I heard the rumour that a 'hairdressers car' Mazda MX5, once pissed all over a 3.0 Omega in a drag race.

Can't believe it really happened.

Wow, where has the time gone. I was here at the start and I've never been able to shake the "Useless Student" tag line. Since I was actually a student when OOF was born and did not actually have a job  ;D

I also enjoyed all the various events the really big cambelt event we split into two sites in Brackley if I recall. One at Tunnie towers at the time and another at TB Towers.

Spent many an evening on here over those early years. I still do miss my green 2.2 Omega, my first one and really enjoyed owning it. Still the longest I've owned a car as well, I don't think I'll own another car for as long as I did with that one.

It's finest moment, for all the mockery of the 2.2 had, came when I had to tow TB's dead V6 project home from the pub  :D

Anyone know anything about Broocie these days ?
It would be nice to hear from him again. I always enjoyed his calm words of wisdom.

He hasnt logged on in over two years, so unless someone is in contact with him, it might be unlikely.  :-\

I heard you went all posh and started buying horses and stuff. Of course, no one mention the cart full of scrap metal behind it.
