Today marks the last day the Phoon will be in my possession.

the new beast (cough!) will be ready this afternoon for the weekend.

At least I still have the race car, which should be ready for the Feb event, I've only had about 9 months to prepare it!

Sounds like a great idea, shame we didnt have time for a spin :

GRNKPR - where is my fruit bowl, i need it back before your tuppaware party!

Yes I have the new toy and its going great. Its on rails around corners and the performance isn't too bad for a little beast.

Might have to get name change for the forums too! :
