Nice time Mr Moore.

Bet he'd enjoy doing a lap in the R8 if he's into his Audi's

crap, i wanted to post a pic of Sean from that gig, but I don't have any, Nicky and James only, but when I opened the file I just went AAAAAAAAAAH because Nicky was so pretty that time. oh and yes, I've got my laptop back.

[The Gutless Wonder]

[Cara cathau]

See - THIS is why Sean should take a crack at being "the Star in the Reasonably Priced Car" on "Top Gear". He'd be sure to beat Simon Cowell!

His inside leg only looks about 26/27, about the same as mine when I have shoes on. I could never reach the pedals when I had driving lessons and always had to take 2 pillows with me to put me forward, the driving instructor told me if I drove a bigger car I would have had to have had blocks on the pedals!

I had the same problem when I went go karting in Spain with Ade and some of his friends, I could just about touch the accelerator at full stretch but couldn't get it even a quarter of the way down. I was putting around the track at 5 mph. I went round twice then got out. It's not that I'm actually very short overall at 5' 2", but my legs are disproportionately short for my height.

I think Sean is more the other way round, he has fairly long legs for a man of his height.

[franny]

woo, well done Sean, nice to see it officially, what a legend!

[Napoleon Bonaparte]

Are we sure this is "our" Sean Moore?

[franny]

Yep, it actually is.
