If F-1 offered some real competitive racing it might be worth going to see. The technology in the cars is impressive but the actual racing is far from it.

Yeah i wasn't sure how to spell out, the high
pitch of a 2.4L V8 engine @ 19,000 RPM.

And YCL airport well i guess when you mix Politics
and Crooks together, its never good for airport
specially for a place like Charlo.
Cheers!

I hope you're not a fan of NASCAR because I'm ready to unleash on you :wink:

If you are a NASCAR fan...tread carefully. I got a 1978 Pontiac tailgate pick-up truck full of "Brutal" fer yer arse!

However, you are half right....no one can compare to the fluid natural skills of Ayrton Senna (da Silva). It was like poetry in motion watching him race. Like the worlds most moving song on slick tyres bending around the corners and hairpins like a chorus complimenting the verse and change up in a song.

The only thing better than Nascar is vintage Nascar. Unleash the "Brutal"

Actually I am a Nascar fan... and a World of Outlaw sprint car fan, and a Late Model dirt track fan and a fan of basically any form of racing that is close. (passes for the lead that actually happen ON the track and not in the pits.) Sorry but other than from a technological point of view, F-! is about as exciting as watching paint dry.

Lewis.....what WERE you thinking????

Great to see DC back on the podium!!!!

A one, two for BMW! And folks say there's no competition? But hey, I've been a fan since the greatest of them all....Jimmy Clark!

I am NOT a Kimi fan. I always pull for Massa. I think he's the one with the talent. BTW, birdog, can you name the chap in the photo below?

Knew ya could!

P.S. it isn't Jimmy.
