No, its OK, Loo Knee's count is actually bigger than anyone elses. It just the counter is only 16 bit, so it only goes up to 65,536, and then rolls over. But being Microslop software, it can't cope, so has put in the "-" sign to let you know its rolled over. So Loo Knee's count is actually 65,672, so he beats TB, and obviously should be a Moderator.

The flaw in your theory is that it is crappy ol' Linux, not Windoze ;)

Marks_DTM wanted to bounce up a kerb to get a cat the other night, but I managed to stop him damaging your wheel.

Might need to keep hold of it for another few days until I've got some straight replacements  :-*


As a special treat, I put some air in it for you though....

It no longer looks like a hedgehog anymore......given the age of it the rubber will be well past its best anyway so TB is doing you a favour by ripping 3 mm off it.

Not sure if its crap (and old) Michelin rubber, 205 tyres, or higher profile, but it has done nothing to cure that understeer problem. Quite the opposite :o
