I dunno man the back door does feel kinda gravelish. Think he'd just be further up then Max.

Max would be the :frog: that never got kissed.

e: at my wedding, my wife found a frog outside the venue and tried to kiss it for a photo. It then pissed all over here. That would also likely be Max.

It's a staged wedding photo so you can see both of the rings prominently. It's cheesy and why I hate doing wedding photography.

I can put together a bit of an update once the race is done. I'm toying with making an AI thread for next year now that I'm in a class where I'll be in the midfield as opposed to dropping off and a rapid pace, just got to figure out a way to make it interesting and accessible. The endurance race should be a blast though since I get to rag the poo poo out of somebody else's kart and not worry about the engine blowing or banging up the chassis.

Please do post a thread, and make sure you link to it from here. I'd love to see how it goes. I have a couple of friends who want to so 24 Hours of Lemons, but it's too much of a commitment when I have 2 small kids keeping me fully busy at home. Maybe in a few years.

and in other Verstappen news, Jos has supposedly beaten the crap out of his own elderly father who made a complaint to the police and then withdrew it because "it is a family matter" .

“Everything in Formula 1 is a comedy,” Alonso told the official F1 website. “Nothing is really serious, so it’s definitely not a drama. It’s like one of those comedies where you get hit and in the next episode you’re back to normal.

“Jim Carrey – any of his roles! I think he would do well in F1, making a mockery of everything,” added the Spaniard mischievously."

Also you can actually win things in Indycar because it's actual racing unlike F1. Such as the Indy 500, which Rossi won.

I think hes just a bit bored with the pedestrian pace of the races. Which is fair enough because they are still cornering way to slowly for F1.

I think it's time for Nando to just go win the WEC and LeMans for like 5 years straight. That would be Cool and Good.

I don't think he did anything more than a handful of races in 3.5

His GP3 results are loving bizarre and more puzzling in my opinion, I think he had 1 win and like 9 consecutive second place finishes.

looking just at the results what he had over anyone else was consistency. Ok he was consistently 2nd but neither manor nor Mercedes want a crash magnet next to whir line on the grid.
