Can he help with "Holy-shit-these-things-are-expensive-with -a-pretend-currency" ? :shh: :lolno:
Ive seen how these boards perform, the control, the sound, :thumbup: ..............the complication, the cost :'( ....................there's always a balance to be reached.

Herman I never thought I would find myself saying this but you are beginning to sound like a whinging pom :haha: :haha: :haha:
Buck up man think positively,
When the world is in as bad a state as it is right now how can things possibly get worse ?
On second thoughts would somebody pass me a box of Kleenex,
I do know I am getting stir crazy, I go to the garage, look at the bike, mutter, go indoors to listen to she who must be obeyed with her list of things that need doing,
She misses out the bit about hanging myself from the nearest lamp post,
I had always saved that up for senior politicians but even they seem unable to keep out of the way of the present unpleasantness so perhaps there really is something in the power of prayer :thumbup:
I suppose I could get the ladders out and clean the guttering,
With a bit of luck I might fall off the ladder and break my sorry neck, :'(
But enough of this there is the motor cycle GP and the Formula 1 and the Footie and the Rugger and my English Cricket team Dohh,
Anyone know where I can buy some loo rolls and a couple of litres of ice cream ?
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

Worse!!?..............when H/L become as complicated as Elmod or Clark.................thats worse............
Balance, its always a problem.
Between simple functionality, and outstanding performance & sounds.
Those top end boards do everything required, reallllllllllllly well.
Except they are expensive & complicated to get going & maintain going.

As for whinging Pom, I will save that for the cricket season, if there ever is one again :/
(notice I said Cricket-not Rugby) Thanks Eddie, hope the pay cut is a "pay-back". @)

Yep she is officially done!!!!!!! I might go back and add some mud but I’ll probably just play with it in the dirt lol. I decided on doing my panzer 4 with the ELMOD so next week I’m going to uninstall it from the Sturmtiger tiger and do my panzer 4 lol

I dare say your Tiger sounds as good as it looks. That jack looks real.
