So your PH name is pissflaps & your car reg number ends in raf (rough as fk) in case there is anyone out there who doesnt understand the term raf.

Welcome to PH. You will fit in well & go far!!!

Genius name & reg number.

Fatboy - I am afraid I can quite claim genius status mate (although my sister used to call me Brain from
Pinkey and the brain so i must nearly qualify ;-) My name is Rafael, so that was the inspiration for the plate

Tvr Tuscan driving through Norton? Looked nice - I was on way back from getting a quote to get roof wrapped and some other goodies fitted ;-)

No running in all done yonks ago as its a year old. Rev limiter is about 7200 as its usually in sport mode. I tend to change gear by 4k unless I am pushing on and I definately didn't do that earlier today. May be the larini exhaust still running in that you heard as it tends to flutter if I change gear at 4k as I think that's the point where the valve opens.

No you went through my trading estate (foxmoor)then I went to the skylark and you went past the beer garden we listened to you go down the a38 towards taunton. it sounded like you hit the rev limiter on the roundabout and chelston straight but didn't sound like high revs.

Thanks for the warm welcome all, hopefully see you about.

Chim ah yeah i went to SW tinting. No definately no rev limit action going on - was just pootling about didn't boot it at all yesterday. Next time I am in the area will be sure to give it some beans as it starts to scream past about 4.5k :-)
