Hey DWRAT......
You ever get your ride yet, just curious cuz I remember you said your wife had purchased a new Beamer rocket and was wonderin' if she ever allowed you to get your Cobra yet? Just don't like to see a former Cobra man without his ride and you have bin pretty quiet recently.

Ratboy is so wipped. His wife gets a new car, a new place up north. So now he has to work, work, work to pay for it all.

Mikiec, I can understand him bein' P-whipped, he's got a gorgeous wife. DWRAT, yu da man, pal, yu da man. You gotta be the only guy I know that sells his ride cuz his wifey made him do it in pursuit of other interests. Ceptin' now you lookin for a new ride, right, so how is that coming along and jus' outa curiosity, how many yes dears does it take to get a new Cobra?  
Is it true what Mikiec said you is workin' your fanny off now to pay for all those goodies your wifey demanded and that's why you have been off the radar? So how does that work exactly, you both have jobs, she gets to keep her earnings and you give her all of yours? Wow, whata guy. 
Yep, Mikiec, he's P-whipped OK, that's for sure.
All in good fun, DWRAT, all in good fun. tin-man

Dave, Tin-man knows from experience, he's been working the last few decades in China to pay for the fun he had with his ex-wife!
All in fun, Tin-man!

In Asia, the man is the man, what he earns belongs to him, so long as he can keep it hidden from his wife.

Hi Dave. Are you finally returned from the wilds of SoCal and the Great White North? Back in the land of the Neverending Heat? How did the trailer work?

Got back a couple of weeks ago. Forgot to call you.
Trailer worked fine only one minor little problem. Got easier to get it in and tied down the more we did it.

I kinda bent the support that cranks down so you can lift the tongue. The motor home is too low in the back and at that point it's about 15' back from the rear axle. Got it straightened out and changed the ball to as high as it would go. Going in and out of parks took it's toll. Gonna fix it before the next time I use it.

Car Nut, be very careful how you speed and break, remember DWRAT has Sphincter enteritis. and may leave your pasengers seat with a permanent crease in it.
Do you have a handle in the car so he can hang on to it? tin-man
DWRAT, all in good fun, all in good fun, and I owe you, big time. tin-man

Tinner, Please don't break tradition by being nice to Ratboy. It just makes it that much harder on the rest of us. Thank you.

does everyone pick on Ratboy, I asked this question before but did not get a response. I was thinking maybe, just maybe, it was the speed up slow down body reactions that got attributed to him and mentioned a while back which brought me to the conclusion he may be allergic to Cobras, in that he developed Sphincter entritis, compounded by a natural human instinctive grasping motion when the mind told him "use whatever you got to, to hang on pal", cuz your gonna get thrown outta' da seat and thus Ratboy reacted in a fight or flight mode and his ass grabbed the seat. Granted this is just speculation on my part, but when I heard it took someone several hours to clean the seat, well it just seem to make sense. Did I come close?
Well, when I do get my ride, Christmas, maybe, I can test the theory, but if its true and he "stains" [kind word] all over my seat, y'all can bet I will be all over him like white on rice, BIG TIME. tin-man
BTW do you have the vid clip of last years Kit Cars on the Colorado where Ratboy was doing some burn outs? If you still have that clip could you download a copy to my private email address? Thanks, John, AKA, tin-man

NO!!!!!!!!!
The video of MikieC sitting dead nuts in the burn out path is long gone and dead.
I guess he didn't realize what a powerful motor could really do.

Dan, lookin forward to sharin' the ride and I will need some drivin' pointers too. Wa, you only work four days a week, huh? C'mon over to China and you can work 24/7 and earn enough to buy two Cobras in less that a yaer. But that said, will your wifely let you go, alone, to China? If you do decide to come over here let me know, there are some mighty fine ladies here that would throw money at you and make you their S-slave.  Had to abreviate cuz Posi throws a fit at the fully spelled out word. BTW don't let your wifey read this. John, AKA tin-man
