I kinda remember




I don't think I had any transformers except for juan doe

RED ALERT!



I didn't have a lot of action figures. I had one friend that had ALL the star wars, another friend that had ALL the transformers, and another friend that had ALL the GI Joes. I had like one from each and ... ALL the Space Legos...

No the original Skywarp. Same as Starscream, just black and purple. There was also Thundercracker. He was the blue F15

First look at Torro Rosso Honda 2018 car. In other words a neutered Red Bull...

Livery is rumored to be Championship White with sponsor logos in black

I don't want to get my hopes up but signs are promising. RB wouldb't be talking Honda up if they didn't think there was going to be progress. Plus Honda is going to be getting a lot of help from RB Technologies.

STR is the guinea pig for RBR. They have nothing to lose and everything to gain should Honda improve.

Would STR use one of these as the basis of their livery?

I'm reading Newey's How to Build a Car

Not great. Not bad. Very much like my F1 relationship; I hope for more than it gives, but I can't quit it.

Yusuke Hasegawa will leave his role as head of Honda's Formula 1 project at the end of 2017 as part of a management structure overhaul.

In his role as head of F1 project, Hasegawa was responsible for both engine development in Sakura and the race operation. That role has been removed, with Honda splitting the responsibilities to create two new positions.

That's right near HPD. My friend's hubby is LAFD and they're all hands on deck. LAFD is understaffed because they still have a few engine companies up in Ventura County.

Seems like SoCal is on fire. There's a new one north of San Diego too. Here's the trace of CalFire's OV-10 air attack plane.
