    Or the California plate on the back. But it also has a 'CD' badge on the rear so the cops wouldn't bother me.:P

    I was in UCD with a guy who got stopped on the N11 doing 140mph in an M3.....pulled the diplomatic card and got away with no hassle.

    I think his father was a Russian diplomate or something

    Nah but it's not all about the power.

    light weight and correct setup will provide plenty of thrills

    Oh I know that, and at least the Mazda's are limited. I did the course years ago in the rovers which were limited to 3k rpm I think and they were the most yawn inducing laps I ever did at mondello.

    i'm gonna start cycling to work now, it's on about 2-3km. Killer is though it's all down hill going and every inch is uphill coming back.

    First week is the hardest. Then once you get used to it you will actually miss your cycle if you have to stop for some reason. I walk from Phibsboro to St Stephens Green most mornings and then reverse in the evenings. Its quicker to walk half the way and hop on a bus than bus it the whole way home in the evenings.

    Nice walk that!

    I used to cycle to work. Just over 40 odd km round trip. Loved it 'til the crappy gears crapped themselves!
