Then again, who knows if McLaren would have been where they were without the stolen death star plans

Missed my opportunity at the tweetup in Montreal to bust his ***** a little about this. I really want to know what he alludes to.
I don;t think I've been in this thread since around pre-Kimi-Lotus days...where we at with the hybrids/MGU-H/current engine formula? We lovin' or hatin' around these parts?

Re: The Official Formula 1 2017 Season Thread
Talks between Toro Rosso and Honda regarding a Formula 1 engine supply deal for 2018 have collapsed. Honda is keen to take on a second F1 team, after its agreement with Sauber was cancelled, as it feels the extra data gathered would help development with McLaren.
Toro Rosso will continue to run Renault power units next season. Had it switched to Honda power, it would have been its third different supplier in three years.
It remains unclear whether Honda will continue with McLaren next season after a challenging campaign so far. Should McLaren split with Honda, that would force the Japanese manufacturer out of the championship and leave Renault as McLaren's only option for a supply.

You should read "Feet Wet: Reflections of a Carrier Pilot" by retired Adm. Paul Gillcrist. He talks about his plane experiences, including the Cougar.

Also, since we're feeling nostalgic about Honda F1 flags for many monies...
Own a flag from the team that actually juan a race (2006 Budapest) and had the ugliest cars evar. BAR was pretty and exciting in 2004, but never juan nuthin.
Offered and $.25 per wrinkle.
