I'd like to say a warm "Hello!" to the couple of listers who emailed 
Ray and said "Hey, Brett's dissin' your car on the quattro list". 
The rest of the list can happily hit 'delete' for this does not apply 
to them.

Since Ray and I are friends (well, except when I put photos in the 
Gripster of him flying a$$ over teakettle at the winter driving 
school AND manage to spell his last name wrong in the caption...or 
when he compares me to porn kings), I know Ray's car doesn't have an 
anti-lag system, and Ray gave me the courtesy of a phone call before 
doing what others did- jump to conclusions.  It also means that, when 
I was parked next to him at Tremblant, I witnessed a conversation 
where someone asked Ray if he was running anti-lag and he replied no- 
and said some things which made it into my reply (my reply was also 
based on some articles on the web, one or two of which I believe were 
mentioned in the thread).

Mind your own p's and q's, folks, and don't go telling a friend of 
mine I'm talking about him behind his back because of some assumption 
on your part.

Signing off for the night (at the least),

Brett
