Rebel, dont encourage such loutish behaviour like doing burnouts OR donuts. Let Merv run the thing in first !

Awww Rob, you're right, It was a bit adventurous of me to ask for a burnout given Merv is running a FORD.

That sort of comment does not even deserve the dignity of a reply, especially from those using a product that comes from a bankrupt company! Some people need video evidence rather than relying on faith.....

Well done Merv.

Great looking car, and a job well done....
We will be able to form our very own "small" Grey Cobra Club.

It will be great to see it roll up to the breakfast meetings in the not too distant future.

I love that comment above about the bankrupt company....

ARRRRGGHH !!

This, while I'm in the middle of forking over more than I paid for my first house for just an engine from the very same company.

Cheers,

Warren.

Thanks Warren. Geez your first house must have been expensive! Grey Cobras - a small but distinguished group. Let's all pray that GM makes it thru the next few weeks without declaring...

Try this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWun0JXU0TE

It has travelled a bit further than is shown here!!! A real buzz all round - even my son was impressed (he is hard to impress).

Great work Merv (and Sharon)

It's posts like this and registration stories that give us "newbies" hope.

Congratulations, Dennis
