would he had been so scornful of the track if the red cars had come in 1-2?
you must be the guy thats always going in the clapp clinic then..............and in 20 years from now you will be picking up your hearing aid!
im going with a mate, who is going with his wife/kid. they are taking their caravan, but i shall be pitching next to them in a tent.
they wouldnt want me in with them at night......excessive snoring/farting.
im even considering getting my own portaloo, so i dont have the pleasure of using a crappa thats been "graced" by several thousand other backsides!

thanks for all your comments.
becky, yours was very helpful.
ive been a few times to the track for testing, and even then the food? prices were not good.......so i shall be selfsufficent.
as far as ear plugs go.......i dont care how i look, (you should see my boatrace!)......and i did go to the camping 300 this year in the states, so i know how important they are, but thanks again.
nice one all

perhaps he meant "you nit" 
maybe it had nothing to do with you buying the scones.
perhaps it was the fact you were holding your friends d*ck!
a thousand apologies...couldnt resist that one!
the guy who is beating your team and drivers in the championship.
BTW..........your f*rrari cars didnt do very well, UNLUCKY!
the sting is one of my all time favorite films.
a great actor, racer, and human being.
his kind will not pass this way again.

putting all the racing details aside, i would stake a weeks wages that this was just another stab at ron dennis and mclaren by the FIA and a certain "person" within that organisation.
I gently lean over in my chair so that my right buttock is lifted off said chair and let one fly.
then i take the next corner one handed as im wafting my delicious fart around the room, usually to the dismay of my other half.

but it would punish the person causing the accident too...and unless they hit the same guy everytime it would be fair.
wrecking
just an idea.........
as LFS is a sim, and not a game, and with some shocking driving standards online i had an idea.
in real life, if your car was damaged, you had to pay for repairs or new parts.
if you are a skillful, safe, courtious driver, i would expect your garage bill to be light.
the opposite would apply to a hotheaded unskilled moron.
like in the early days of LFS, you got money by racing offline, the better your result, the more cash you had.
now if that money could be transfered across into the online world, so if you had a lot of shunts you had to pay for it out of your virtual account.
i know it wouldnt take into account who was to blame, but if you drove badly all the time, your funds would soon be wiped out.....hey presto....you days of online racing are cut until you gain enough funds from sensible offline racing.
hopefully this will have two positive sideaffects.
1. the servers would soon be filled with clean decent racers
2. the loons who wreck a lot would be forced to learn to race offline, and if they dont.......no cash.....................
no cash means no repairs.
how differcult would it be for the devs to work out the cost of a front wing, burnt out clutch or overworked tyres?
hopefully this would encourage racers to think about their car and maybe, just maybe reduce to amount of stupid dangerous driving that for me is begining to ruin such an excellent racing sim.
i look forward to your thoughts, good or bad.
take care, race hard.....but fair.

Im not bored.
but i am sick to the back teeth with the total idiots that race on LFS now.
racing incidents are annoying, but they will always happen, heck, ive done loads myself, im no saint.
what im talking about are the ignorant fools who join the server midrace on, block you in the pitlane and then either wreck you on purpose, or do it trying to stop you passing......replay anyone?
then there are the tossers who must decide to make decent racers life hell by just driving like complete morons. attempting unrealistic pass's, must win driving at T1 when there are 8 laps to pass/win in, totally ignoring blue flags, then denying they saw them...........replay anyone?
what does the server admin do? "please drive properly"
well, thats going to shake them down to their boots isnt it?
ban them.............ban them for a week. maybe that might make them stop and think.

nice one on your championship win!
glad you didnt suffer any injurys, the vid was very good to watch.
im guessing that as good as it is, "racing" on LFS must be a litle bit of a comedown after the real thing!
good luck on next season as defending champion.

thanks! watching half a dozen 30/40 somethings leaping about like idiots to "Paranoid" made me feel pretty good!
we are doing an open mic gig this saturday and song 2 is one of the numbers planned.
if i get it videoed i will put it on youtube.
ditto.
i honestly will feel dirty if i watch another F1 race.
F(arce) 1 is what it is now....
Its a week ago now, but ive been busy at work.....but last Saturday night we were playing our first gig.
about 80 people turned up to see us, friends, family and work mates.
we did a little sound check, which got a few folks to check us out, and then we waited for 20:30 to come and kicked (no pun intended) off with The undertones "Teenage kicks".
i will never forget the reaction we got.........everyone went nuts. it was like a wave of sound hitting me...incredible feeling.
after that we did eight more numbers and had a break, then nine more for the second set and finished.
Folks were dancing and wanted more, so we gave them three tunes we had done earlier, ones they requested.
and that was that. overall i would give us 7/10, not bad for a first effort. everyone said what a good time they had and we shall be playing again in november.
