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

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!! |

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. |

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. |

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