What happens when you give a "shift stick" to an Yank! I bet they go and bomb somebody.......and their own forces.

Exclamation

Nothing an oil change won't cure

Made my costly little explosion look like a little scratch on a piston

Thread takes ages to download because of so many huge pics. For those that haven't seen it, OMG, due to a mis-shift the engine was calculated to hit about 16 000 RPM just before comprehensively losing the will to live, and those pistons really do look like baked potatoes
