My Son had a toy steering wheel which he used to spin furiously, making loads of go-faster noises, leaning into all the tight corners, perhaps running the government feels a bit like that. You make all the noises, but when you stop you haven't really gone anywhere.

Re: Loudest cobra

I am noticing a distinct loss of hearing these days, and have started to wear earplugs in the Cob.

Not so much the exhaust noise, but the wind noise, I think. Especially on longer higher speed runs, motorway work etc.

Dave - good to have met you.

Dvae - it was briefly as you were about to leave, by the club tent, introduced by Purple AK (who is probably quite wet by now).
