Hi all,

Another new XR6T owner, unable to stop grinning like an idiot while on the road. (And also still wondering how I got this approved by the leader of the opposition).

Have been reading the forum for a couple of months, which have actually seemed like a couple of years, since placing my order last year. It's a brilliant site. Thanks for all the good info.

If you see a new Acid Rush turbo on the streets of Canberra, give us a wave.

Oh my god!.......Ken look!.......It's Frodo! :lol:

Oh no, your name is Frodo! Thank god you dont own a HGAG turbo, cant wait till ken gets to c this!! Ken would have a new apprentice, if not for the colour...

But seriously Welcome to the forum!!

Frodo a donation would be nice,along with a sticker on the car.Welcome to the club mate. a few deep breaths on me for that new car smell.

He's only just got here and your already hitting him up.

alxr6t,why dont you lead by example

vik

Give us a bit of time to get on top of the car expenses (rego, insurance, tinting) and I'll see what I can do Vik.

Maybe I should explain the name ...

I should say I'm not a huge lord of the rings fan.

Saw the first movie, hated it. Didn't go back to the others.

I'm originally from Bris Vegas and the local paper up there, The Courier-Mail, was running a web cam on some Peregrine Falcon that had nested on a city building and was attacking hapless pedestrians. They dubbed the bird Frodo and the website frodocam. Among the information on the site was that peregrine falcons can fly as fast as a formula one car.

So ... a low-flying, high-speed falcon named Frodo. It was a natural. It became the nickname I gave my car while waiting for it to arrive (which it did this week), and has kind of stuck.

Sorry to disappoint Tolkein fans.

What example? I didn't try to set any example. I just don't think that's the best way to kick off a new guys posts.

Not everybody has spare cash to donate. As I stated in another topic: "...I think Chris has done an outstanding job with this forum and I love it, the people and the info that is available at a keystroke is great! And once Christmas is behind me I'll make a donation in January, club or not. Chris".

Frodo, I would like to apologise for my OUTBURST you see here, it's a great site, with great members. I hope this doesn't put you off. Sorry!

Frodo,

You have a fearsome and terrible task ahead of you. You may take companions (passengers) on your quest ... some might say ... a fellowship ...

You are entrusted with the dire task of driving your beloved T (whatever colour ) with skill, grace and elegance. You must uphold the name and legend that is the BA XR6 Turbo.

You and your fellowship must make your way through all (non-Ford) opposition to Mount Doom where you must destroy forever the (leaking oil) ring of the dark lord GM.

Having completed this, you will be forever enshrined in the annuls of XR6T history. You will become a member of the first order of the Cult of the Turbo XR.

... btw, whatyawearn' ...
