Seems like everybody has had there fill of F1 this year. The only reason I am still watching is that I want to see Hamilton get his egotistical, entitled ass kicked!!

Rumor has it Leigh has been seen following the young Max carrying a clipboard very low across his belt line, following VERY close.

Hey not to pat ourselves on the back but ...

The Harvey Mushman Stunt Team #270 finished it's ChumpCar race at Road America last Sunday!!!

The little '97 civic with a '91 B18 out of a Acura was the hot ticket. So two destroyed D16 engines we tried were just learning curves I spose.
I am sooo proud of our little team. We finished 8th in A class but we're faster than that and will be punching our ticket into top 5 in the spring.

One last thing ...

They need to move the finish line to under the start lights at COTA ! Make some room for some exciting finishes for cry'n out loud.

The only part of that track worth a shit is the first turn.

Anytime a track has left right left right turns it makes one line no passing,always,evertime.

You two could argue bout a 3ft high whoops vs 2ft 11in ones ... and the benefits of 1in higher or lower.

Though I do think some of the man made elevation in that place isn't used properly, I think that of Road America from time to time as well. Oh well.

At least COTA has elevation changes better than none at Canada and the Indy F1 tracks

Watching the pit walk pre show now just before i leave for work.
They acknowlage crowds are poor, and that Taylor Swift fans purchased 70,000 tickets for the in track concert.
As they have stated, you guys need an F1 usa driver to spark interest.

Kinda the norm for F1 races in the US. The first year at Indy the place was packed and each year after the numbers went down year after year. Even with Hass in F1 and if we had US drivers I doubt the viewership numbers will increase dramatically. F1 is just a bit too European for the average American motorsport fan. They prefer NeckCAR with names such as Ford and Chevy. You hear Mercedes and Ferrari and they think Ritchy Rich snobs eating Caviar and sipping Champagne.

IDK man, this is a good race! Poor Verstappen, gearbox?

i dunno what race you r watching but the closest battle is for 3 and 4th place and they are still separated by 1,5 sec wich is a lot for F1 races.

I think engine issues for Max as they showed in the replay the engine lost all power and basically stalled
Could be gearbox also i don't know but i assume that a gearbox issue with still let him rev the engine wich he clearly could not

Diffy just said the official 3 day total is 260,000 spectators, but who knows, maybe Luongo is keeping tally lol

Crowd looks pretty healthy to me.

btw: im so sick of them showing movie stars and shit that attend, who gives a fuck???

Those who think it is boring just wait until 2017, the cars are gonna be on rails!!!! Back to wide fat tires, they are gonna corner like we havent seen in years. Lets just hope its not another two car runaway every fucking race. Zero parity is whats so damn boring.
