PFS1.jpg Fans, racing fans and lovers of muscle cars.........

Unashamedly I still sleep in this T-shirt in winter from time to time. (It's getting a bit thin after more than 15 years)

The only class that I may be able to run these tyres with are the Silver Cup guys..not another single class (besides Historics, which aren't really sponsor f...

Thanks guys for the nice words, advice and encouragement. 2009 is where it all starts again.
