    What is up with that offensively noisy one that you have got already!! My ear drums are only now returning to normal after following you all the way to Le Mans!

    hello Jim,

    its getting the original Tubi back on. i've always missed it. Its louder than that Larini, but sounds much smoother somehow. Hope you enjoyed Le mans - good laugh wasnt it! Cant believe we were in the bloody woods at 2 in the morning watching the cars on the Mulsanne. Still got scratchs from that

    Too true - Ferraris too, I mean, we're still trying to figure out what Steve does for a living ;) :D

    I've lost track over the last few weeks with so many people looking for 348s... did you get sorted in the end Sy or are you still looking?

    Mine is currently in R&D Automotive in Manchester getting all it's levels and wotnots checked over before it goes to Spain. Only 3 weeks to go! :D

    Do you know what realy cool about the UK forum, there is hardly the racisum that is on some of the US forums:). Another thing is that UK members dont jump on the band waggon and put a check on racisum before it snow balls. Dude should take that **** to the F.chat politics and religion forum, he would get on fine there.
