  1. Holy fuck. I told my kid this was gonna happen, then it happened. He jumped up and hi-fived me, missed my hand & knocked my glasses off my head & across the room. Phones ringing like crazy. Complete bedlam.
  2. Seriously, it's just unbelievable.
  3. Seriously wtf, tossing the P on the first HBP in the game? Holy shit. And Smoltz is such a blowhard dumbfuck.
  4. OK that's bullshit. That should be a warning.
  5. Adolis is such a bitch. I mean ... you really think he's tryna put you on in this situation? What a dumbfuck.
  6. FYI y'all I tried out Lot Z today. Not affiliated with COTA, right next to Lot L. it was about $40 online, $50 cash. Walked right across Lot L to the T11 entrance. Worked great. Traffic controlled very well, unlike COTA. Easy, peasy.
  7. Yeah I think those Brits hear 'soft clay' and think marshland.
  8. Yep. Traffic control & transportation plan is a complete joke, as usual. Crossing traffic goingto different lots, too many cops in some places, not enough in others. Some places they're just sitting in their cars doing nothing, can't turn left onto 130 from Elroy Rd leaving COTA, had to do the u-turn like you, etc. Just so idiotic. &Yeah it's hot AF. It was 100F during Q3. Yeah they're on sale online right now for $27. ETA: at least the AM caps are. They're also $90 at COTA.
  9. Yeah if I go I'm thinking about using Lot Z Parking on Elroy near Lot L. Not affiliated with COTA. Or I might just head out there and try my luck. I dunno. I got my kid a free Lot H pass from a reddit chick who said she would be using it.
  10. Yeah ya gotta take the bad (COTA) with the good (Aston Martin zooms with Fernando and (has anyone seen) Mike Krack. I'm still on the fence about just going out there today. Tickets are cheap and falling, but got damn, it'll be hot.
  11. As long as I avoid any news, it's all live to me. I ain't getting up at zero dark 30 to watch F1. I'll stay up late for it though. Not a morning person.
  12. Yeah I haven't heard that he or any of the others are major investors. That team is still controlled by Renault/Alpine ... unfortunately.
  13. Eh ... that topic did not come up. How's that for a non-answer answer?
  14. OBTW, I was chosen by Aston Martin the other day to do the first ever 'I / AM A FAN' tiktok live stream today, which is why I was late to the pit walk. Me & 7 or 8 other fans on a zoom-like call, with Stoffel, (anybody seen) Mike Krack, and Fernando. So I got that goin' for me ... which is nice.
  15. So I tried to go to the Pit Walk today, and this happened. I'll just imbed my tweet about it, 'cuz easier.
  16. Damn...these must be Big 12 umps, taking forever.
  17. Alpine is trying to win while spending 2/3 as much money as the other manufacturers and doing everything the French way.. Good luck.
  18. From what I've been reading, most if not all of that investment is into the road car division, not the F1 team, but F1's not gonna discourage anyone from thinking otherwise.
  19. Yep, and because they were told by their NASCAR sponsors back here that they'd better divest from that shit or their American sponsors were going to divest from them. Haas only got out of bed with the Russkies because they were told to, and it's really not clear if they've fully broken from them.
  20. As in "American" in name only? Yep. There are probably a few Americans sprinkled into the team, but there's not really much American about it and certainly not much for us American F1 fans to get excited about.
  21. Some clown shows never end ... Notice anything wrong here? Drugovich, but no Stroll for Aston Martin
  22. Sure, they will at first just like anyone, but that doesn't mean they'll be there 8 years down the road, like Haas is.
