what have you used?

I used really strong velcro in the past, but don't like the extra thickness it causes, i.e: doesn't sit very flush is kinda raised from the panel its on.

What can i use thats really sticky, some kinda pads etc, do halfords sell this kinda stuff

you'll never guess

a CTR came flying up behind me, i waited till next runabout, went round it quickly in one of the best handling FWD cars ever, then i booted it, roared down the road.

looked back and it had vanished





i think he took a different exit on the roundabout to me
