One day last year, when half the forum was getting ready for the World Cup Final and the other half was preparing to avoid it, one Dutchman slipped in under the radar and casually started chatting.
He made his own introduction with one photo of himself and two pictures of his teenage Honda Civic! :pac: Then he went back to spamming the Den, making himself the 15th highest poster in the off-topic chat thread.
You'd think that with 901 posts in the forum in 10 months we'd have heard enough from him, but not so!
There's much more to the guy than his car and his fondness for chat. Over the next week we're going to meet the man behind the "H".
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, I present to you Midnight_EG!
This is the first Playpen thread we've had in a while. Let's make it a good one.

Where do you see yourself in ten years? Hopefully around cars for a living!
Do you like to plan things or are you more impulsive? If I have a big amount, I budget and plan purchases...if I have a small amount I splash it on the first shiny thing that makes me go faster0 -

.Banjo Fella wrote: »How do Go Faster Stripes work? Are they as good as Speed Holes? They stick on in such a way that the aerodynamics of the car is rapidly altered, creating a vortex behind the car due to the sudden addition of drag from the stickers making the body wider! Speed holes are better because cold air cools the car down more, so it gets in more gaps!
May or may not be bollox tbf
Do you have a favourite driving CD? What's on the tracklist, and what's your preferred volume and cruising speed for listening to it? The only soundtrack I need is the rasp of a Honda and the crack of VTEC
If that iconic scene from Psycho involved a sponge bath instead of a shower, would you have been more terrified by the stabbity-stab or the dabbity-dab? Never seen it0 -
