Paradoxially, small drivers often take more risks than more powerful cars - Why would this be so? It's because if you "slow down" in a small car, it takes you forever to get back up to speed again, so there is a big disincentive to slow down, whereas in a more powerful car, it is not so much of an issue.. Or so some people believe. To see the proof - just look at the way a cyclist behaves - those that are riding a bicycle HATE to stop - because it takes a lot of effort to get going again (relatively speaking) - just apply that to underpowered cars. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing with his life and others.... maybe badly modded? i saw a couple of QQ with heavily mod, straight through exhaust. one even had a turbo on it... small car or not, 100km/hr is really nothing. in fact, i also drive a small car, 1.2 the only time when i don't feel safe is exceeding 160km.. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazybugger 1st Gear September 13, 2011 Share September 13, 2011 aiyah .. any car can do 100km/h++ ... even my 36 yr old 1.2L car can do it ... no need to be modded the limiting factor is the largeness of drivers nuts and/or the smallness of drivers brain 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol You never drive before then cannot have assumption that it is not stable mah... Anyway, cutting in/out traffic at 100km/hr is always dangerous regardless of what type of car. ;) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
