2b1ask1 is a nod to my other hobby, I do because I can't play golf.... am too knackered these days to play rugby and hate being under the good lady wife's feet when I'm not at work... Being one, if anyone wants to be one they need only ask one, a freemason that is.... and that is it; I use the name on almost all forums I frequent, its not just you lot that suffer me!!!!

Love the word Cambiocorsa, the gearbox as well.. I wanted to combine it with the "Mr" thing, so i got Mr.Cambio. Means, Mr."LoveTheCambiocorsa", but cambio in Italy means 'change'..so, i'm Mr.Change... At least, change is the noun that suits me most this period...

Confused a little?

My name is always a good conversation starter.
I race bathtubs on the Pacific ocean. Think of a fibreglass mold of an old claw footed bathtub (rolled top).
Attach a fibreglass hull, a transome, an 8HP two stroke that's been modified a bit, then a racing propeller (stainless cleaver).
All those things add up to about 40mph on the ocean waves ranging from 0-14 feet high and a whole lot of fun!!
My tub number is 273, we are known as tubbers....hence "tubber273".
I'll try to post a picture!! :)

Tubber that looks like great hobby, or is it a job, do you do it professionally?

Nothing too exotic about my username I'm afraid - Gary being my first name and 687 is my old shoulder number from when I used to be in the Old Bill back in the UK!! My number plate over here was nice and cheap too with my details 687 GJD - doesn't mean anything to anyone else so was snapped up cheaply.
