The code tag was broken on the forum we used to use... so yeah... dots it was. It was also originally from a forum that didn't even have a code tag so creative dots ahoy! :lol:

I'd redo it but I'm busy as sin... still manage a post every now and then... just no time for ascii art :D

LOL man that pic is funny anywya, yea manual does have a big advantage over a tip, long ago when i was at a race track.. yes a race track!! i had a friendly duel ON the race track vs a tip GPX and it was close but i got the edge everytime i changed gear i just boosted forward a little more each time. man was that a good day at the race track, which i remind u is oh so legal :wink:

anyway, its all just for fun, guessing times, or taking your FTO for a run, but just dont take it too serious, as much as i love my fto, it's not a fast car, and i dont care if it is. if we were after speed we wouldnt own fto's, so just keep that in mind, and doesnt matter who's car is faster :D
