8-)Not really car related at all, but I'd like to thank my pal Rob Norman for being, well for just being himself really. He's 16, and has the mind and sense of someone far older. I'm 33, so a lot of people think it unusual that we are such good pals, but as I never quite grew up and he's older than his years the gap isn't so great. A few nights ago we were chatting and I was very upset about something, and to be frank was starting to loose control. He put me on the straight and narrow, and for that and so many other things, I want to thank him publically. Don't underestimate this guy, he truly is a star. There are so many horror stories about teenagers going off the rails,drugs,mugging old ladies ect, but you don't often get to hear about the good ones. Well,here is a teenager that isn't merely good, he's great and deserves to do well. His knowledge and love of cars, particularly Skodas is awe inspiring too. I could fill this forum with praise for this guy, but I'll stop for now.
8-)THANKYOU ROB

Wob is a good lad.
I pointed him here. Known him since he first got his Rapid and started fixing it up with his dad the first time.
When he first mentioned his "Girlfriend" I thought, Poop, thats another one gone. As soon as he is old enough to get a license she will have him in a Corsa/Punto/Fiesta. But fair play, he seems to have pulled a good one, and educated that Skodas are cool because it is a Corsa/Punto/Fiesta.
Did I mention he was a good lad.
I know of one other like him, Marko Cosic. He subscribed to the UK.rec.cars.modifications newsgroup at 14 and said he was building a turbo landrover as a project and everyone luaghed (cynical bunch of bastards we are). As the years went by all these photos would appear, firstly attempts at turboing the original lump, then buying a rover 800 turbo to strip and trnasplant because his dad drove an 800 turbo too.
Eventually, at 17, he drives a mental but legal open top rollcaged offroaded turbo Landy on the road. Him and his dad fully restored the body and chassis and modified it for a more comfortable userfriendly daily driver interior.
Another Rob there, and just like Rob, a good lad.
