Goodbye to the mud
« on: July 17, 2006, 09:09:32 »
Saying goodbye to the mud and the rough stuff.  Gave offroading a try and it was fun, but not as much fun as smooth tarmac, grippy tyres and a bit of power.

I've got a R33 Nissan Skyline and a 20yr old RR.As soon as the skyline's past the mot I'll be keeping the RR.Speeds fun but not as much fun as mud.Sold the series Landy when I got the Skyline but mist the mud so much.Pete
