Randy,

Didn't you mention before some "damage" you did to the drivers seat when you went 135 in the SVX?

Yes, you're paying too close attention. HAHAHAHA! The damage occurred at the split second I hit 135 -- I remembered I was on T-rated tires and I immediately put a crease in my driver's side leather when my butt puckered -- AND, I backed off the throttle.

Randy i (as opposed to Randy ii)

When you hit 135, did you leave zebra stripes on your seat and were the furry dice dancing?

PS: I'm assuming that you'll be using the zebra mouse pad to answer this post. Have you worn the "Sunday go to Meeting" tie ?

I believe those are commonly known as skidmarks (my butt don't have ABS), and, yes, I've been using the Zebra mouse pad since my first day back at work after the 10th Anniversary meet. Haven't had a chance to wear the tie, yet.

Oh, that was PFD (Pre- Fuzzy Dice )

If I even need a second car (for shopping and the like) I would have to go for a Noble M12 GTO

A bit too, uh, loud for my tastes. I will NOT get another car until I can but my Ferarri 360 Spider. Or, a Hummer H3 .

Also rated by the BBC as the best handling car on the road. Meant to be drivable too, so OK for the shopping trips.

Question Noble

@Andy

I haven't heard of that car. Is it British?
Are there only right hand drive nobles or also left hand?

They sure do, but you need to get your money down quickly. About a 9 month wait at the moment.

Check out 'media and links' on their website. some interesting bits & pieces.

2nd car

i'm actually looking to sell my svx now. college student without much money. car is running great, just worried something horrible will go wrong, and with parts costing as much as they do, i can't afford it.
but, if i had the money, i'd buy a new Nissan Skyline, and boost it up to 900 horses.
