I went down my local motorsport supplier this morning to buy a couple of additional lengths of roll cage tubing. I was initially a little frustrated that despite being the only person in the shop it still took the guy behind the counter half an hour to get the tube.

What really annoyed me was the fact that I initially asked for 3 meters, however they only had 2.5 meters in stock, not a major problem 2.5m is better then nothing but when it came to pay for it they wanted to charge me for a full 3m length.

Out of interest, how much per meter?

This is FORD country, on a quiet day you can hear Vauxhalls rusting.

Funnily enough I nearly put an order in at merlin for some race numbers yesterday. Postage was minimum £10. Fook that, got twice as many numbers off Ebay for the same price and £2.50 postage.

Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph
