Something about

it. 

actually, o saintly one, your little manouever was specifically on the
on-ramp to the motorway.  in the wet.  and you then claimed long and
loud that you'd discovered the spider bite.  now, where i come from
thats pretty close to being the oxford definition of a dipstick.  if i
was you, i'd be trying to keep that little party piece pretty quiet.

now, re-read my post, prehaps more slowly this time, so you can
comprehend it.  were my full power 2nd gear hands free turns executed on
the road?  errrr no.  were they in a safe environment?  errr yes.  was i
competing at the time?  err no.  and where was the "hands full of
u-o-u-o-u" as predicted?  prehaps that could have been the reason for
the manouever in the 1st place?  hello, anyone home????

btw, the torsen certainly didn't harm my times.  interesting how this
seems to have escaped some people's attention.

mmmm, wonder why that would be?

also, jeff comments with the high moral tone are pretty rich coming from
someone who has explored the torsen's behaviour on the *road* in a type
44 with a self-discovered propensity to bite.  prehaps i could use the
words he used against me to describe his own behaviour? 

enough said already.
