The Big Prize

[turbomangt]

Today I secured my paint sealant protection system at my Lambo dealership. This is the first Lambo I paint sealed for this program, and it is officially the most expensive car I ever worked on which retails at $293,000. No, I didn't drive it, didn't even sit in it. You won't believe me if I told you how much they are charging the customers. Just think, you guys are paying $10 a bottle, it came out like glass. I still stink at pictures though. Gary

To be honest, I don't want to drive cars above 100 grand. I picked up a Ferarri a few weeks ago and it was a bitch to drive. You need two keys to start it, a secret code, password, and it had two shifters on both sides of the stering wheel. I'm perfectly happy with my Turbo Cruiser. The only thing that would make me more happy is 300 hp under the hood. I think those guys on the Turbo tech forum will figure it our soon.

Man, as a huge fan of Formula 1 racing I gotta tell ya, I'd love the opportunity to drive a paddle shift Ferrari. I remember when Ferrari developed this system for F1 in the early 90's - Nigel Mansell was testing one and got fully crossed exiting a corner, went to upshift but with his arms literally crossed his brain sort of shorted and instead of upshifting he tapped the wrong paddle and downshifted instead, at full throttle and redline! KA-BOOM!! Yeah, they started putting in the rev limiters shortly after that!

That's the right car for properly viewing miniskirts on city sidewalks....[]

Gary,
Nice job-what a shine. Hope they like the work you did. I know why you didn't get in because you may have to get out . I probably would need a davit and chain block to get me out, them babies are low.[|)]
