Hi guys, do you ever have one of those days where the world seems a real good place to be, like when you have been paid by a customer or you managed to buy the only dvd copy of The Fast & furious featuring a 20 minute chase with zeds (yeh right!) and most of all the car is running TOPS!!
Spent most of yesterday travelling around customers sorting probs out on their cars and in between each call ended up having either races or drags off the lights.Seems everybody was up for it yesterday around the Tamworth area.
But one particular bit of fun was when waiting at some lights outside Lichfield two abreast against a Merc SLK guy was well up for it and scoping the green light and the road ahead with seconds to go a black and red bike pulled between us not sure of make but had a z logo on I think but defo 1100 sign,now all three are waiting for the green light and..... go! bike moved forward 3 or 4 metere`s (tops) and bogged down as I had moved off I had to back off or hit him! he pulled it back (one car length) and I floored it! on his back wheel through the next 4 of his very noisy gear changes, but ahead a tractor and cross hatchings and on coming traffic (Hmmm?) sod it followed him around the tractor and down the straight 100+ 125 + 140 + still on his back wheel!! slow for a traffic island and stop.Guy on bike goes right I go straight on but as we turn he gave a salute and thumbs up, bet that shocked him! jeez do these cars rock or what??
