Proud Dad moment...

[S2central.net]

My 7yr old helper was mucking in with the red car today after school. He hands me a new front brake disc and I ask him what he thinks the holes / vents are for...

Puzzled, he peers at it for a while and looks at where it sits on the bare hub. Then he says 'air' as he thinks out loud and continues with a slightly unsure 'to cool it down' - without a word prompting of from me - is the boy a natural or what

Bloody brainwashed

LOL - if all goes to plan... in 10yrs time he'll be arguing with me about boost control parameters and such

That is if petrol is still available then and we aren't expected to drive around in 'alloy air cars'

That or at 10 he'll announce that he wants to take up knitting, football or some equally useless pursuit

And learning to drive in a car that's older than he is!

And learning to drive in a car that's older than he is!

Hadn't thought of that one - heheh - wonder will a B3/B4 finally be sufficiently retro to be 'cool' in 10yrs time. Hard to imagine how shyte a new compact Audi will look and cost then. He'll probably rebel and want a Honda just to spite his oul sad Dad

Too far away to contemplate though - just glad he is taking an interest for now.
