    Goodmorning FF. You did 8 hours of city driving in the BB? :) How was it driving that bad boy through the city? Are they heavy on the steering? :)

    not in one day mate... about 4 or 5 days!!

    No, steering is fine. Clutch is a bit heavy after a while in traffic.... but far from unmanageable, even for my chicken legs.

    You look like you have chicken legs! :)
    Could you ever put up with using a BB as a daily driver? Or too much of a pig in traffic?

    I could, but it's not for everyone.
    And a carb car will eventually complain at traffic use... not that mine has yet.. even with one of the 3 cooling fans out of action at the moment.

    lol...i just stumbled across it and it made me laugh.

    he was so smug about what lap time he'd get, i'm reliably informed, yet he got a slower lap time than Janne when she took my boxer around the track.

    ORRRRRRRRRR....maybe he just doesn't know how to tune a car properly and needs my help.

    so much for giving 355s a hard time with his boxer like he claimed!! lol lol
