Used to have a Granturismo and my name is Dan, not too cunning really.

Now, my name on SELOC is Dogfeet.... that has a story. Albeit a slightly dull one.

Crab. I've thrown quite a lot of you brown jobs out of the back. Most of them survived!

Most of us couldn't wait to get off - always liked the RAF philosphy - keep the enlisted men safe at home and send the officers to war.
As a young apprentice I built Harrier's - should have seen the flyboys face when a pongo Warrant Officer told him I had screwed his office together twenty years earlier!

wow Elliott, I love it stunning colour choice, what engine is in him? Would it be an Alfa V6? Mike....my other half has a Lancia Integrale. The old Lancia's are timeless, especially the Stratos. Mike wishes that Ferrari would allow the new prototype Stratos to be made, just to be able to see one.

Yes, a 24v Alfa 3.0 V6. The car only weighs about 750Kgs and so is really, really quick, though she runs out of steam at 130ish (apparently) :) I copied the colour scheme from a photo of a 1970s Polish privateer rally team. The rear louvres are black (or rather, dark grey. There's no question which of my cars lives in the garage. And, it ain't the 4200 or the Twin Air 500.

My username carries a deep and hidden message. It says "I have little imagination and am prone to laziness when choosing usernames".

I feel like I may have missed a trick and should have gone for something at least slightly interesting.

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

Just a fun sport. It's actually international with guys coming from Austrailia, New Zealand and the USA.
I actually won the "world cup" in 2008 and 2009. What did I win??? A small glass trophy - thats it! lol
We all do it just for fun and bragging rights! :)

Fair play, is Tubber our first world championship winning member? Anyone else got a hidden claim to fame?
