Questionable expression

Post by Sporttunergtv6 »

Lately, there has been alot of talk about some pretty sexy automobiles that for some reason require volunteering "a left nut" to own, drive, etc.

My question is why the left nut?! I mean the right is theoretically just as good... Is this an alfa transaxle thing? Do our Alfa's officially have rights to the right nut? If so I was not aware. My girlfriend has both of mine in a vise, so i could not give of them voluntarily (even if I wanted to) without filling out a shit load of paperwork to get my nuts a mere day pass. Better I say(!), at least i will have them for when i need to late brake pass some boner in turn one.

And where is Jim K? He has tested the v6 alfa many a time. Did he have to give a left nut for all those camshafts? Maybe he could shed some light on our collective left nut.

Please, Nuts Abound, Lets hold on to em :lol:

I think subconsciously the male mind is happier to part with the left nut as anything associated with right is always more valuable. As most people are right handed and right footed it is more common to say this. My question is to all you you left handers out there, is it easier to say I would give my right nut ? If not this theory sucks !

V with all the s&*t my girlfriend has given me of late I am inclined to feel quite partial to donating the left one for a nice modded Ferrari F40. :wink:

I was under the impression that the "left" or "right" related to the thread of the nut :roll:
