i'd like a taller 6th now that i have the supercharger - no need to be revving over 3k on the freeway anymore

At last I'm able to help my hero Flash! Want a taller gear...just put the car up on bricks! It's so satisfying being able to help sometimes! Sigh.

lol - it has already spent too much time in the air
i drove it again today, and REALLY wish i had a .68 6th gear - revving at 3500 down the freeway in 6th is just silly now that i have the supercharger - sure, it's instant torque on tap now, but i really don't need to be doing that

Sorry to be so obtuse. Probably didn't help that the "?" ended up on a new page <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />
I was completely baffled about the previous posts - "Bash on Rob Falls"?
Maybe it's some kind of TV show in Scotland, like my UK buddy who refers to "The Vicar of Digby" or something like that? I have no idea what he's talking about half the time either <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/biggrin.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

Vicar of Dibley - great stuff if you have the mind for British comedy. I grew up on the stuff, explains a lot <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/blink.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

Me thinks me hearties that Flash has spent too much time making the grog perfect and not enough drinking it(driving really)! I remember years ago when my interest in music began to play second fiddle to tweeking hi-fi and messing about with it instead of sitting down and just soaking up the music! It's easy to loose track of what it's meant to be about. Although in Flash's defence as I have said elsewhere ("we come in peace, shoot to kill"), Flash provides endless knowledge and input to all things 968. It would be churlish to castigate him too strongly. But in a whisper rising to a crescendo I will just say this..."drive the bloody thing"! PS a lot!

You understand me RAP? You're definitely drinking to much! Go a join Flash in the corner! Bad boy naughty boy! With a glass of Cabernet of course! Hic! P.S. Flash went to the doctor's and said " Doc, I've got a problem, "What's that said the doc, reply..."two hands but only one mouth"! Ah,an oldy but a goldy!

Clearly you don't have the latest version of The Hitchhiker Guide <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/wink.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />, my Babble fish works fine.
