He he he. Ok, you made my day 8)

Naw, Craig managed that all by himself....well maybe not totally by himself,
his wife helped out a little 8p.
It was such a great feeling to hear that monster come to life. Damn, just
wish we could feel it pushed to the limit.
Kinda like the week before Christmas when your a kid, just gotta have
patience.

He he he.
Good one Brad.

Randy B
81 Cosmos Scirocco S - I guess mine's next.
81 Mars Scirocco S - tt 1847cc 8V
87 gold Scirocco 16V - parts for Cosmos project

Oh yeah, to explain the Smoking mpeg. Try to picture grandma making up a
homemade pot of spaghetti.
.......Sniff, sniff. Ahhhhhh, just right..........

Congratulations Craig, I think you now have the fastest Mk1 Scirocco on the
West coast. Anybody wanna disagree?
I DARE YOU!  8)
