Man, at first glance, I honestly thought this was just some clever ad campaign...
but once I realized Elizabeth Hughes actually caught onto the mistake they made at the start... I had to go back and watch it.

Pretty interesting stuff!👍

Thanks for the heads up, Raymond Carter2.

Elizabeth Hughes said:Man, where have you been hiding? 😘

Is there some kind of drama going on between you guys that I’m totally out of the loop on? 😠

redheron12 is a bigger mystery to me than whatever happened with WayOut...

So, which magazine actually puts out the best guide for the 2005 season?

So, where are you now? 😁 😛 🙂

Not gonna happen... real men fly planes. 😛

Honestly, I’m glad we lost this way. We all knew the second half was a wash from the jump. It’s better to take the hit now than to drag it into overtime just to get crushed there.😁

But whatever, I’m just disappointed in how the defense played. I mean, did we even set up a single block?😢

It's actually 10 minutes and 53 seconds...🙂

Justin Green said:Hey there. I’m really into rock music where the guitar solos actually take center stage—stuff like Gunse, Uriah Heep, Hallen... Satriani and that vibe. If anyone knows any other good bands, hit me up. Just emphasize ROCK, not metal, please. Give me some recs.

If you want solos that are actually woven into the song rather than just being annoying noise, you have to check out Dire Straits.

You can test them out by finding a live version of Sultans of Prey online from the Alchemy concert—just listen to about 10 minutes... Honestly, I haven't heard a better solo since.👍

Depends on who you ask...

Depends on who you ask...

😁

Back when I was heading over to Austria in 2003, Compass used to organize trips to all these races...

But honestly, what a massive pain in the ass it is to drive all the way to Milwaukee...

I’ve got a feeling Expedia is moving toward an Expedia deal...

stormyviper11 said:Take a look at the six posts above... 😁

Alright, fine. I didn't realize saying "I have" meant you were claiming you wrote it... 😁

stormyviper11 said:The latest issue is all about John Surtees. First my piece, and now Projic's article comes out just six weeks later....

Well, why don't you give us a heads-up when your article drops? Give us a chance to tear you apart a little! 😁

mistybear87 said:Whoa, hey now, take it easy. Whatever you think about him...

Delete that, mistybear87. Delete it right now!!!😁

Don't sweat it too much... Michael Jordan won't have an easy ride this year with the Sauber "dream car" or the Blue Storm breathing down his neck.😁
While Schumi is busy fighting to overtake Jacques, Montoya will be sitting pretty right at the front of the pack...

That’s my vote for Juan Pablo Montoya right there!
Inace, I’ve been bugging Mr. X for ages to set up a betting pool like this, though maybe we should limit it to the top 5 or top 10 finishers instead.
Still, this isn't a bad way to warm up. 😁

Inace, looking at all these driverless cars... you have to hand it to Jacques Villeneuve! 👍 😁

mistybear87 said:I should have a bit more cash on hand this year (though probably not until we hit Monza), but I’m driving a car that runs on propane—which basically means 186 miles is going to be a breeze for $17, maybe even cheaper if we head down to Florida. So, if there’s a crew out there looking for an adventure, I’ve got four spare seats 😉

🙄
Honestly, I'd rather let Alex Yong take the wheel...😲

Malta said:What do you mean you can't send it?😢

I don't have your email address, obviously...
😁

Malta said:hehe - and "your helmet looks cool"...
wait, are you pulling a Villeneuve Senior here? this is a Junior helmet, isn't it?

I'm just messing with you about the Villeneuve family... :-D

Malta said:the old man was a legend. I've got two tapes at home with recordings of every single race from his era, footage of the house they had just bought, and the kid just running around their feet....

Hmm, hmm... we'll be having more to say about that one...

Malta said:(thanks to that special gentleman from Cleveland, anyone who owns that one specific book knows exactly who I'm talking about 😉 )

And for those who don't own the book—are you going to explain to them who (or what) you're talking about?😲
👋

Malta said:Seriously, if you track it down, send it my way!
😁

Managed to dig up this brochure in a dream!
But I can't actually send it over...

Malta said:The woman in the photo is sucking on a candy...

She’s a real sweetheart...

Malta said:We picked Imola because we're hitting up a few other spots along the way...
That’s my main concern right there—that narrow track layout (I don't care much about Love Hill). It all comes down to sightlines and what you can actually see from your seat. Then again, if the track is tight and nobody can overtake, at least you won't miss the action. Get it? 😎

Also, we're thinking about going through SEM... I'd get a massive discount on tickets if I did.

I'm not sure if you've ever been to a race before... but if it's your first time, it won't be bad even if nobody manages to pass anyone...
As for how much you can actually see at Imola... honestly, I have no clue. Try digging through the Imola website or whatever ticket vendor they use; they might have more details on the track layout.
Last year, SEM emailed me their brochure, so you could just ask them to send one over to you too... or I can dig it up and send it to you myself if I find it.

P.S. What on earth is that woman in the photo holding in her mouth?
