I would have thought a clackety noisy Ford or Volkswagen diesel would be more suited to tractor pulling.

Yeah i know that now!!! How disappointed was it that it was a real blokey thread..though you'd got into your sensitive sides and were concerned about those of us who thought their car would be a pulling magnet

Would stick and whip be in the same sentence if it was coming out of my mouth lol
