Posts made past 02:30PM 12/30/24 won't be on the new site!

We are in the final stages of resolving the issues with the forums move to the new location. After talking with tech support, the only solution was to send him a copy of all the images. This will take time - but we know the fix SO it's only a matter of time now.

Thanks again for your patience,

    Re: off topic, but...

    Mr. Kahuna,

    I'd like to see you at the races, but my budget doesn't allow me to travel..I'd get a new(er) car someday and brake the mach 0.125 someday with an automobile.
    My small Renault Twingo possibly thinks I am too heavy with my over .1 tons ( metric ) weight. The manufacturer promises 151 km/h top speed for my vehicle. I never reached 140 km/h before..maybe there once was 138 km/h in a minor slope. I think my "tweaking" was succesful. Then again the car is 10 years old. The meter shows usually 105 km/h when the actual speed by radar in only 100 km/h. Should I sue the firm ? : )

    Which one of these "3 modifications" made my "racer" go 5 km/h faster than normally ( previously ) or which had most affect on it ?
    I was speeding I know...but circumstances were safe.

    Re: off topic, but...

    Yeah Matt !

    I drove a white Vette in Rovaniemi for a while. A friend of mine from Van Nuys has imported 150 of those. Fuel is over 5 $ a gallon in Finland so the V-8:s are more for collectors than for serious shopping in small towns around here.
    I wouldn't mind having a Mustang or a Vette. I wonder what is the fuel consumpion of that MB SLK 230.

    Later !
