OK explanation for my outburst- I sent a PM to this guy & said I dont know you, have & never will meet you & yet since day one on here he has attacked what I do or say, I asked that he would lay off my threads & I would his but hes not done that. I would love this loudmouth to go away a try to build a car to compete with mine Topspeed. I have already talked about building a 1000bhp GT42RS engine off the gas similar to the 960bhp greek one already on Autronic, this guy might just be the urge I need to do just that.
I except I was way over the top & will edit.

how the fuck can a simple thread turn into an arguement.

everyone is going to have different answers whether it be a mini or a mclaren.
if rod says his saph because of what it's achieved then thats up to him.

anyway mines is my escos.

My old S1 (Carlo's car) that car got more attention whilst on the road than any other i've had and the drive for a 23 year old was near perfect.

Was'nt it a 3dr that started all this top speed malarky all those years ago, a black one on standard rims in performance ford mag iirc?? Would be nice to see one back at the front again...end of the day, if some one's pockets are deep enough, the current record can be easily beaten.

There is so much bad blood on this board at the moment that even mates are starting to fall out. Pretty pathetic.

yes i would like graham's side of the story because you are lying if graham mistakenly blames me for it, then why did he speak to me at berkshire group meetings afterwards in a friendly way? also he used to come along with chip, and i would imagine that if chip thought that i had anything to do with it, he would not be my friend either

i really don't know what you think happened. i can't even remember all the details now. i just happened to be on the 'ring in the goonybus (that you think was a piece of shit because of the way that it looked, but the engine was immaculate and did not lose a drop of oil or water - ever). i came off and saw a kerfuffle around graham's car and you seemed to be interpreting between graham and the marshalls. i asked a few people what was going on in case i could help in any way, and they said that graham was being done for dropping fluid on the road that caused a bike to crash. there was something happening with people checking his car and his fluids etc and i left it at that as you were there translating, so my services that i could offer for that were not needed.

i then remember coming on here after the trip and you said something about it being my car that had dropped fluid, and i disagreed with you then about it (as i would because it was not true)

if you (and graham) had thought that my car had dropped the fluid and not his, why did you not say something about it in the 'ring car park? then the marshalls and the police could have inspected my vehicle as well as graham's. i assume that they must have had some evidence or witness accounts, otherwise they could not do anything you would not be much of a friend to graham if you did not defend him properly to the police if you had any evidence to the contrary.

as for bad language, i am far from uneducated. i know it's not your native language so i did not want you to miss any subtle point, so i am making my language towards you quite clear. you are a lying piece of shit as i know for a fact that my vehicle did not lose any fluid on the 'ring. it's not really my problem who's did so why would i know anything more about it?

you cannot just come on here from behind your keyboard in another country and accuse people of doing things that they did not do and get away with it.

i'm sorry that this thread has turned to shit, but you can blame escosracer for that. most of the threads that he posts on he seems to antogonise people for no reason as he seems to think he can bully people about because he's got a lot of money

Best cars ive driven are

* Peugeot 905 le man car



* My evo 4


* Plenty of Mclarens gtrs/f1s on the rd



These are both ex le man cars from 95 now converted to rd use


- Driven all 3 on rd and track
- Me reversing the long tail Mclaren
- Me looking chubby going out for a rd test

Driven other cars like zondas,F40'S & Porsche carrera gt but for me nothing comes close to a mac

Also love my dads new Mini cooper S

it's not time to stop until this is cleared up - one of us is telling the truth, and the other one is mistaken/lying. i know which it is. this is not the place though, as it has ruined the thread sadly for everyone

i'm off out now, so i' will be getting back to it later.

one final point for michael - it is not even my car that you are talking about. i just happened to be driving it when graham had his incident

Simple, its to make my old man jealous after him being a pilot of his own private twin engined plane for over 35 years! He still has a pop at me each time he gets his plane out! BTW he has a Cessna Crusader
