Default Could it be .......

........ that your car performs better on the road than on a rolling road

Was there yesterday & on the way home me & another scoob that got a higher rating had a little play

I went pulled on him & was going to pass him ( was edging in front) until i had to brake to take my junction

Other guy couldnt believe it & tbh neither could i or my passenger ??

Anyone got any views on this

Thanks

Stephen

Ps its not as if i am complaining
