It was on his bucket list..He has a way bigger bucket than me...It is a one and done thing for him.. His pictures he sent were just crazy.. The hills , the yachts, the Hotels, the exotic cars.. But the race ? Boring..

Dare I say "You show me how you do 78 laps around Monaco, half of them on tyres that should have been changed 20 laps ago"?

Also I am comparing it to his actual experience for the week.. His days before the race were hard to beat.. He is wealthy and even he felt poor.. The experience was so much more fun for him than the race..that is kinda what I meant..Not that the driver's aren't great, they are..

I am more bias to the exhaust, Meagan, Agency, TopSpeed and Invidia Gemini are within my budget. Money wise, I can afford the Smart Tops right away, the only concern is the dealer might void the warranty.... Last edited by alcheng; 05-27-2012 at 06:35 PM. |

I have a feeling that would be me too... or I'd be holding up Karthikeyan.
Luckily, (although not this weekend) Kobash is doing a good job to help dispell the myth of the bad Asian driver with his performances in F1.

I cannot even imagine being there.. My Bucket is too small for that.. My bucket is building my Pro Touring Track car, Yosemite, Grand canyon.. Not going to Monaco for the F1 race....OMG... Oh and I would have to start in the back in an Indy Light car.. I wouldn't want to hold people up.. F1 ? I don't think my Brain can process things that fast... You can give me new tires every five laps and I would still kiss the metal guardrail or stuff it at the hairpin turn...Right where the Fairmont Hotel is. But I saw your avatar...Enjoy any track time you get.

Alcheng I have the smart top and really like it.
For me Luna no passing equals no excitement, sorry. Just the speed and handling is like a hot lap or qualifying.

My Z/28 is flirting with the 370Z...
They seem to be getting closer in the garage.. I think there is something going on. The last time I went in the garage, the covers were off the cars and they were naked.. I double covered them ..

Take it easy, Fire. Just settled down myself to watch it.

My 350 and 370 are always separated by the garage door. I'm sure they're lusting after each other.
