Yep, and he's right too.

Yes, pity that the fact that the Maestros did see it blows a
damned great hole in the claim that its a Supra problem tho Trev.

Then there is the TINY matter that its even seen between a pair of Spirits.

And the fact that a tiny change in the timing of the Binkley
behind the Spirit fixes the problem for ever too. Just a tad
hard to point the finger at the Supra in that case Trev.

Not to a USR Sportster V34 tho Trev. Funny that.
