The best bit about Pete is his inability to give up. He ALWAYS has to have the last word.
One or two posts...funny. A thousand posts..... getting on the verge nutty.
Twenty thousand posts, all containing the same clap trap....... priceless!

Well I was an idiot but you live and learn, there are so many what ifs involved when you look back.

The good news is the car will be back up by jan 20th and I have used this as a reason to perform some more upgrades to get this car in to the low 9 sec bracket and maybe lower wont rest till we see the 8's and then we wont rest till ? the quest for speed never ends it is a drug.

Ive been talking with the Rigoli boys so now Ive tunnel vision.

just read through 4 pages and realised that nearly 3 pages were dedicated to name calling, pointless off topic comments and unrelated observations.

This kind of stuff tends to happen a lot more in NSR etc, didnt expect to see it in General though

I am more interested in how the hell andy managed to wing a mapping session all the way to st lucia..jammy git.

* checks to see if local jobcentre has mapping jobs available *

****e luck tbh, I dont think the towing or driving is at issue here. If you have ever been to any of these islands, they alll drive like nutters (except those who make malibu alledegly )

Its been established the car was being towed, that the steering lock was on so how much control would the scoob passengers actually have ? AndyF has stated he was a passenger so why talk about anything but whats going to happen next.

****-Flap the very fact you chose to say "There could have been kids in that ditch" made people think hold on, his daughter crashed into a ditch. There could have well been kids in there, she could have been drving like a **** for al we know. The very fact you have ignored the comments pretty much says she was, shame on you for spending so much time on here you couldn't even teach your Daughter how to drive like a decent human being.
Next time you criticize anyone's driving i will be there to remind you of how wreckless your Daughter has been in the past. Does she have a pony-tail btw ?

AndyF - You seem like an intelligent bloke with a good knowledge of the workings of an Impreza, and i applaud the work you do. I'm suprised you even bother to share you experiences on here when trolls like ****-flap are lurking round every corner.
Believe it or not, you're the daft one for actually 'biting'!

2 things.

The speedo look to be in KM/H so that would be 30 mph.

In St Lucia, they all drive like that, it doesn't make it right, but may give you some understanding. I have before been driving across the Island when I was passed by a van [public bus] full of people whilst going around a bend. This is an exceptable way to go about things.

Gutted, felt painful watching the clip knowing what was going to happen . Fingers crossed it'll be back on the road soon and quicker than ever!

As for the driving, to many ppl are applying UK driving standards to a different country with completely different standards of driving, roads and road use .

That vid is the funniest thing I have seen in weeks

I like the guys comment at the end...'we have had a reeaal baad accident...'

a bit like the lilt or malibu advert where the guy on the pushbike finds himself behind a bus, and declares the scene as
'ooh no, it's toootal gridlack maan'



ps, the driver of the land rover was driving like a *****
