    There's only 1 rule to remember on Frankie's threads:

    Rule #1 Frankie always wins.

    What can I say, top man year in year out as far as I can see. We all need try harder next year....."I'll get you next time, Gadget! NEXT time!"

    ////////

    Rule #3....fastest three times 'wins' an offering to the gods of speed – knackered rod, jam jar of abused ATF, etc
    Rule #4….more than one time per person can be listed but only one run counts in the final placings

    I say ‘wins’ cos it’s only a trophy until the next competition

    Just some thoughts lads, feel free to say ‘££££e’

    Yeah I thought it felt faster as well tbh, if I get a tb and other bits I'm after I'll have to go take it down the 1/4, try get it done before the end of the year!

    you start laying down rules, then you'll ruin the fun of winding stribo and frankie up and there are actually 2 rules in this thread

    Rule 1 Frankie is always right

    Rule 2 If... Frankie is wrong, Rule 1 then applies

    no more rules are required Simples

    Current Volvo's 1995 854 Gul T-5R 1996 855 Olive T-5R 1997 855 Olive AWD 1999 V70R AWD and 2005 XC90 D5 AWD
