Title: Got Taken Home on a Truck...
Post by: Poison_UK on June 24, 2006, 02:03:36 AM
Went out for a drive in the moors about 10miles from home after a rather amazing drive.. Smoke billows out of my bonnet, try to drop into 2nd gear CRUNCCCCHH!

So I try the old trick red line it drop the revs and bang it in then, at the correct moment of same revelation but no :(

Open the bonnet clutch plates are in flames, smoke bellowing out...

So with no credit, had to beg the people at the BP station to let me use thier phone. 20minutes got picked up, by some guy who knew my Dad and he just couldnt stop laughing at the fact I was  his son...


So im now rather drunk as thats going to make an okay job, an even bigger pain in the arse... Meh :(
