tut tut, the 55 is a V8 and the V12 is either a NA 600 or twin turbo 65, old shape anyway

Guess what I drove the car home too!! I also went another few times, produced a Nurburgring DVD and ended up being one of the fastest things there. Well very slight exaggeration maybe

I was taken on by an RAF Tornado in Glencoe two weeks ago. I opened the Scooby up but that bitching Tornado just kicked in its afterburners and left me for dead. It also left me for deaf as i had the windows open

I now have the car booked in for a re-map so that hopefully next time i can gain the upper hand

People i kid you not ,and as it happens i had my video camera mounted on the screen which captured the sequence of events.

On occasions my girlfriend follows me to my flat from her Mum's house, she normally sits glued to my bumper so once (and i'm too scared to do it a second time!!) I floored it away from her and popped a flame.......NEVER again, didn't realise she new so many rude words

So now I let her overtake in her 1.3 Ka to the amusement of my mates

Got blown away from a really innocent looking mk2 Astra GTE, I used to have one so didn't think much of it until it shot past me like I was going the opposite way
