It's still-'Rothmans'.

Camped up there mate - it's still not a mountain no matter how steep.
Nor are any of the so called mountains within Auckland. I'm not just picking on Ozzie's.
I look out my front/side/back windows, and I see hills higher than all those little bumps. And we don't call them mountains.

On the other hand - there's a few big often white topped bumps down the road, and they are mountains.

Yeh - me too.

Well in a flat land like ozzy,a small lump is a mountain,as are corners ha ha.
That is a very steep bit of road,some people watch it on tv and thinks its a cake walk.
Well for those that do,they are so wrong!

The one I really do like to hear after a handicap race is "Jeez that was so close. If only we'd had another 200m I would have had him!"

The one I don't like is "That was crap handicapping" - usually after a race with a heap of yellow flags.

Personal hate when in the pits and the bonnet of my car is open and someone walks past "oh, its a V8, I bet that uses a lot of gas".They obviously dont get it.

+1"Well said that man."

whqqsh, Jan 22, 12:25am
Overheard one guy say "probably passes everything on the road except a gas station". I said, "but Ill still be first to the gas station" .so you're right they dont get it

"What is it!"

"Its a ******."

"Is it a Porsche!"

"No, it's a ******"

"Is it a Jag!"

"No, it's a ******"

"Who makes them then!"

"******"

"We'll just take a break while they clean up the oil down", hate it, usually because you're cooking in the sun (driver/spectator)while you're waiting however long it takes. P!sses me off that some lemon has done a rubbish job with their car so that it craps itself all over the track, good one - NOT.

socram, Jan 23, 4:07am
Agree!Even F1 cars break.

That quote was from a Rallycross meeting. I built the second car he spoke of. John Welch's Gartrac G4 4wd escort.Johnwon from Martin Schanke who finished second.

Some one said yesterday,"I am having a good day,when my legs are shaking like a horny dog" Now thats a cracker!
Although I wonder how he knows that pmsl!

From speedway a few years ago, a young fella wandering thru the pits saying it was only a minor engine problem, while holding half a conrod in his hand!
