Bet you're a better driver for it. Fucking damned right - I've never tailgated since! Had a few occasions whereby I wish I'd had a club hammer in there car with me though
-
Was tailing a bloke a bit too close in Borehamwood about 10 years when he suddenly stopped, got out with a club hammer in his hand and started walking back towards my car with a face like thunder. Quick exit, that day! What can I say? I was nearly 19 - young and daft! Peasepud has a thing for blue Fiesta's IIRC!
-
Aye, I only stick a few quid on each race - got lucky last time with a few accumulators... Only had one night when I came home thinking it was a total disaster!
-
Off to Oxford tonight to 'lose a few quid'. I generally go to a meeting every 6 months or so. Anyone else go? Can't seemed to get as hooked with horse racing though
-
OK, some aspects of the arcade if not likely all of it will be delayed I'm afraid. Some of the files I need to edit are unavailable at the moment and, having had a dig around, we've found out that it is likely to be a host issue rather than a software/permissions one. Out of our hands I'm afraid but we will try to get it resolved ASAP...

http://www.ayrton-senna.com/senna/suzuka.html Here's another for you. A supposed transcript of the Senna/Irvine fight that took place in 1993. Nowt supposed about it, I remember that being printed in Autosport the week after it happened. One of their reporters (might have been Alan Henry) switched on his dictaphone and recorded the whole thing!

Nice link Skol. Knew damned well that Perry 'The original Stig' McCarthy would be included

Senna, opening lap, wet race at Donington. Best. Lap. Ever. Absolutely agree and in an absolute dogshit car! Senna in a wet race full stop to be honest - there were so many examples, Monaco 84, Estoril 85 and Donnington 93 immediately spring to mind. Grates me when they claim Schumacher is the best ever in the wet - good, but not a patch on Senna...

Alonso in a McLaren against Raikkonen in a Ferrari is a mouthwatering prospect. I'm predicting a very close battle but equally, a very fair one too. I also expect Renault to 'fall away' somewhat in the same way they did when Schumacher left them in 1995 (when they were Benetton). It's Alonso's driving rather than the Renault's supremecy which has made that a front-running car IMO. BTW, don't know if you're aware Dr Ken, but Red Bull have managed to broker a deal to have Renault engines next year. Thing is, Ferrari insist that they have a deal to supply Red Bull so it sounds like their junior team (Torro Rosso) will have the Renault blocks... So that will be four Adrian Newey designed cars, two with Ferrari engines and two with Renault engines. That ought to be something to keep an eye on...

He's only been posting a week and he's already got Gemmill sussed....

As was said before, Senna told the FIA either they swap the grid over so that Pole Position was on the clean side of the track or he would make sure he went into the first corner first whether Prost was there or not. Can't say he didn't stick to his word. Incidentally my feelings about Senna pretty much matched those I have of Schumacher up until about 1992 when I saw what he did with an absolute pile of shit which was the McLaren. You couldn't help but have respect for the man for what he achieved against the dominating Williams'...

I'm guessing you'll need Motorola's data suite as well as the cable which should manage the installs from your PC. My latest phone has Windows Mobile 5 so it all gets done by Windows XP
-
Nicely put Damon. Bitter twat tbh Robbed of what should have been his first WDC tbh
-
Glad you're online, I need a word with you, Pearce....
-
So the skin has been rebuilt and applied. You'll now find that the topic titles are in white text and that the options drop downs all work. Just the arcade and stats to deal with and we're back to how we were
-
You mean in the same way Schumacher should have done in Hungary?
-
THIS is more like a young Michael Schumacher (AKA Alex Winter from the Bill & Ted films)...
-
Just for that comment I've re-applied it!
-
That one should be fixed now Gemmill - wanna test and let me know?
-
If I work out how that's working and if it can be changed then yes, otherwise I doubt it. (Might be a 'feature' of the upgrade sadly and may be a way of cutting down on bandwidth)... I'm getting there! Trying my best to try and get this all back to normal while doing my paid job at the same time....
-
Nope, you're not paranoid, we're fully aware of it. Like I said, there's teething issues we're aware of which we'll deal with over the next couple of days. The upgrade wasn't completely seemless but we know what the problems are and, more importantly, how to fix them... Cheers for the heads up though
-
Schumacher brake tested Montoya under the safety car and JPM went straight up his arse IIRC. Yup, which sent Schumacher crashing into the barriers and it was, of course, all JPM's fault!
-
Shame it wasn't finished off with them releasing the seat-belts, twatting them in the face because of the tension..
