I loved the commercial and the game was the first interesting superbowl in a long time. The score was so low not because the offences couldn't get it together, but because the defenses were really playing in top form.

Here's a lovely phone video of me doing some donuts around a round about in my neighborhood this morning. http://myspacetv.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=27617287 drat, that is lovely video. I can get more angle, but I have to use both hands. Edit: stupid Americans need "one way" signs so they go around the round-a-bout correctly. Also, there are stop signs

Yes, I'm absolutely serious. I freely admit that I was looking forward to seeing a more offensive game, but I must add the disclaimer that I am Canadian, and am used to offensive plays being forced by the structure of the game. I guess if I'd been drinking heavily, the 40 or so minutes of actual playtime between the first 10 points, and the rest of the scoring, might have been watchable. Also, Canadian TV feed doesn't get any of the high budget US commercials, just the same lovely ones as always. /ot Here's Mikka Hakkinen in his office, showing how Spa should look, from the front seat of a DTM car. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=as6s5Tk0izc

Whatever guys, I enjoy sliding my Miata around, especially on days where the roads are wet and cold. If I'm not going to drive my Miata like it was meant, then why didn't I just buy a silver Corolla? For race fans: 2007 SCCA Runoffs Spec Miata race http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5639024330253761394 finished 24th of 37 Laguna Seca in 2006 http://videos.streetfire.net/video/0bef9184-6de2-4d28-8f5d-986d000e0492.htm Here's my race at Phoenix International Raceway last January where I finished 2nd (3rd the next day) http://videos.streetfire.net/video/1dae7ab0-a3b9-4b76-94f2-988f0010e13e.htm (I finished 2nd in both races this year, google Ara Malkhassian to see who I finished 2nd to, and beat the next day) So yeah, I do have some skillz, and I'm gettin kinda tired of people calling me out.

Seriously, telling us about your amazing skills will gain you no credibility. If you had started properly, and posted videos of your driving in modesty, people would be all over you with praise; including me. Instead, you start off on the wrong foot, claiming to be hot poo poo. That does not help you, that makes everyone who has some sense on this forum dislike you and your ego. This lends absolutely nothing to whatever loving driving skill you may have, because you sir, are a jackass. Stop talking about your racing skills, and build more hondas. EDIT ^^^^ the Civic picture was better

You are arrogant and come across as spoiled on the forums, and overly-aggressive, not to mention inconsistent on the track. You may think you have God's own can handling "skillz", but I've seen a hundred other amateur racers who're just as good. I've seen a couple of your videos, and in every single one, EVERY ONE, your aggressive nature on the track has led to an incident. Hell, you loving spun another car in the second half of those PIR videos you posted. You could have had him on the preceding lap, SAFELY, if you hadn't gotten so excited by being close to him that you hosed the corner entry and had to recover. If you were racing in any real series where it cost tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars to fix the damage from your little "incidents", or where the course officials could fine you as much for your antics, you'd be singing a different tune, and I'm sure that the sponsors or your team would be putting pressure for the same. You may have brought home some finishes, but that doesn't make you the next big thing. Sure, you can put it all down to the fact that "everyone in AI's just JEALOUS 'cause I'm LIVIN' THE DREAM!". Sure, I'll admit it, I'm jealous. I'd love to have mommy-and-daddy give me the money to race for a season instead of going to college. I'd love mommy-and-daddy's friends to "sponsor" me for racing, too. But just because nobody else in AI has been fortunate enough to had a year's racing paid for by Pop doesn't mean everyone here is talentless or too scared to go waste their professional lives trying to be a racer. When you post the typical, immature poo poo like "LAWLS DRIFTIN' ROUND A ROUDABOUT IN MAH RACECAR!!" that is quite obviously frowned upon here in AI, don't piss and moan about how nobody respects you because you're young. The reason nobody respects you is because you are, as I said earlier, an arrogant, mediocre, coddled, spoiled 20 year old who has yet to face life's realities and will, if he's lucky, have a career racing professionally, to be thereafter referred to as "traffic ahead" on all the sportscasts when you get lapped by the truly talented drivers. Your asinine attempts to refute accusations that you are just that, a talentless footnote, are even more pathetic due to how obviously you're overlooking the fact that you are being teased for being a gigantic human being with an overinflated ego, not for being without talent. You're not being teased for saying "I can drift my Miata around a lightpole with only 6 inches clearance!", you're being teased because you think that there aren't a hundred million other people in the world that can do that. I know it comes as a gigantic shock, but you are not pretty and unique snowflake. You are just another loving slob.

I'd just like to say that not everyone who races with SCCA is an rear end in a top hat about it. I know we have a few other guys on the forum who participate in Club Racing. I think you know damned well that you would not be posting like this on SCCA Forums or the Spec Miata boards. It's real easy to be the "big racecar driver man" on a board of people who don't participate in sanctioned racing leagues. EDIT: And furthermore, if any of you were to meet the guys who rank in the top 3 the National Championship Runoffs, you would swear they are some of the nicest, humblest guys ever. Everyone in the Touring ranks was always very friendly and helpful to my slow rear end, it would be a shame to give the idea that any of these guys are this way.
