Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Reality is setting in

[Grahame Reinthal (grahame]

And what about quick and simple distributor timing - by turning the dizzy clockwise till the motor spluttered, anti-clockwise till it spluttered, then 1/3^rd of the way back.  Or balancing carbies by listening through a piece of garden hose.

I'm getting old...

I long for the days of Carburetors and point ignitions you could set with a match book cover in a pinch.

Hell, today you'd have a problem finding the match book...

Cars now come with ABS, traction control and an alphabet soup of electronic nannies to keep the average owner that has piss poor SA or reflexes out of the armco.  Self cleansing Ferraris ended with the F40.

The 6 speed cars being discounted 

OMG 

Hell is freezing over 

The 575 was designed around the F-1 tranny not the 6 speed 

But you can’t fix stupid 

The remaining 6 speeds from the 550 run were thrown in for good measure on the 575

Yet the dolts out there think they are worth big bucks 

Go figure

And get this the tranny is terrible too boot 

It makes the 308 early transmissions look like Honda’s!

And all you see is clutch replace at .... miles 

Most of the idiots out there who own the slush box can’t drive them

Aviation is self cleansing 

How come cars aren’t?
