Default Gonna Spoil Handys Glory

Just had a text for HAndy and his prop has arrived, it is fitted and he's just backing the car out of the garage for a test spin round the cul-de-sac.

Hope he got the brakes sorted.....

Bet he's like "a dog with 2 *icks" at the minute.

Well Done Andy......AndyH

Rotten sod, you stole his thunder
He'll probably be a bit incoherent for a while anyways.

Couldn't stop myself Dave - dont worry though he'll be on just now either full of thunder / hell / fury - one of the three.

Well done to him......

"WHAT a feeling" .........

I,ve been out many many times as a passenger in Spuds car & Mark,s car but nothing could,ve prepared me for the feeling of a mixture of nerves / excitement & being honest the emotion of the first drive of MY Roadster .

what an amazing feeling, even tho I,ve only driven it 400yards & only got to use 1st & 2nd & reverse gear........it just felt soooooo right

no prob Spud creating this thread, I didn,t have my dongle with me so couldn,t log on.

goes without saying....." I,m on a high".

cheers
andy
