Well I apologize for my lack of computer prowess at work. It seems that such a beautiful body was not allowed through our firewall filters.

And yet... the babe thread is.....

Well I could've gone down that route but most of my hair is migrating down my body so it'd be a case of throwing stones in the proverbial glass house....

How about - she can't be related her legs are too long  :o

Big set back to report :'( :'( :'( :'(  during testing of the new ignition system at the weekend, I blew a hole in the little 175s piston.
Going off what the nitrous tech had said about my ingnition being very weak, I thought it wise to jet up from the 172 that I last ran to 182 to be on the safe side if I was going to get a better burn.
It would seem that when I was putting it in that the jet cracked and caused a false reading of very rich. I came down to 180 and BOOM. :'( :'( :'( :'( at 3rd track.
