Re: 2008 F1 Podium Picker Challenge: British Grand Prix (Rd 9)
Rain always re-sorts the field. I would have picked differently if I'd known/checked the weather for today. And just like quali, the results were just as unexpected. :) RAIN...........the great equalizer!! Someone put out an APB (All-Points Bulletin). Or better yet, someone call AAA I think Ferrari...

Okay that was a weird practice (lots of offs, shunts, and misleading times). I smell another 1-2 German punch...but this time it's the 3-pointed star German team: 1.

Those of you who set your dvr/vcr to record Practice 2 this morning might be shocked to find the first hour is Pinks. :evil: Speed sent the wrong info to most cable/satellite providers. The channel continues to suck more ever year since Fox bought it, with idiotic reality shows in stead of real rac...

Re: Are there any Los Angeles area events?
If you have off on Friday's the El Toro Test n Tune will have a 1-5pm Test n Tune course, some practice runs before the big show and you could probably get a couple of ride alongs or an instructor to help. This friday? or every friday? I'm sorta confused? http://www.thewebwheeler.com/forums/images/...
