Cool

You know it just occured to me that the running 'fuel surge' joke is still going strong and occurs on nearly every car internet forum I register on. I usually still pick the name 'saxo boy' and the same password to make it easy to remember and there isn't a day gone by since last october where I've not seen it mentioned somewhere.

It seems to me that the most recurring joke/theme on SN revolves around me A close second being the infamous scooby in a lake

Cheers

Reckon PSLewis and his gold wheels must be up there in the top 5 famesters on SN but admittedly his passion for them isn't perhaps as widespread as your fuel surge notoriety

Ah yes, the gold wheels. Also Gridlock Mikey and his cavalier attitude to scooby modding

Neither do I I'm not finding you to be particularly friendly here? You made a joke, I said I didn't get it (which usually means please explain) but the tone of your last post seems a bit off?

I'm not trying to make any point or cause any hassle.

Sipie cunningly turned this into a 'how are you know' thread:

Saxo Boy = fuel surge
Pslewis = gold alloys and old age
gridlock mikey = it won't go bang tune away
you = being grumpy when you click on a thread thats of no interest to you

SB - Go Fast is referring to two famous (well at least everyon ELSE knows about them ) wind up threads posted on here.. you honestly didn't read them ???

Do a search ffs! You are missing out. Thats where the reference to the stuffed guinea pig comes from, STi isn't being nasty (unusually eh,Mr. T ? )

I'd prefer to be remembered for sorting the original BIG ONE but I suppose 3rd for offering a different point of view is as good

Well.... I've done a search so you can't flame me for being lazy

ROTFLMAO @ the thread sipie found. Man I'd have loved to have been that furry little critter

The short version for rik:

I spun the car - I posted saying mid bend fuel surge was a major contributer - nobody agree - we fought - I got slagged for months - following several other instances of cronic surge in my case people started to believe it might have been a factor - the end

The original took 9 pages in one thread and was spread over several threads

Here is the horse thread: http://www.scoobynet.co.uk/bbs/threa...D=97702&Page=1

they work as a pack?
That was my personal favourite

STI, you can be added to the list and be associated with roving gangs of wild horse that strategically trap, kill and eat their pray

Ha ha Sti is as famous/infamous as me I can't believe I missed all these threads. Probably because they are about animals and I'm not really interested in animals.

hehe from sti go fast...
i think weasels are a bit nasty- as far as i know they eat animals that dont fight back- i think a sturdy weasle could stand its ground against a horse.

I wonder if my 'flashing letters' earn me a place in the SN Hall of Fame?
