Congrats on the title upgrade BTW.
Ha! Only just noticed that! The job title is a couple of years old but I had no idea they were going to change it from teaboy, or whatever it used to be.

scratchchin It must be pay rise time.

Which one - #1, #2 or the yet-to-be-announced #3?

2. Nice bloke actually, and highly entertaining. Gave me a few tips on how to squeeze a few seconds out of the TG test track on GT5.

Well apparently they were £3000 in Vietnam where they originate from plus £200 shipping to the UK so I hope you get an awful lot of laughs of the order of 3 times more than the Vietnamese. As for 450 man hours to build one of these well I think that must include the 400 hours waiting for the bits to arrive! mad

Hmmm me thinks this is a case of the importer/retailer getting a little greedy. 10K is wayyyyyy too much.

This is a bit anti PH thinking but fook it- i'm drunk.
Would pick a motorbike/quad over it anyday. Reason? Too expensive and it's not road legal or anything. Plus, hardly safe- imagine being in an accident...

Anyway, it looks fun- and i'm sure it is. Be it racing around the house, or something...

I wonder if you could have a race with them on a karting circuit - do they 'handle'?
rofl

Even if they don't it'd be utterly hilarious.

This

is about the funniest thing I've seen all year. biggrin
Poor old tyres, less pies me think.

biggrin

Fewer pies. If you're going to insult my weight, you ought to get the grammar right wink ...
hehe

Can you get them sideways?
A sideways pie is called a pastie (or in the west of Scotland, a bridie)
