I need some Dramamine after watching that... In other news, I'm gonna try to make it this Sunday for Tsukuba.

In fairness, all of GTPlanet is a bit crickets lately (except for a few threads spewing forth endless hatred). Most of my watched threads have had little-to-no activity this week. There's just not much worth discussing or getting excited about right now, other than wondering when the hell we're going to get some fixes and content.
That's an understatement!

I probably shouldn't be crying after the performance I put in during Hobbsy's 450PP race there yesterday...

Ahem... I remember you sending me an invite to that a couple of weeks ago, and you got all butthurt (probably not just your feelings either) when I declined to go race karts instead. It's cool though, I'm sure everyone here will be accepting of your lifestyle choices.

Back in the day, yes. I still would have rooted for Ferrari though.
I'd tell you, but it's against AUP.

At least they probably don't try to kill you due to lazy engineering.

Definitely not, since they folded about 20 years ago.

Took some google translate but I finally got the wikipedia page. I love reading about stuff like this, it's interesting stuff! Have to say the finish isn't ... great. But considering the price I highly doubt they were THAT bad!

Honestly, the real reason Brandon is so down on American cars, GM cars especially, is because of this... This is a documentary about the town he lives in, a town that lost thousands of jobs and has seen immense economic decline due to the closure of several GM plants. It also documents the life of his brother Sammy Hawkins, who happens to be involved in what is essentially banger racing at the local speedway.

I'm about 5 minutes in and I'm still not sure if this is a serious documentary or if it's satirically taking the piss?
Also, your brother seems like a decent guy Brandon
.EDIT: 7 minutes in, this HAS to be a joke right?

Oh no, it's very serious... In fact, it was made in collaboration with HBO and was actually released on DVD.

LMAO!! Yep, it's the real deal dude. When I watched it I laughed and cried at the same time.
You can actually see my place of employment briefly as they're driving down the road. I used to be a photographer for a racing series that went to that track a few times a year, watching the crowd and fights in the pits was just as entertaining as the race. Oh, and there's a strip club right behind the turn 1 grandstands.......though I wouldn't recommend going. 
EDIT: Yep, on the very far right you can see a little window and that's the side of my building. We share the parking lot with the liquor store which is the big brown building.

What Hobbsy said,
You better not be thinking about getting that trophy Nap; I intend to win this points championship by means of crashing you into a wall if needs be, I'll then question your sexual preferences before getting drunk on moonshine and starting a fight with you and your family in the pits before the police arrest me.
(it was a good documentary 👍)
