Andretti picked up only one win in the pointy cars. At Australia in the rain. After Tracey and others toook themselves out. He was ok in the Indycars but not up to Michael's and Jr.'s level.

Damon Hill has signed with the Footwork Hart team(next year called TWR Arrows) Whoa, what a shock. Not only will he be in a substandard car, but an engine down on the ponies. He and Johnny Herbert ought to have a few good runs together next year. I was sure the Puegeout money would pull him to Jordan. I guess he should be happy he has a ride. I don't expect Brundle to be back at Jordan, or even Ruebens.

You might consider selecting the next size up next time you purchase briefs.... I think that permission would be gladly granted for someone willing to help in the distribution of materials freely offered over public services. Seriously, what is considered "stealing" in posting public information from this echo to another network? Is there a clear description of this in some sort of Fido rule? I would like to be clear on this as I have posted information to an automotive conference in a small family-oriented network from here before.

Well, I guess that just goes to show that timing is everything. I've dropped by a couple of the chat rooms from time to time (One of them was NASCAR Fans On-Line) and I've never found anything but a bunch of of 12 year-olds (in mind at least) saying such things as "Dale sucks", "Rusty whines", "Jeff Rules", etc. etc. etc. I don't believe I've seen any of them complete an entire sentence, and they just repeat and repeat.

IMSA runs Ferraris now. It means that Porsche, who pulled out of Sebring several years ago (stupid rules change) will now be able to bring those wunnerful machines of theirs to the states (and Canada) again. Nobody knows much about the gent that bought IMSA but I do know this, he's a good buddy of a very prominent team owner. Somehow I feel there's a whole bunch more to this than meets the eye.
