  • Spotlight on......Rippers

    Hello all,

    In order to get to know a little more about people on this board I've decided to do "Spotlight Interviews" on a weekly (or so) basis.

    If you have any comments on the Spotlight process itself - PM me, if you have any comments about the "current" Spotlight Interview or want to ask that person any questions, just reply to the relevent thread.

    As this is the first interview, it seems only right to ask the site creator, Rippers, to go first...

    Was your wife watching over your shoulder as you typed this.

    From your current cars I can tell you're a sports car connoisseur. Have you had any other sports cars during your time?
