Re: Some amateurs just sicken me.....

Heck, I outrun Sidewinder heat seeker rockets, only the SR-71 outruns me (
as long as I have fuel ). I forgot to add that someday I have to drop the
gas tank and replace the fuel pickup as when it reachs the 1/4 tank of gas
level, it will not pick up the fuel. And the gas gage can't be trusted
either.
