Ummm... well... uhh.. I was just being funny

! We all know people definitely should not try such silliness.

Oh, and also? We're using code names! [/obscure 'Raising Arizona' reference].

You and Tommy didn't want to qualify today minty

I once again qualified first

The bulls are coming from the back of the grid this race, could this be the race that sees me top the Drivers championship?
Also noticed that Archi has put Monaco as his home race

Good luck everyone behind me

We came from the back last time to get 2nd and 3rd

We're just doing it again to prove our dominance.

I have no idea what is up with the Qualifying thing... how do we do all our practice runs that qualifying is based upon but then not take to the track for qualifying? I didn't do anything differently than I have been all year so umm

As you can see from warmup though we are all ready to go unless for some reason the game decides we aren't allowed on the track...

That will be 15$ for an autograph and 30$ for a picture of me.

*Note: I will only autograph pictures that you buy off of me*

If I didn't crash out we just might have been the first team to go from 9 and 10 to 1 and 2

How much to sign your Sports Illustrated cover and your Wheaties box as a package deal for the end of the year; ya know, if people prepay?

The hell is going on? We practice in bone dry, qualify in bone dry and warmup AND race are set to be bone dry as well but the news thing says "weather has changed" and our practice/qulaifying numbers/ranges are all scrambled come warmups... and setup is saying to increase or decrease stuff that was 'dead on' before so... ummm... What the Dickens?!?

The weather really messed me up

Post by **E5150_ca** » Sat Apr 29, 2006 5:25 pm

Started in 8th.... Lead for half the race, then a horrible pit stop screwed me over and I finished 3rd.

Post by **Minstrel** » Sun Apr 30, 2006 12:47 am

Well I'm about to head down to the theater for tonight but I might take a cab instead of driving; I just caught the weather forcast and they say there's a 75% chance of 'greasy' waether tonight like it was at one point during our race.

I'm also not going to wear my good jacket; hate getting caught out in the greasy with a nice jacket on.

Go

and congrats to the extended Ferrari Family for Octy's first win!

Does anyone need any help with anything I'm always willing to give advice

In qualifying I had mechanical problems which sees me start from the back of the grid

and also it's monsoon conditions as well so don't forget to change your setups & tyres to monsoon

Post by **Minstrel** » Tue May 02, 2006 6:24 pm

Last time I set myself for rain and then it stopped raining half way through

So even if you pit to change your tires your settings are still all screwed

It says monsoon conditions this time so it's less likely to become dry during the race

Just a question here: do I choose the tyres for the next race in "race strategy" or is it in the "car setup"....I think I do something wrong, because I have always too many pitstops during the races with changing conditions!!!

Thanks in advance for the replys!!!
