...LOL... why the F in particular?

oohhh...i'm loving the livery on that ferrari...

yep yep...probably...we have two silvers and one beige neda

yeah machang.....speed is not my prority anymore either,i just enjoy the ride now... even the speeds i quoted from the bikes were only short bursts....you come in from a corner carying as much speed and let her loose in a familiar straight on the puttlam road for 15 seconds...that's it even that was to check out what the newly accuired hardware can do.....havent done it ever since

hehe....not really......unless one of you buggers have lucas as a middle name the scary thing about that list is that most of it fits me old man like a glove...specially the "you have a T-series windscreen under your bed and other newly chromed bits there as well and your spouse doesn't complain"...the guy right now has a T windscreen under his bed and the chromed bits of the A under his bed.... frequently he pulls them from under the bed and carreses them lovingly and tenderly for hours on end...and the weird thing is me mom is fine with it :lol:

damn dude!...hitting 190 that close to colombo?.....i'm crazy as hell but even i wouldnt attempt that,specially in a vios...

ah yes..the shop by no limit right...i can reccomend that place too...very reasonable prices.

.

yes on my part the "not in the blood" thng was a bad argument and a childish example...but what i was trying to say is that those claims by channel 4 is probably exaggerated..... i seriosly do not think that those horrible accusations are true. if you read through my recent posts in them "political threads" you'll find that our minds are quite on the same track and i agree on most of what you have said.

not really...when a sri lankan living abroad asks us what's happening...it's almost our duty to keep him informed

how about MM organization?...not sure about their service,but the ads say they have genuine parts MM Organization 511 Prince of Wales Avenue Colombo 14 Sri Lanka 0094 610505 0714 723308 0094 4 724395

it was a part of BBC 1 radio show machan...here are all three not as hilarious as yours but funny enough

FRONTIER AUTOMOTIVE (PVT) LTD 271, Galle Road, Colombo 3. Tel: 4714510, 4720710 don't know if they have a website yet...gummy?devZ?

sure...i'm all for helping start something that'll break the monotony of everyday life...god only knows how much we need more places of entertainment here.

yep i agree dont go for those high end stereo shops...but dont go to those chaater joints either...some in between shop will sort your player out...worse that could happen is you'll need to replace the lens or the motor...

jellyfish already posted this link in mani's thred

not a big F1 fan,but watch it occassionally nontheless....SBK and motoGP are more my cuppa tea :banana_hitit:

ROFLMAO...very funny have you heard the shaggy prank calls?...those are hilarious as well

i'm not being racist...but i highly doubt the army is letting the corpses rot or are raping the women...it's just not in our blood. then again channel four is one of the "cheap" tv chennels in the uk,they're probably trying to increase it's viewers by spining the stories and taking the side of the underdog..infact thet's what most media organisations do... yep,we need some people who can represent us on the international scene...those old geezers they sow on TV make the matters even worse...we need someone who can slip his way outta tight situations with the country's dignity intact...maybe it's not a bad idea to teach mervyn silva some english and let him go talk to the international media,that guy could weasel his way out of anything

okay problem solved...thanks guys
