I see what you're doing here Red.. Using your tunes from PITS!!

 

[yogi bear]

@Mike Lobban the above link not working for me.

That's because it's not a link....it's red noses suggestion. He just wanted it to look official.

 

[Gr8_Lakes]

Nope, you choose which one you want to drive.......all we are doing this week is pulling a name from a hat!

My suggested combo:

1966 Ford Mustang RTR TransAm & 1967 Ford MkIV at Road America.

Ok, fair enough Group A gets the MkIV, Group B gets the Mustang RTR.

 

[davidt33]

Can I pick the names from the hat? *evil laugh*

 

[Mike Lobban]

Link is broken above, oh well......check it out..this guys a genius.

You say us older bobs are confusing..... you kept referring to some green line in the tachometer in the hood to David, supposed to tell if his gas pedal was working fine. There is no tachometer mounted in the hood on that car, in fact none of the cars have a tach in the hood. I can only recall the 68 firebird has a tachometer in the hood.

 

[SGETI]

Bear you crack me up

Not Hood, but HUD, Heads Up Display.

 

[SAMHAIN85]

Wow!!! The 300Z at Zhuhai was almost my pick! I just didn't come up with a compliment car, and moved on to the Mustang. I almost chose Watkins, but the Mark IV couldn't really stretch it's legs there.

Congrats!! I was hoping it would be that one. 👍

 

[GTLehman]

Suh-weet!
I'd like to think the academy, all the little people and my cat for making this moment possible. This is, like, a compliment I'll remember as long as I can.
At least until MONDAY!

 

[Gr8_Lakes]

The main reason I wanted I wanted to pick the 300Z - I'm a big Paul Newman fan (as @yogi bear knows). This week, Paul Newman has been given a new honor. He's been inducted into the Sebring Hall of Fame. Much cooler than all the Hollywood awards if you ask me!

And I love this car. If any of you haven't heard, Adam Corolla started buying Paul Newman's old race cars when he heard how much Steve McQueen's cars were selling for at auction. Genius!!! The coolest part: Adam Corolla actually raced (drove) the 300Z after he restored it.

 

[RobbiefromBC]

FINALLY!!!!

Lol. My wife wants to know why she didn't get thanked for picking your name!

Love the commentary! The off centre wheel would drive me crazy

FINALLY!!!!

One of the first things I thought of was how happy you would be!

The best way to convince someone the world isn't flat, is ask them to take a walk with you to find the edge.

 

[sgohsixthree]

If the cars racing at Sebring right now are too new and fancy for you BoBs... here is another race more your speed. Live too.



Pretty sure thats a 69 Camaro for @yogi bear . And its snowing!

If you're going to comment at least educate yourself first! There is no edge, its a wall of ice!

Moved to next TOPP

 

[davidt33]

And please post them quick. tick tock tick tock.....

.....And one more thing. Clear weather will do just fine. Cars with no windshield and wipers not make for rain. They does call them open wheel for a reason.

*hits and runs*

 

[GTLehman]

D'oh! Thanks you very much Mrs. Aero! You have made a few of us very happy!!

Well, it IS England, so cold, overcast, spring conditions is a good place to start. However, guv'(bwahahaaa), keep in mind that it often rains in England. Randomly. (bwahahahahahahahaaaaaa). And recently they've had a lot of snow (ahhhh-ha-ha-haaaaaa). But the sun always seems to peek out when you least expect it! (Bwahahaah He's maaaad!) And of course I'll be throwing coconut shavings and seashells from my car, sooo.. (MAAAAD I SAY!!!)

So yeah, plan on a spring day in the UK mate. It's a one day festival so the first race will be after breakfast and the final race should be done by tea time. Sans coconuts...

You can run David, but you can't hide...

 

[RobbiefromBC]

These cars in the rain are a dream to drive anyways. Skinny tires, high tire pressures, flat out!
