Was it at Donny at all? I saw it last night heading North on the M1.

Was pretty nice............for a saxo It was also VERY loud, had two massive exhausts and could hear it about 100metres away!! Must drive the owner nuts, i know it would/did me!

Reg-plate definitely rings a bell, think it was over near the main Ripspeed tent (Johnny, Redline photographer (who we were wandering around chatting with for the last hour of today), did a photo-shoot with a girl in a pink lycra-bodysuit over there, and I remember noticing that reg-plate there, I think)...

If it was the one from GX then I seen it before down the road where snowy works... It's got a transplanted VTS lump in it and the paint is fucking amazing. It's like no flip paint I have seen before!!!

Cos it doesn't change colour when the viewing angle changes, it changes when the light source changes. Very hard to describe, but fuck me, it is one amazing paint job. Done by Dawsons bodyshop

Yeh it seemed to be lots of colours all blended in. No flip as such.

"Cos it doesn't change colour when the viewing angle changes, it changes when the light source changes"

Hmm think you need to think about that...If you are looking at a car side on and then look at it from the front 3/4 angle you are changing the 'viewing angle' but by the laws of light the angle of the light hitting the panel changes as well.

"it changes when the light source changes" That is exactly how flips work its to do with the way the light if reflecting off the panel, which of course changes depending on the angle you look at it.

The paint of Jobsons is just a version of the rage paint

Hence the reason why I said it was very difficult to describe. Belive me, I know about flip paints. I did a lot of research into them before getting my car painted... It is one amazing paint job though, even if it is just a version of Rage paint, I have never seen anything like it, ever!

That car is seriously loud! The exhausts must do the guys head in.
