Instead of hoping for results, pray to your gods for no lag/slow down!!

Daytona is not an overly tough track. Cape Ring & Trial Mtn are tough tracks.

Pagey- Not at all bro, if you can get a podium on the rest and hope that I do badly you still have an outside chance. I could disconnect or commit a heinious crime too! Its not over until the fat lady sings!

Rich- I am praying for that man. Hoping we dont have to make any culls for S3 (trial mountain is my favourite for winning)

Daytona is tough in the respect its hard to get the right line consistently for 50 laps as the track is very wide in places

Austin, TX "circuit of Americas" is supposed to have multiple lines. Like Homestead-Miami Dade.

Should be a cool race.

 

[berty1979]

Are they actually able to have F1 their now? I read that there was problems locally.
Its a discrace that there is no F1 in the US, I am sure it would catch on as you guys love a bit of showmanship and loud fast cars

 

[Rich S]

Yup, go to the website; its official. November 14-18 or something.

 

[berty1979]

Thats great man. Just a few years of that and I think F1 will take off, the next thing you need is a good driver from the US so people have got someone to support.

 

[IMMORTALPILOT]

The slipstream is heavy hard here.

 

[berty1979]

What do you mean Tony? You mean it is hard to break?

 

[IMMORTALPILOT]

I mean when i have slipstram i drive 40 kmh more the normell thats heavy.

It would be nice to have a couple US formula 1 drivers, there were only four I have heard of back in the day!

Steve Speed?
Who else?

 

[runfast1]

Steve Speed?

Scott speed, Roger penske, & Andretti's

 

[berty1979]

Ah scott. Couldnt remember but I think I saw him crash once ar Montreal.

 

[runfast1]

Ah scott. Couldnt remember but I think I saw him crash once ar Montreal.

Yeah Scott only raced 28 races.
Penske only raced two grand prix races
Michael Andretti raced 13 races and 1 podium
Mario Andretti had 12 wins 19 podiums and 1 championship in 1978

I think Marco Andretti would be a good candidate for an American F1 driver

 

[berty1979]

Is that the son?
Mario sounds like he was an awesome driver.

Yeah that's Michael's son who races Indy cars! Mario is a legend.

I want to go to the F1 race in Texas, waiting for ticket info! Should be a great experience! I remember going to
My first NASCAR race at Daytona sitting six rows up from the fence and when 36,550 hp go by at 200 + mph i almost pissed myself from excitement lol

 

[berty1979]

Haha, it must be an awesome thing to see and hear. I hope you get a ticket, the track looks awesome, who would you be shouting for?

 

[Ellis]

He'd be drunk. So it would be go errrberraberdapogyheffther *falls over*

 

[berty1979]

naturally. Americans and Australians are not allowed through the main gate unless their blood alchohol level is over 65%!

 

[runfast1]

I'm cheering for McLaren drivers, Lewis Button & Jenson Hamilton! Lol

 

[Rich S]

Yeah Scott only raced 28 races.
Penske only raced two grand prix races

I know Marco Andretti hates F1. Remember reading in an interview that Michael told him that the F1 team he was on was messing with the electronic aids on the car to make him look back so they could fire him for somebody else who was cheaper (lower salary.) Dont remember what team....I think it was Williams?

 

[berty1979]

Runfast- Pick jensen, he is a gentleman but still manages more overtakes than Hamilton without crashing into everyone!

Rich- It wouldnt surprise me

 

[Pagey279]

Jensen all the way, watching the review of the F1 season reminded me how much i dislike hamilton!!

Oh yeah Brett, i might be moving to Bangor

 

[berty1979]

How come Pagey? You going to uni there?

 

[Pagey279]

Well it might be down as one of my choices. Whats it like?

 

[runfast1]

I like Jensen better

We need a good GOOD driver to race for USA again! I think USA will have a team one day hopefully, we have a track so why not a team!

 

[berty1979]

Pagey- I have heard its a great uni for an education and pretty sweet for a night out more importantly
There is Time nightclub which has some good live bands and normal clubbing fri, sat. I think there is another club but its been ages since I was there.
What are your other choices?

SM- Let me have your setup for Daytona bro

 

[Pagey279]
