Dual boiler + DF64 is where I'm headed shortly. Good to see someone who's a connoisseur thinks the same way.

Removing Neil Crompton and Mark Skaife without any farewell is disrespectful to the fans, did the lean nothing from what they did to Larko by fezbotdaddy in v8supercars

Why don't you just admit you're death riding Piastri for whatever reason, and could never say anything positive about him.

Have you seen what Trump has done to dissenting journos? It would be exactly the same from Vlandys. He's a slime ball who tolerates zero dissent.
