Talking Congrats to Carlos- 'DXB' now in 'Urban Dictionary'!

Just a quick note to say congratulations to Carlos, whose 'DXB' comments have now propelled the term into the 'real world' 'Urban Dictionary'.

A massive 'thanks' to a certain individual for providing the information.

Because the DXB's torque makes the world spin backwards, lessor cars are simply pushed away .. like on one of those flat escalators you see in large european airports.

I'd put some pics up of me in my bimmer in the hopes of gaining your level of fame, but 'The HZU' doesn't really have the same ring to it as 'The DXB'

Brilliant!

Well done Carl.

Quote from the Blog Will Posted:

"I heard that if two remapped 335d’s have a tug of war with an unbreakable rope, the rope snaps and the universe ceases to exist after they come on boost?
Is this true?"

Must be one of your mates from PH Carl?
