These will be allowed but only in the context of these awards.

For those of you who don't know, this is the man who put superlows in my car. It took about nine hours to do the whole procedure as my fronts springs were evil, one-of-a-kind dirty bastards!! So Steven (Rmyers) definitely gets my vote for most helpful member. There is a couple of others but Steven didn't even rest and persisted until the job was completely done.

I was going to nominate you for this as well. The question you asked once : What happens if you don't stop at the end of the drag run? certinally qualifies you That one will stick for a while mate. Recently someone sent me a link to a video of what really does happen if you didnt stop. I think John has the link still perhaps he will post it :D
