getposition · June 18, 2007

hey guys,

i got the rare chance yesterday to attend the 2007 F1 championship held at Indianapolis motor speed raceway. It was an amazing experience, and was also happy to see ferrari getting whopped by the mclaren team. I will be postings images and videos later......Is anyone going to be at France to see what will happen next????

Im a Ferrari fan but hamilton is doing very well. I think the INDY race was kinda boaring merc vs. merc and Ferrari vs. ferrari. I like Hamilton but I hoping on a win for ferrari @ france

yeah the gap between alonso and raikkonen was like 12 seconds at the end, so its going to be a tough competition. lets see what happens...but the petronas BMW didnt do good at all. I wanted to see renalut doing some damage like in the past but their performance was dissapointing as well. Anyways overall it was a great experience

getposition - I am jelous of you man. I wish I had gone but then I would miss the Le Mans, why do they both have to be the same weekend? I hope to make it next year. btw, did u goto any of the practice runs? I have meen to the pit lane on an Indy practice day and the sound of those V8s rattled me to the bone - man, what rush! we need more US F1 races - how about in FL?

You're into sportscars? I'm a huge fan of Le Mans and the ALMS, having attended the odd round a few years ago. Too bad the Peugeots couldn't pull it off, huh? Maybe next year, hopefully with Villeneuve. I was also disappointed that one of my favourites, Flying Lizard Motorsports, couldn't win GT2.

I am into it so much it physically hurts that I cant goto these races. I havent been to any ALMS events. I used to live in cincinnati and I could've easily driven to IMS and mid-ohio, I am now kicking myself..but now I am closer to FL for the ALMS events. I was lucky to watch the F1 on sunday cos speed channel switched to freaking nascar! thank god for FOX.

as far as the P# classes, I am not sure what's gonna happen with the newer cars coming in next year and the whole diesel/gas engine restrictions etc. Somone has to put a stop to audi or we're gonna have to start giving some respect to their road cars soon. It must be something else to have won as many races as Derek Bell.

I sent an email to Dilantha M (thru his site) asking if he's gonna do any events next year in FL and he said, he might. If he does, maybe we can all g2g and watch our boy kick some ass

Hoping to attend the ALMS race at Limerock in July. Too bad Peugeot couldn't break the Audi streak, but a well deserved third place for Pescarolo.
