Re: JC on MS

Great story even though on balance I don't like some of MS's less sporting moments. I still appreciate him and I think, behind the visor, there is a really genuine, rounded guy in there.

The JC story link to his 159 report is great. I loved the last line of this quote about the old GTV6 "And the howl from its V6 engine. In a tunnel, at 4000rpm, it was more sonorous than any music. It was like having your soul licked by angels." Petrol poetry.
