What'd you mean mate? I even tryed looking up "Pettyness" in the dictionary, lol.

Red yaris 54: Sorry, i was not aware of that - Am new here :rolleyes:

Petty, picky, pedantic. The ridiculous "you have not paid to fund someones race car, so we will not let you mention that you have anything for sale in passing"

Its the pettyness that stops a good forum being one of the best :(
