Wife Thinks I Am Strange

[Corpulent Tosser]

Not without good reason some of you might say.

However today while travelling through Glasgow , returning home from dropping daughter off at Glasgow Airport, I spotted a Dodge Viper a couple of cars behind me, I slowed down, moved over and put the window down ( now as this was Glasgow putting the window down even at 50mph could be considered daring but what the hell I thought )
Anyhoo, I sat and enjoyed the noise of the Viper going by, absolutely brilliant sound, whoever you are if you are reading this it brightened up a dull drive. Ta !

[Corpulent Tosser]

Black with two stripes - silver I think.

I Know, I Know !! But the temptation was too strong

Would probably be Martin, he has done some work on his exhausts so would sound better that normal. There are a few in Glasgow, you don't see them on the road very often

Could be, it sounded great, nice looking car too.

Sometimes people overtake me then pull back to have a listen then you have to do what all PHers should and give it the berries

Vipers sound very nice, especially with loud pipes........nearly as good as the vette

I'm slowly training my girlfriend. It's been 3 years so far and now she has accepted that these things HAVE to be done. I have also trained her that the car isn't clean until the tyre walls are blackened - That took quite a while!

scary stuff. Only time I ever used that tyre black stuff it felt like I was driving on black ice! It was lethal!

Vowed never to use it again and no, I didn't get it on the treads, merely the sidewall

Doesn't matter if you drive it on the sidewalls...
I find that tyres are replaced before they need 'blackened'

My wife actually confessed that she now puts her window down if she sees something exotic.

I did exactly the same a few months ago as what was probably exactly the same car passed me on the m77, it wasnt hanging about either
