week 1 driving skill competition - f40 @ suzuka

[LMP787B]

It isn't, however I'm seriously considering telling LMP787B to have a Sarthe event in the Fiat 500 '69

EDIT: Just added a rather sexy pic of the F40 at Suzuka to the times sheet. It's SO sexy you might just feint. True story

Wow just fainted and yeah fiat at le mans would be great fun

 

[NJ72]

Wow just fainted

I'm like Abraham Lincoln, me. I cannot tell a lie

 

[LMP787B]

I'm like Abraham Lincoln, me. I cannot tell a lie

Haha, so if you don't lie will the terms and conditions still apply like you mentioned earlier?

I'm like Abraham Lincoln, me. I cannot tell a lie

More like George Bush. Lol, check your dead presidents.

 

[NJ72]

More like George Bush. Lol, check your dead presidents.

ORLY?

I think you'll find it was George Washington actually dear sir!

It is often mis-quoted as 'Honest Abe' saying it, but twas infact George Washington who was quoted saying it in Weems' "The life of Washington" when talking about the cherry tree

The quote being

I cannot tell a lie, I did it with my little hatchet.

Need to un-muddle your Georges lol.

George Bush may well have said it though... probably as a joke talking about his son 'Dubya'

EDIT: Just noticed your reply LMP787B.

It's true, if you try and call the entry hotline you may still be charged and calls from mobiles will be considerably higher. Although, the disclaimer should also read that, should you manage to find the correct number to dial, I evidently haven't been secure enough with my mobile phone number...

@NJ72

Yes, George Washington did say it. (Hence "dead presidents")

But George Bush would screw up who said it.

Ahh, apologies, now I get what you meant I do that sometimes

although I am now outraged that you likened me to Bush...
