  1. Those TT riders are a different breed. Balls of steel. Montreal weather is looking pretty supple. Will be nice to escape from the blast furnace for a while.
  2. If we are posting vids, we can't overlook Jarno's 2004 pole lap.
  3. So hilariously awkward.
  4. Is #uvaldestrong trending yet or do we have to wait a few days first? I think uplifting prayers, some hashtags, maybe a colored ribbon is all that will be done about this.
  5. So out pay the NRA when donating to the GOP senators then. If money is the only thing that motivates them, aside from staying in office.
  6. C'mon meteor.
  7. I feel like that drone would be better if it was placed static above say turn 9. So we can see the cars from above tackling a high speed corner. Also, would really love if that final chicane was gone. That final corner was a beast back in the day and if cars can follow now, maybe do away with the chicane.
  8. Ironically adding sandbags reduced porpoising?
  9. 260 total fatalities and counting. Those guys have balls for sure. That said, would love to get over there and check it out during the TT. The racing not the balls.
  10. The funny thing is that Kelly McGillis doesn't look a whole lot better than chick Max.
  11. Yeah, I am starting to feel this way, but he's a nice kid and has the family heritage. Probably buys him some time. He doesn't have the worst driver as a teammate and the Haas isn't trash anymore either, so that ain't helping.
  12. 1. Suzuka 2. Monaco 3. Zandvoort or Austria I hear the facilities (bathrooms, food and beer stands) at Spa are just terribad, but the track is obviously epic.
  13. Picked up a 2020 M2 Competition, it's a fuckin blast to drive. Anyone driven one of these?
  14. Yeah, I like the Croft/Brundle pairing. I started to watch the Saudi race on F1 TV and noped out immediately. I can't do Buxton and Palmer (think it was Joylon, not sure). Also, what the hell happened to Haas in Melbourne?
  15. that would be gross weight. curb weight around 2800 like Anton said.
  16. Oh would you look at that, Purge time starts now and lasts five minutes.
  17. Would be interesting if they dropped that motor in a GR86.
  18. DPS trooper buddy of mine has responded to two heli crashes, both were Robinsons. He was probably one of the DPS guys at that Manor/Elgin crash site investigation.
  19. Some trees and places in the shade would be nice outside of the main grandstand.
  20. Agree, tacky is the correct word. They could've at least gone with the bayfront street circuit and had yachts in the bay rather than a pool.
  21. I'll allow it if there are topless hoors on the yachts.
  22. I feel like that is the first time I have seen one of the MGU-H's uncovered. Thanks for the pics. And related to ground effect cars, when they first debuted back in the late 70's or so. I remember them having the side skirts to "trap" the air under the car. They ended up having to run insanely strong, almost solid suspensions to keep the air trapped under there and thereby producing the downforce. Pretty sure the drivers were getting really jostled around in the car during the races. That led to the skirts and ground effect getting banned if I recall.
  23. Yeah, I can't see Haas staying up there as the big teams develop their chassis over the season. I hope McLaren can climb their way up from the bottom, I think they are capable. I have no idea if Aston Martin is capable, the are pretty to look at at least.
