Well I still have my stupid grin every time I drive my Bulldog and that is 23 years from when I first drove it on the road, so I know that grin removal is well nigh impossible. It can only be replaced by the "Scared s&^%less" look when you try the performance out to (or over) your or the car's limit for the first time.

You really should get your carbs set up properly Les it ain't right having to pull a tanker around with the Haldane.
