    ok I'll take the bait .. how the hell can anyone twist this story around?

    Make-A-Wish Foundation is an international non profit organisation existing solely for the purpose of granting birthday wishes for terminally (i.e. dying) children. One young man has requested a simple ride in an exotic sportscar, saying that Ferrari's are his favourite.

    Ferrari, Lambourghini, Maserati & Porsche owners have thus decided to come together not just to give him a ride, but to personally escort him, at legal speed limit, to his birthday party.

    So how, please tell me can anyone (even STOMP) twist that story around?? I am confused.

    Thanks Jon and Daniel for their kind compliments.
    The Italian livery over matt black on the wing mirror was my brother Melvin's idea.;)

    Hmm,if you fit a Larini clubsport into a LP560-4,the sound seems to lag or is it just me?it's like it takes awhile before the pipe channels the airflow outwards and the sound is rather soft on the 3000rpm onwards.Guide me please.

    small point but remember to check there is access for the tow anchor point /hook. when i tried to tow my testa (which has 512m lower spoiler) to my horror i discovered the new spoiler had no hole to access the towing point. had to drive the car up a 45degree incline of the tow truck gingerly. nearly burnt my clutch when they told me to stop halfway then carry on up the ramp. not sure if that is even possible if car is f1 shift .worse if car cannot drive at all .

    i know its a good deed and a very nice gesture on the owners' part.
    what i am saying is that a normal pic/video can be taken but somehow it gets twisted into something completely not true on stomp. somehow this site always manages to sensationalize things :(

    here's a perfect example of it.

    http://singaporeseen.stomp.com.sg/stomp/3552/4136/280718

    the original video can be seen here:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QJ9c2wwvgM

    weren't they just moving off from a side road and look @ the title and comments being made after that. maybe they're just revving and moving off that's it, nothing to warrant the title of racing in the CBD.

    Good point but no worries, the Scuderia and the F430 have all the same structure and mounting and towing points. The holes for the tow hooks are located in the grille as can be seen in the picture below taken by another forum member.

    cute.

    i think the trouble is that there are a few people here on f-chat (posters and/or lurkers) who are stomp-ers or have friends who are stomp-ers. we have unfortunately found that out the hard way so as a result, we are unlikely to make too much info public. it's not a question of not doing anything wrong, more that we don't need or want the unnecessary publicity.

    Because it's a cesspool of stupidity for idiots to hang out with other idiots, think of it as stupidchat.com.

    Edit: As long as you don't criticize the government ;)

    Woah check out the coolest car lift ever! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sm1IfqVofNA

    Does anyone here use car lifts? Can you share if they are easy to use and how much they cost? My house ran out of space ages ago and the cars always get parked outside.
