Is it wrong or does it make me a bad person if I felt a little movement down there when those cows were dancing?

Deez would be able to answers that better than I. I forgot about that one. Absolutely hilarious!! Just goes to show the American dream can come true, any shape or form.

Grab those while you can pmax! Now's the chance you've been waiting for. I'm afraid though these won't work on your car either. It's too slow. They may be a nice addition to your car, but speedometer missing is good since your car won't go very fast or fast enough or even close. No boost gauge is good too since you only use your clock to tell you how long it takes you to get from point A to point B. Finally, if you do grab them, double check that you don't blow your motor on red line. Otherwise, enjoy having some, a couple faded looking Ruf gagues!

I think that owners of naturally aspirated 911s would be better served using a sundial, as opposed to a conventional clock, for measuring the time it takes to get somewhere!

It's true, yet for many it's all they've ever known so it's only pure ignorant bliss. Some others have that desire and urge to get out of the rut, but they don't have the means. They own their cars and must live with them now for better or worse. A Kiwi once told me, the only thing worse than being in a rut is to be six feet under it, that is, the rut.
