After watching Indycar at Belle Isle this weekend I can say for sure not Indycar.

 

Went5 to a raffle this weekend and the guy next to won a wheel and a poster from Force India, he didn't know what it was so I gave him $200 for them both. Then I won a set of chrome 22" gm replica wheels and sold them for $450, lol.

 

that rim has seen some ****

 

Fax me that wheel though.

 

"I don't want to sound cocky but I don't doubt my ability as a racing driver and I have proven that to myself in the past in my career in F4 and F3," Stroll said.

I wonder how long before he matches Massa.

 

why doe?

 

Somebody should remind Lance that money does buy better equipment - esp in those feeder "spec" series.

 

playing f1 2014 in australia i blew a corner on the penultimate lap and went thru the gravel and VET passed me for the win

my car setup was way too aggressive and the prime tyre was giving up at the end. i don't pass anybody on the first lap anymore since the AI is so terrible on the first lap so i had to battle to the front.

 

"if you no longer go for a gap that exists..."

 

PS - I am skipping Canadia this year, potentially going to Austin instead.

Anyone planning to go to either of these rounds?

 

Nope. Only F1 related event I'm attending is hanging out with Outrun at ITR/NSX Expo.

 

Spec series on a street course.


(F1 would be just as bad from a racing standpoint but at least the cars are impressive.)

 

You can literally be in the lead after one lap if you qualify anywhere in the top 10. It's not realistic or fun to just drive up to the front while the AI tiptoes through the first corners. They're up to speed after 1 lap though.

 

Sup Blu!! That sounds more fun TBH. Would love to run one of those events someday.

I've played, but my OG PS3 overheats after about 15 minutes of GT6 or F1. Would fix it but I never lose a race that way.

 

For those who have been to the USGP at COTA how much were hotels during race weekend?

 

 

well it did come off of sergio's car

 

ok that rim has seen some caca

 

You can use that wheel to hold your garden hose like what King Motorsports did with this Mugen wheel.

 

no I got a enkei wheel for that



Since we have 2 of these wheels, I'm thinking end tables for the couch in the loft of the shop

 

Those would be nice tables.

 

Can't doe.

 

 

yes please

 

Before graduating to F1, Vandoorne won titles in Formula 4, Formula Renault 2.0 and GP2, and won multiple races in Formula Renault 3.5 and Japanese Super Formula.
Unlike Formula 1, these categories all use a single make of chassis, and McLaren believes sticking too rigidly to the driving style that served him so well in those categories has hurt Vandoorne’s form in F1.
“When you come from these kinds of [junior] categories, it’s the same car for everybody - so you have a driving style you have developed around this car to drive them,” explained McLaren racing director Eric Boullier.
“Formula 1 is different - every weekend we bring new front wing, new bodywork, new rear wing, new floor, so the car balance is very different.
“When you have been told during your young career to drive the car one way, in Formula 1 you have to be a bit more flexible and this is only experience.
“He is learning. The team has to move chassis-wise, set-up wise to go to his natural driving style - because every driver has a natural style - and at the same time he is moving out of that, trying to drive differently.”
