No. But I did notice that Famine locked down the Senna content thread that was exploding.

That's what the "plan" was. Nothing yet as Dragon said, believe that there will be another one started quick style if it does drop and a moderator hasn't unlocked the original thread. We are all hoping dabyned, we are all hoping.

Another hope is to sometime soon be able to find time to get back in with SNAIL, it's been too long!! :banghead:

I wish they can get around to vettel Vettel's car so he can start vetteling everyone again like he vetteled them last year!

I don't think anyone is going to be able to compete with the Mercedes power unit this year. Hamilton was driving with one eye closed and Smiley Ricciardo couldn't get past him. You could see how much faster the Mercedes was compared to the RB when they went through the tunnel; the RB would get right on his bumper coming out of Portier, but would get dropped on the way to the Nouvelle Chicane.

C.B. Hamilton had tears in his eyes because he couldn't catch Rosberg.... I love it that they are allowed to race each other. Otherwise this would have been one heck of a boring F1 season

Hamilton was cool as the "kid" in F1....now he looks to feel that he is "owed" the win.
It might be that he is blinding himself like a deer in the head lights...with those "are those real" diamond ear studs ! :yuck:

Agreed. No doubt about his pace but he does the sulk thing too often for my liking.

The question should be "Do real racers wear diamond ear studs?" :lol:

Only when they drive. I'm sure Arai or Shoei custom form the ear pads to accommodate the REAL racers....

Nah - the format - 19E - # # (Letter) is Army.

The Marines use a 4 digit. Tankers are like 1800 or 1801 or something.

I'm also a non-fan of the Hamilton's whines. I understand most of the high level F1/NASCAR/whatever drivers don't think incidents or failures are their fault, or they may sometimes blame mechanics, managers, or whatever, but Hamilton's persistent whining - even while being the points leader for the season - is an example of a poor winner. Blech.

I'd tell him to 'man up' but .... Suck it up, buttercup.
 
And so, now we have a couple more SNAIL Military Vets;

I'm thinking a Veteran's day event. We got a few months for that though.

We didn't race this past Sunday, so if you're including that in your 2, it's only 1, thus you will not be moved to part-time (assuming you don't missing the final week of the May season this weekend.

Mitsubishi 3000
Dealership 276HP/454PP
Oil Changed 329HP/462PP
 
Today I went to the Volvo dealership to get an estimate to some preventative maintenance for A6 (timing belt; $1700 at the VW dealership); to which they told me the mechanics did not have the correct tool :irked: WTH I've been taking my car there for the last 3 years.
Instead of finding interesting Volvos I found some more interesting specimens (also in the shop 2 Ferraris TestaRossa; Stingray, old Jaguar):

Cobra (Replica)


From I distance I thought this was a Fiat. Never seen such a Beemer before




Lotus Esprit




370Z Nismo




Just cause I felt like a Kid in the candy store I stopped at the Nissan Dealership and they also had 1 that look just like above just a few Kilos more expensive. Then I stopped at the Fiat Dealership and test drove this:



I cannot believe that 160 ponies could be so much FUN and that I fit so comfortably as I am over 6 feet; I don't think the game gives it enough of is essence; I pushed it to 100mph in no time in a piece of the freeway while passing 18 wheelers like weaving the thread through a silk. Traffic was not heavy and just separated enough to give the sales manager a good scare! LOL.
