Yikes, Brenda. Get thee your big dog back soon.
And, I still refuse to believe that Schumy is retiring. Just refuse. It's not happening. However, I am excited to see what things are like next year, even though Alonso will likely be the next Shumy and dominate the season.
See, I don't think so. I don't see the McLaren's being all that more reliable next year. And they are losing the wicked cool color scheme too. Which has nothing to do with anything but I liked the silver and the Viking horns.
You know what an enduro is? I'm speechlees. They are so much fun. Absolutely love them. A true testament to a driver's ability and a car's quality.
My dad did a lot of SCCA racing while I was growing up. I loved going with him and have done a few Bonderaunt classes. Actually his old car owner was at Portland this year. He owns an Atlantic team and so we hung out in his transporter a bit. He's got one of my dad's old cars still in his race shop, I think the S2000 but maybe a Formula Ford. I come by my madness through genetics.
IMSA kicks off first with the 24 hours of Daytona. and HSR doesn't end until December at Sebring :D
Daytona is the *best*! First race of the season and lots of drivers pop in from other series. Love. It.
Yes, F1=Formula 1.
Not that I know what it is, really -- more that it exists.
Well, you at least recognized that F1 is Formula 1 which means you're ahead of many. :)
and ... is F1 Formula One? Not that I know what it is, really -- more that it exists.
Yes, Formula One. It's very technical, crazy expensive, wildly political and really so much fun to me.
eta: How much do I love that we can have this xpost?
Presented without comment:
HOST: I’m curious, have you ever googled anybody? Do you use Google?
BUSH: Occasionally. One of the things I’ve used on the Google is to pull up maps. It’s very interesting to see — I’ve forgot the name of the program — but you get the satellite, and you can — like, I kinda like to look at the ranch. It remind me of where I wanna be sometimes.

Boy, that Danica Patrick sure can drive, she says, wanting to be one of the cool kids.
psst, connie is a cool kid. pass it on.
Danica has brought a *lot* of attention to the sport and that is never a bad thing. She's driving for Michael Andretti next year which should be a good thing as well.
done a few Bonderaunt classes.
::sigh again:: And, you know Boundurant, too!!!

Me too. We're an entire racing family (though mom hasn't in awhile). HSR Daytona is in a few weeks. :D And, no open wheels in our family. House Rules.

Oooo. Have you ever been to the 12 Hours of Sebring? Another awesome race.
Wasn't Danica the one where one of the spoilsports said it was unfair to allow her to drive because she was so tiny she got a weight advantage? I wonder what he said was the reason he was beaten by all the men who finished in front of him.

Heh. If that were true, racecar drivers would all look like jokeys.
