Default Hi everyone...

It's gonna be hard to string this together for it to all make sense

My name's Chris and my wife's called Helen ... we live in a beautiful part of the county of Northumberland in the UK (Great Britain) ...

Why'm I here ?? ... long story ... I've worked with my great friend Karl (Forestry) for years now and he's always told me about his sister who lives in Utah. Never mind, I was sitting watching TV last night when a blond-haired girl started waving from our front gate ... I didn't recognise her, but waved back, (wish I understood how to work your emoticons on here)

She appeared again a minuite or so later waving so I asked the wife to go and see what was happening ... we welcomed her in with her brother hiding just over our fence

It's one of your members' wives off here ...FPI421Vette So all of us hadda beer and got talking 'bout cars and she mentioned this place and how popular it was so that's why I'm here !!!

I've always liked 'Vettes so don't all fall on the floor laughing ... I've a gen 2 Ford Probe ... some of us in this country can't get much over stock (164 bhp) ... the best mine's ever seen was 189bhp ... it's had so much work done to it as well. Reason I joined here was to share knowledge on engine mods and see if we can all help each-other The other reason was to show you some lovely places around where we live ...

I dunno how you lot've got so much bhp ... well I do but it just upsets me ... I'm stuck with FWD and a 2.5 Mazda V6 engine and you lot've got engines that can only be dreampt of ??

If you wanna check our site out ...go to www.nwprobe.com ... you'll all be really welcome and see some pics of what we're all 'bout

Mods .. I apologise now if I've done anything wrong in this post or the pic doesn't work my car...

First thing, fix that water leak. It looks like a creek running out of your Probe cooling system.
