Sorry mate - I've been trying to get down to you blokes for a week now, but it's been a bit mental here! You around today?

LOL, it's all good. My week of pain starts today.

[Marv]

I'll make sure I pop over and annoy you with this oversize plastic ruler I just found...

Can I make a suggestion,

When doing 1/4 mile tests, use half a tank of fuel, just driver (no passenger), set tyre pressures for the strip use the right revs. I would even suggest using a 1/4 mile specialist rather then a journo.

Also please publish the MPH, eg: 13.20 @ 104.8 MPH. The 60 foot time would be a bonus!

Iain, I am pleased to accept your offer of this position.

[XAC15T]

Awesome mate! As a redundant journo, feel free to let me know if you have any positions available :p

[Guido]

Congrats Iain, look forward to the first issue.

Hey Iain have you done something to Motor's Facebook interaction already? Lots of good stuff being posted lately without the old Motor style of insulting the readers' intelligence. Bravo. I'll end up subscribing again if this carries through to print.

Since PF is taking over another part of the universe, can you do some more of the give two blokes a grand (or whatever) each and they buy stupid cars and do humourous things with them (like TG but better)? ta

Posthumous tribute to the Taurus?

They have done that already, 2009/2010. Was a good read.

from what I remember EA/ED? falcon, 5L holden Volvo, first gen RX7, and a Beetle.

[GTV]

Yeah I enjoyed that too. Think I have those issues lying around somewhere. Would love to see that again.

Marv when is the first issue under your reign of terror?

[baggins]

I met you once at a skidpan day when you may have been working for Speed. Therefore I feel I am qualified to say congrats, dude.

I broke into Marvs office while in Sydney. Security was shithouse. Some tattooed and pierced dudes from mini truck monthly buzzed me in and showed me where his scotch stash was in his corner office. Nice view.

Bring back the original 'Rat-o-tool' - not the new age metro mouse
