| Wow that's unreal.... Formula 1 is the only type of racing I really enjoy watching; it's really blowing my mind how the mayor could say no to that... What a shame.. |

| At least some F1 fans here!!!..who knew? Im a huge fan for many years. Would have been unreal to have that so close, but again, USA is not the best fan base for F1 events. BTW: who is a fan of Top Gear?...Im lucky I have the NJ Motorsport Park here about 40 min from me. They at least have the Daytona Proto-type races. (Grand Am)and I get to take my car for many track days (porsche!!) |

Lame...F1 would have been the greatest thing that this area has seen for autosports in a long long time IMO.
Haha speaking of, i was out at dinner a few nights ago and some Coors light girl was walking around giving some contest away:
Coors girl:
Would you like to enter our contest? you can win the grand prize...
Me: Is it a million dollars?
Coors girl:No actually its a 4 person all access pass for the Nascar Race at Pocono Raceway
Me: Can i go to F1 instead?
Coors Girl: No, im sorry
Me: Move along, less talk more beer
Needless to say she wasnt to happy haha.
@UncleED Top Gear is the best, ive been a huge fan for a long time. Clarkson is the man. |

ahhh my man, you have taste!..Clarkson is unreal with his interviews...and the Stig: MS, cant beat that;,lol |

Ive seriously wondered if i still believe that MS is the Stig, i mean yeah it would be awesome but it could all just be a huge publicity stunt. I heard Bacardi was behind it somehow, anyways...yeah i think one of my fav segments was when they Raced the tractor trailers around the track, or when they went to Vegas a while back.
The Ford Fiesta vid was hillarious too.
I have an old video of Clarkson reviewing a Testarossa from like forever and a half ago, i gotta try to dig that up. |

| I think MS is the stig..did you see him drive the FX Ferrari? You need to know your with that car..set the track record.. |

I love that car the LFA, unreal. However I love the Audi R8 also.
IMO: unless you know how to drive a "real" car, stay away from the above. I am level 3 in NASA (Group 3): "Advanced" drivers are those who have participated at 10 track days on more than one track and have been "signed off" by an instructor for each track driven. Group 3 drivers can request instructors at additional cost. Passing other cars in Group 3 is only allowed after the driver of the lead car signals but may be done anywhere on the track".
I have my 944 Turbo, but have been behind the wheel of some nice GT2 /GT- 3 Porsche Cup Cars. |

Nice congrats man! I wish i had the cash to do that someday. I'm thinking about getting a used S2000 next summer and using it for trackdays but im not sure if i want to do it or not, or even where to start.
The LFA is sick, to bad its so damn expensive. That review was awesome though.
There is a guy who lives around me who owns an autobody shop. He races a GT3 professionally, not sure which class or cup. He's also got a nice F430 Scuderia that ive seen him driving around. |
