Whats the big deal? His choice! No great loss imo.

Will I miss the 200+mph being rubbed in others faces?

I think not!

Maybe nice in the real world but his internet persona sucked.

Bye Rod and best wishes.

I joined everyone in saying congratulations when Rod cracked 200mph, but as Andy R put it so well:

I'm not going to miss having the 'fastest Cossie' stuff rubbed in our faces...

You'll be missed Rod, it's a shame you've chosen to do this, but if you do come back try and be a bit more of a gracious winner will ya?

As said by Sib and Andy R, instead of leaving why not change your name back to Rod or Rod Tarry and post constructive advice based on your experiences. Stop all this MAD rubbish (not just rod) and tuner wars as surely the scooby, EVO, Skyline lot must piss themselves at this.

I said on the other post, when Martin had the record he held it in a dignified manner and that is why a lot of people respect his acheivements. Good Luck for your new Record attempt.

I actually think the majority of people standing up for him and not calling him every name under the sun ARE the people that have met him and know what he is like in person....
For a bloke that is retiring next year and still forking out loads to make sure his car doesnt go un-noticed and to ahieve what HE wants and what HE LOVES, i think that is amazing, i mean look at the amount of people not even reached their 40's and given up on ford's and gone to other cars...Rod is a genuine ford lover, unlike some

Hope to still see you at the meets Rod If you do ever decide to secretly join again, just give me a pm to let your little Tadley friend know your OK shame it's come to this

That may well be the case but seriously you treat the bloke like he is a god....Its a great achivement and well done but to constantly blow sunshine up the blokes ringpeice is a little ott.....

And as for the coment about him doing this for the love of the ford badge....Please it is only a fucking car......a ford at that....Fuck get out more.......

load of bollocks imo, Rod is about 60 years old, why let childish comments bother him
i don't see the point in closing your account, just makes you look silly when you come back
i think Rods a good fella, he does post some shite sometimes, not half as much as most people do on here,,,,



but at the end of the day, non tuv dyno, love him or hate him or MAD,

others talk the talk but so far he's the only one to break the 200 mph barrier




what if the dyno MAD use under reads compared to a TUV one

Seems a shame though, another poster thats been around on the scene for ages has gone!

Proper shame lot of the old skool people not here now Just goes to show how the attitude on here can go a bit far imo.

Agreed Rod wasnt 100% angil on here but so is most of people, but things go to far

Internet wise, 1st class cock.

I think i'd enjoy his company if he was paying me silly amounts of money for the last 10 years whilst letting me drive his rather fast car.

Silly man, who spends that amount, claims all that glory when realistically, MAD did all the work, they even got it over 200mph didn't they?
