One great reason among many to leave that hole.

the other great reason, "the hamptons"

worst people in the world

I'd rather move to Pennsylvania where you can get a house on an acre with included mountain and a creek for 1k a month.

Or go to Florida and hangout with you and TheAxiom

I've traveled there - a lot - although mostly up state, which is actually nice. The real problem up state is that it has the city attached to it. The city is ok to visit, but I would hate living there. It's a fifo (fly in fly out) kinda place. You're welcome down here. Come before you're 70 and avoid the crowd.

Pump Gas

Best I could get out of her

I know that you probably said it but was it a mile or 1/2 mile?

Pump gas is a real downer but I've been there before.

What I want to know was how it felt as you passed through the gearshifts and speed ranges as well as how it felt as you brought her back down.

Thanks!!

As long as you, Mr Tonka, and MKSixer have one each for me to drive around. #slabgod

ASBSECU E93 · 05-16-2016, 08:30 AM

MKSixer - Correct, 1/2 mile.

It felt GREAT to run the gears = biggest challenge was finding the right shift pattern to maximize the power delivery. First run was basically a fact finding mission, best run was last run of the day.

Total distance of the air strip was just over a mile with a slight downhill grade to the middle. Basically - flat out down hill to the 1/2 marker, then coast/decelerate uphill.

4 cars went 190+ on Saturday...918 GT was one of them.

I just had the luck of being staged with 2 BMW's - a Stroked E92 M3 with DCT, and heavily tuned/modded F10 M5. I held off the stroked M3, but the F10 M5 was a beast!

Last 1/8 he took off like a rocket.

Is it too late to comment on coconut water? Harmless Harvest is the only one that tastes like what you get out of a coconut. The others have the consistency of jizz, and are as similar to coconut as soy turkey is to the real thing. I tried Zico and one sip was more than enough for me. Awful. I feel like it's not even worth your time - they've processed the crap of of it.

Also, how bout that Spain GP? AMG Petronas can suck it.

I like AMG, but that first lap debacle was brilliant.

Happy to see Ferrari making some progress.

Woot. New car should be out of Production 5/18. Nice.

You handled it exactly as I would have. It's not just mashing on pedals and flicking the gear shift knob (flappy paddles in my case). Driving high HP is an art and power deployment is a huge part of the equation.

The cars achieving 190+ must have been monsters!! I fully concur with the F10 M5...UNREAL!!

As you have time pls post any other details that you can think of!!

Thanks-mk

I was so pissed about that debacle that I had to either take a walk or throw a wrench through my TV. Well, my brother's TV as we were at his house.

How can you have the most dominant car in F1 history and combine it with the most ridiculous strategy, driver treatment, and general ham-fistedness ever witnessed in the sport? This is starting to go beyond the McLaren debacles of 2004-2013. I was a guest of the team for the German GP at Hockenheimring a few years back and was thoroughly impressed with the operation of he team. Ross Brawn. I met The Rat, Nico, MSC, and a host of team members who knew what they were about. They formed the foundation to the success that is being achieved today.

I have no idea what is going on now.

Let me stop before I have an aneurism.

AMG-Petronas F1 -

Get your crap together.

Hah. Yeah I am excited. My birthday present is black grill surrounds, color matched side gills and front/rear reflector covers, and black logo replacements.
Hehe... I just tend to manage my excitement like a British person would.

Right. Jolly good then. Carry on.

Sadly, the timing is not working out. That is going to be a super busy time and I just cannot justify the time.
