Somebody get me the soap.......Need to wash his mouth out. :lol:

If I had the skill and kahoonas, this would be the only 'fast' thing that would constantly keep me interested. If I could do this, I would become addicted and undoubtedly end up dead

You would only need a stray Moggy to run out and you would be brown bread. Madness....

That's exactly why I will never be more than a very average rider (at best) over there Pete. As soon as those thoughts enter your mind (and they do) you've lost any chance of improving your skill levels. The Irish mass start road races are on another level again. The Ulster GP , NW200, The Skerries etc are not races for the faint hearted!

I will stick to polishing my land yacht as they say :D

Morning Ali. Yeah, that looks like a great cruise! I'm a casual visitor on an American C body forum and there are still affordable cars there. A lot of the Americans comment on the number of cars that are going to Europe. We pay what's asked as they are seen as good value here and in other European countries and we don't haggle a $4000 car down much. That's why the cars are disappearing overseas.

I love the 'fusilage' C bodies like those on that cruise video

Cheers Steve :thumbright:

Good morning Steve and yes the big old C body are good comfortable cars (like my Fleetwood Cadillac used to be) and a very large presence on the road too.

The only problem is the garage size to put them in :(

Have a nice day :thumbright:
