JO-KER.. i can TOTALLY relate when people come up asking me for expertise on "how do i make a successful youtube channel" or "how should I run mclaren" or "how can i design a successful pure sports car with a central driving position?" I mean, after awhile doling out the free advice just sucks the soul out of you.. do you think i just learned this **** on a car forum people?.. geez.
so yea, lets keep our arrival to Geneva Auto show quiet. now, on a serious note. The reason i can't come early is that beginning of that week i have to pick up some car or other from some car company or other.. i don't know what it is.. but I think it's a manual naturally aspirated car with the engine in the wrong end.. it will take me awhile to get back down to Geneva because i don't know how to drive a stick.. so will make slow progress staying off the highways and hitting ALL the twisty country roads. If you want to grab a coffee on Route Napoleon that's cool too.. otherwise we can meet later in Torino where I can show you some one-off concept cars i'll be doing some calibration testing for again... i may even get you a passenger ride if you'd like.
if ALL of that fails.. the interviews, the coffee, the test-ride.. then ****.. fine then.. see you at smokies. But no jokes and no selfie requests please.. I'm kind of big deal you know (within the confines of my house) .

joker, look forward to see you again!
Selfies are out of control AP and Walliser wouldn’t stop asking about taking pics with Trakcar but, with the interwebs being the NSA tool of choice I just couldn’t allow it.

Well, since you clearly aren't cut out for the task of piloting this said wrong ended engine car to Geneva, I suppose I can help a friend out and take the burden upon myself.
