Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message Top Gear Is Dead,
Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,
Let The Stig wear black racing gloves.

It was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that Top Gear would last for ever: I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now: put out every one;
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood.
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

Great stuff... 👍

Also, since this isn't the first time, you're pretty much saying W.D. Auden's "Funeral Blues/Stop All the Clocks" can be adapted to any given situation?... :sly:

I forget what situation I used it for last time.

Don't count on me for that. Only after the first stanza I recognized the poem and got reminded you had used it once before...


EDIT: Remembered just now that it was WSC related (can't recall when you posted it though)

Same specs from the end of last season?
 
If the Mustang has the spec it did at the end, I may have to keep it. Not sure though. If someone wants me as a teammate to compete for the PEC title or better banter with a different car, I'd be happy to swap
 
Me? Although still don't know what the GTO line up or specs are. And will there be yet another walkover by one car?
There wasn't walkover last season, and I did reveal line up but to be fair it's got kinda lost in the thread, so... Cobra CL, 250GTO, Corvette C3, Alpine, Plymouth Cuda.
