@Alex ONeill - here is the majority of my model/toy car collection. Not a lot, but the ones that are near and dear to me - particularly the cars of Lauda, Senna, Hunt, McLaren and JPS Lotus. And a few choice Ferraris, some of which were driven by a Canadian that certain members of this group know not of. I'm by no means a completest, and also the collection has been weened down a bit over the years, and most of it I've had for about 20 years.
The Lola Haas Indycar of Mansell bears the signature of Il Leone himself. I went to Laguna Seca in '93 and a group of fans descended upon him after quali. I was holding it straight in front of him but he ignored it! Finally I said ' please Nigel, it's for my mom, she's British.' He then took it and signed it. For years after that it was in my mom's China cabinet until she passed away a few years ago.
As a side note, that weekend I was also able to get Fittipaldi to sign my copy of his book, and Mario Andretti to sign my ticket stub!
And then my pin-up art. I freaking love pin-up art...

Annnd, what is Red's combo exactly?
 
aerolite
Yeah, I really wish Red had been a little more clear :D
Unlike Bear, only about 8 replies before we were able to nail down what he wanted.
Then there’s Colts, what you see for his combo is the result of about 42 replies, and it’s still not totally clear what he wants us to do :banghead: :boggled: :D

So what's Red's combo? Stop stalling!!!!!!!! lol

No really @aerolite ... you didn't post Reds combo. You posted a broken image no one can see. Surprised you dont you have Bear tech support on speeddial.:lol:

I figured everyone was being a smartass because Red is thorough!
Well that is strange, it shows up perfectly in my post when I look at it, and Mike didn't say anything about not being able to see it either?
Must not want to cross the border. lol.

Hey @Rednose58 can you try posting it please.

I just got off the phone with Bear Tech. He said it is probably because you are linking to an image in your private conversation, which you, Red and Mike are a part of, and we are not. You'll have to save the image and reupload it to your post. :D

We've done 60 minute races before haven't we?.. one good thing about that length is less crashing. There is no need to try and get to the front as soon as possible, you have time to settle into a rhythm. Push too hard, too early and your gonna burn your tires up. Tiirrres cole, tiirres win a race. Oh and in case you didn't notice, I've put the A group in the slower Porsche... bahahahahaaa.....bahahahahaaa... bahahahahaaa!!!
 
I'm not a big Twitter or Instagram follower, but I do read a lot of content from Jordan Taylor - driver of the Wayne Taylor #10 Konica Minolta DPi car. He's very funny and extremely creative/imaginative. Here's a little Instagram post he made to give you guys a taste. His stories about strangers sitting next to him on flights are hilarious, and his alter-ego "Rodney Sandstorm" is pretty entertaining too. If you have some free time, it's some good fun.
