Welcome
to boyracerguide.co.uk. This site attempts to explain the phenomena
known as "boy racing" to the general public. The boyracerguide.co.uk
crew think that the public should be better informed and have written this short
guide to give an overview of what and who "boy racers" are. We hope
you find it useful. If you have time, please send us feedback in the Talk
section and read what boy racers and the general public actually think of this
site. You can also check out some similar sites in the Links
section. It also may be useful to read the About page
and Disclaimer.

The Guide
Announcement |
Those of you that come here often will know that we don't update the site too much. Or at all, really. That's because we've moved on. The site will remain online as a reference for those who want to know more about the crazy world of boy racers, but it won't be updated and we won't be checking our email.
It was full of spam anyway :)
Thank you for your support, or for your funny-but-a-bit-sad attempts to insult us (depending on which category you fit into). It was a blast.

12/05/07 - This is it |
I'm going to give up the pretence of updating this site now. Thankyou all, it's been a laugh.

- Carismatic Fuel |
The
Boyracerguide.co.uk Crew were invited by Fuel's Richie Warren to the website
launch party of Fuel
and Carisma
in Colchester last Saturday. Needless to say we're all suffering the effects
of it this week, but damn was it a good party. It was held in Carisma's,
uh, garage or whatever you call it, and was a boy racer's wet dream. Nice
cars (none of your superglue, polyfiller and plastic brigade here), bangin'
toons, topless women and a couple of cars that could make your head explode.
Crazy stuff.
Crazy. We'll be running a feature on it soon so watch this space ;)

- I've back-ended it |
My
you've all been busy with the email. So busy that I had to seriously consider
getting my arse in gear and program a content management system for Talk
entries so I don't need to edit HTML whenever I want to update. So it's
now done, and serving Talk entries, and you shouldn't even notice the
difference. I'll be adding more features as time goes on.
Anyway there's
several new pages of your emails up now. Enjoy.

08/01/04 - The Return of the Bling |
Happy New Year everyone.
Some of you have taken my last news post a little too seriously. Yes I have a new job. No, it's not in Basingstoke and no, it's not at Burger King. No, even if I did work at Burger King I wouldn't be spitting into people's burgers, and yes if I did I would almost certainly be disciplined by Burger King. Jeez people, don't you recognise a joke when you see one?
Anyway I've done a quick maintainence update on The Guide. Look out for a super-duper new version, with piccys and stuff coming in the next month or so. No, I really mean it this time :)
And stop emailling me so much if you're just going to say the same old tired "I hate you cos your a nob who hates my car" - from five emails a week I'm now getting close to two a day. It's hard to think of amusing put-downs for all of them...

Happy
December everyone. Sorry about the lack of updates (especially that complete
Guide overhaul I keep going on about) but I've been busy at my new job.
Yes, I am that new Dave in the Burger King in Basingstoke. I get to spit
into boy racer's burgers. Bonus.
Anyway some
more morons have been emailling us, and so I've dutifully filled two
talk sections with their inane rantings. Of course
there is *some* praise there too, but we can't all be two alloys short
of a full set can we :)
Oh and I
was lying about the Burger King thing. No, really.

- Roll with my crew |
Yeah,
some more flames in Talk which means I had to make another
page. Good stuff though. I also tweaked some stuff in The
Guide, and put a bit about those elusive "other" Crew Members
in About. Enjoy.
- Dave |

- Putting my point across |
I
was always amazed at how everyone who flamed me didn't email back after
I replied to them. I guess I spoke too soon :) Some more stuff in Talk,
and a link in, uh, Links.

- Not As Funny As The Guy Who Made It? |
Couple
more flames and stuff in Talk. Think I'm gonna
keep this a maintainence update. Keep em coming ;)

- Skoda Ad |
Got
something a little different through email - an ad for boy racers to star
in a Skoda commercial. Interesting slant they're taking on the whole car
ownership thing - getting barry boys to dump their novas for skodas?
- Dave |

11/09/03
- Morris Minor |
A
few minor updates - a couple more emails in Talk,
a couple of tweaks of the Guide. This major one
we keep muttering on about will probably be a while yet. Maybe we'll just
tweak the backend scripts instead.
Oh we have
extended the guide to include more differences
between car modifiers and boy racers. Maybe that will shut up the
more literate whingers among you ;) Just kidding - we like emails, keep
sending em in.

- Is it a yacht? |
Been
talking to Russ from Is
It A Boat? so here's a shout out to the Is It A Boat crew. Go
visit their site. Well, after you've looked around this one :P
Some relatively
minor changes - a couple more entries in The Guide,
About section tweaked. That major update is coming
- promise - it's just that we're bogged down with our "proper"
jobs here at Boyracerguide.co.uk. Yes, the ones stacking shelves at Tesco.
Jeez.

- White Boy With A Feature |
Some
more stuff in Talk, and a couple new
links. Gonna have a semi-major Guide update next time - watch this
space.

Woo!
Some dumb emails! Check em out in Talk.
- Dave |

07/08/03
- Odds and Sods |
Couple
new letters in Talk. Also tweaked the guide again,
mainly spelling and grammar and whatnot.
Can someone
more dumb email in? It's no fun when our hate mail is all congratulatory
;)

26/07/03
- Guide Updated |
Added
a small Glossary to the Guide, and a
couple of extra bits including stuff on washer jet neons and speed cameras.
Also a new
link - Sniff Petrol - it's a
great site.
Someone
email in, we're getting bored :P

14/07/03

completed a total overhaul of the Guide, shoved in a new design and expanded
the whole site. Pukka!
Also some
new stuff in "talk"

- Dave |

09/06/03
- Feedback |
Some
of you have been (finally) emailling us, so I can update the "talk"
section.
The guide
is in the process of a complete overhaul and redesign so please check
back occasionally to see if I've got round to it.
