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 ? : )

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,
The Admins

Which one of these "3 modifications" made my "racer" go 5 km/h faster than normally ( previously ) or which had most affect on it ?

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 !
