random shell of an already registered street car that a kit car doesn't appeal to me, you can get a great looking 60s American car and turn it into anything you want with whats out there these days.

it's like any kit, half the fun is the assembly. don't like assembling stuff?
