Please note that if you are wearing a seat belt, the driver doesnt even touch the airbag if it goes off. As i have been saying for ages.
Proof that they are only effective in frontal impacts where the seat belt is not working or fastened.

Open invitation to anyone with an uber hatch.
My car is as fresh as youll find. Only 3k on the new engine. Would be a fair comparrison, rather than these old battered williams' that people see and think they are all like that.
Trouble is non of the Trophy boys will go on a meet with a Williams. Ive asked before. Maybe they dont want to understand the reality of the Williams being 10 years old yet able to keep upo with their uber hatches.
I was glued to the back of Rory in Scotland in his 182 on some of the best...
Best hot hatch encompasses everything.
Build quality, speed, comfort, price, availability, exclusiveness.

The Williams produces 175Nm of torque
The 182 produces 200 Nm of torque
The Williams has 150 bhp
The 182 has 180 bhp
The Williams has 85% of peak torque available at 2500rpm
The 182 has 80 % of its torque available at 2500rpm
So the Williams produces 148.8 torque at 2500rpm...
The 182 will always have less low down grunt.
They made the f7r. It was a very good engine low down. They then made the f4r from it, and to get the jump in power they used a wilder cam. So you gain top end and lose bottom end.
Then the 182 was a further development whereby they used a...
