Title: todays good deed
Post by: Richie London on 11 November 2010, 17:52:12
mates g/f collapsed shopping tuesday, x-ray showed a shadow on the left of her brain, i did tell her it was probably hank marvin  ::) so i went to see how she was, doc came just as i was leaving and said her mri scan was ok, so she could go home but needs rest. so we went to collect her car from the shopping centre. took ages trying to get the car out for free as its been there a few days. but they caved in and let us out. long time ive drove a manual and it was a nightmare.nissan almera is horrid thing to drive. thats my good deed done for the day, but i know i'll never buy a manual drive car again. clutch up clutch down every couple of seconds.

just glad she is ok and back home with her family.  :y

they said possibley migraine as shes had a headache for a few days, but to be safe they are referring her to a neurologist for some tests. she has been quite stressed lately.she is probably one of the kindest women i have ever come across and tends to worry far too much.

Sounds sensible to have the referral Richie - hope there's nothing to worry about. :y

I can't believe I forgot my mate Johathan "Happy Feet" Rarity - Scottish hillclimb champion. :-[

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5sH2i0Zf14

Then again, he's only got 2 pedals - but it's not what you think. ;)

He doesn't use the clutch enough to dedicate a whole foot to it. ;D

For some reason I just love the fact that Senna is doing all that in .. what looks like a pair of brown moccasins/loafers ;D

And I can only dream of being that good at driving.. just cannot seem to make my brain, feet & hands work in sync fast enough to heel & toe most of the time :(

Not fully sure, but look at the lights, takes him about 6 or 7 seconds to go after the lights change.... ::) ::)

Auto clutch..??

You can change gear without the clutch with a decent gear box, but if that was the case then I am unsure how he started..... :-/

Post by: Kevin Wood on 12 November 2010, 00:13:43
It's a bike engine - so clutchless shifts with a flat shift device of some sort, I believe. He has a hand operated clutch to get him off the line, then flappy-paddle-it all the way up the hill. 8-)

I think that run is still the fastest ever ascent of Doune hillclimb.

The car is bespoke - built with a bit of help from his mates. It didn't even have any bodywork at that stage. He hadn't saved up for it!

It was an absolutely incredible drive.. one day I'd love to have a go in something like that (assuming I lose half my bodyweight!) - even though I know I wouldn't have testicles big enough to drive it like that!

I reckon he must be related to this little guy: http://www.livescience.com/animals/cricket-largest-testicles-101109.html

You're by the airport.. just get a job working those full-body scanners there - that's basically like having X-ray specs, so I hear.. ;D

Not sure how you'd get away with only ever scanning women, though.. ;D

[edit] I feel bad for the guy who scanned me once.. although at least I wasn't wearing the suspender erm.. I've said too much, haven't I.
