If you haven't got 2nd gear by the time the lights go green, then you've made a bad start.

Re: my non-Porsche picture of the day
That picture of the Disco Volante is stunning Paul - never realised how much the E-Type FHC (& D-Type/XK SS before it) must have been influenced by it ...

By the way, Ferrari is Italian for 'iron worker'. The English translation is Smith. So all them medallion men have done their money on Smith 250 GT Lusso.
