Phil K 0 Posted May 24, 2006 I can testify to this. We were 3 abreast in a ton 30 rolling roadblock, That Ruby is a monster. From hammer down at 60 or so to about 130 there wasn't much in it. managed to get some spoiler up action on a B road.... :wink: Not that it's been thrashed at all ;) I'll shut up now... congrats on the purchase of a fine valver Mr Jim 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil K 0 Posted May 24, 2006 anywho, you can't talk Phil, I've seen you drive :wink: Never said I was perfect - I live by the principle that a car should be driven... there's no harm in opening it up once in a while and giving it beans :D We all know you love your C and wouldn't do anything that'd be detrimental to its/her health ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StuartFZR400 0 Posted May 26, 2006 Have you been to see scarlets C yet Jim? Are you looking at any others too? Let me know when you get it. ps - how can you trust that any C hasn't been ragged unless its had one careful owner you trust; quite; just listen and use your noggin. Good luck Come back to the dark side :twisted: We have cookies! And PLOPP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted May 26, 2006 Seeing it Sunday mate! And still not seen you pootling around in Kenilworth yet! Will be extra vigilant once I get a C again! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StuartFZR400 0 Posted May 26, 2006 If you get a Red C, I wont be able to miss you. Just there are so many black Golfs in my road its silly. You wont have seen me recently as I've been getting sunburn in France watching the French MotoGP. Im back again so keep an eye out. Do you have a motor to use at the moment? Still havnt seen THE silver KA, although there are a few of those too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
