How the hell are you, guess you've been run off your feet running holiday land up there. I heard this week that your old girl got written off less than a few months after it's new owner took possession? So you're gonna buy a Multi-noodle to replace then hey. Title: Re: I dont miss my Multi anymore Post by: Big T on August 01, 2009, 03:49:31 PM Who is this strange man called R_usty??????? Hey Rusty good to hear your still alive and kicking.....

He is a dwarf and watching him stand next to his RGV on the start line waiting for the drop of the flag was hilarious. [laugh] The flag would drop and he would dump the clutch and do a rodeo cowboy flick up into the saddle and away he would go!! :o He was pretty quick too. Footpegs were reattached about 400mm higher than original. What a bloody character he was. Good racer, but better at drinking [beer].
