Gentlemen,

I understand that there are a few "non-believers" amongst the great and the good out there in Forum (didn't that used to be a "Gentlemans" journal?) Land.

To "encourage" you to cease worshiping false idols I submit the following for your delight and edification.

Here beggineth the lesson...

"Here is a quote from my award winning article 'Ceramic revolution'. I think it may be of interest...................................

I was having Al fresco lunch with Porsche R & D Director Helmutt Schlapper. Mid summer, the delicate scent of wild flowers blending perfectly with the subtle aromas of our open bottle of Riesling. A buxom blonde haired beauty gliding towards our table holding two massive plates of sauer kraut. 'Her Journoman, zey are big gazunkers no?'...... 'Actually Helmutt, I was looking at those plates', 'imagine disks that size and that weight! AND the ceramic construction would have fantastic heat dissipating qualities!!' 'Vy Jounoman, you are a geeneuus!, I vil gooo back too de factowy stvaight avay'!!

I put some moves on that waitress, what a night.

.A week later at the test track, I drive the first PCCB equipped car. 'Initial impressions..........ABS triggered as I turn in with big understeer for sure, soon the moment passes, she settles as I hook up to the power, squatting like a ***** on an MP's trumpet' ...........the straight, 150, 180, 200 scenery blurs, the braking zone, still on the power, flat, 200 meters, 150, 100, 75, still flat - the technicians open mouthed,...............at 25 meters I put on the stoppers..... She stops dead. As my mind pulls itself from the 5th dimension, I am aware of tapping on the door. It's Helmutt. I get out and we both stare at the discs, the yellow callipers gleaming triumphantly in the evening sunlight. I turn to him, 'Helmutt, I pushed those babies lap after lap to the limit,' I lean forward and touch a disc with my forefinger, It's cold already. I am aware of birds calling as the sun sets, they know that history has just been made. Tears of joy are falling from Helmutt's face, I too shed a tear 'and do you know what is even more amazing........you can still see the willow pattern'

Amen.

 

ah luv mah PCCB!!!

anything Journoman [wotaguy] invented has to be a good idea, but boy i wish i'd seen those gazunkers
