Interesting selection so far; an unbiased obeserver might think that the so called 'deep experts' on GT 40's have something to hide !.Why should anyone object to any questions which do not seem to have had a proper airing ?. Seems like a club where some peoples views are apparently worth more than others. Freedom of speech I say.

How much to ship it to me?

 

Re: TOP TEN QUESTIONS VIRGIN GT40 NEWBIES SHOULDN\'T ASK-

I agree with Davids comments. Don't forget guys not everybody is as clued up as you are, this is why they ask questions. If you feel the questions are stupid, then don't reply to them, but please don't take the p**s out of people. All this does is give the impression of arrogance, which helps nobody in the long run. So show patience, and you never know, one day these people who need your help now, may infact be helping you in the future.

Is it an American or British car?

Does a Chev SB motor fit?

Can I build one on a VW chassis?

How many suitcases can I fit in the boot?

So what kind of Ferrari is this then?

PS. To our friends who are not familiar… the Letterman top 10 is very much tongue-in-cheek. It’s a dig at those owners who take themselves too seriously. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I think the "flavor" of the start of this thread is the ten most popular questions asked and debated that can be found by using the search button yourself. Many times these questions can't be answered. (Which kit is best? is like asking what should my favorite color be. It's subjective.)

Lighten up guys - geeeeez, one can't poke some good natured fun without someone inevitably taking offense - I give up.

Sorry Chris....

Letterman is past my bedtime....but I caught your drift...

Seriously though (??)...asking this Forum subjective questions is like walking into a bar/pub and proclaiming which athlete is the best !
