Sods law
« on: 02 August 2009, 23:31:43 »
Thought it was about time I got the phone volumes sorted in the car, seeing as the NCDR has been in there for nearly a year ::)

That done, I took the car for a blast to test the phones at speed, only to get screwed in standstill traffic about 500yrds passed the Silverstone turn. Took about 40mins to do 4m before I could get off  >:(

Lots of old Fords (mainly RS and XR) stuck in traffic, and a fair few on the verge with bonnets up in true Ford style, so I guess that there was something on at Silverstone.  Actually, judging by the fact that most of them had the black tape over the lights, I'd guess it was a Ford run-what-you-brung type day.  Some immaculate cossies though...

Yes, it was the Fraud / Ford Fair today.
Markie and I usually go every year, but not this time.

We used to go the backroads way  :y

Ahh! An engine I am going to have to get out of my system one of these days. Obviously without any lardy old Fraud rusty bodywork round it.  ::)

A mate of mine had one in a Dax Rush. Absolutely awesome car. Plonker sold it to buy a BMW Z3M Toupe. Then it got worse, and he got into bikes. :-X
