Re: F1 steering wheels

I believe it's the same car. People often use a "fake" license plate to protect their identity, especially when they display their cars. Dan Kennedy's car was displayed with the Arizona license plate SUTLE, but on the road photos show it having the Arizona license plate HBS 605. Before anyone claims I am violating his privacy, there are plenty of photos of both license plates on the web.

I suspect the latter two articles had pictures that were taken on the road, so they showed the actual license plate. Either that, or the registration was changed to a different plate at some point.

I think Dan actually got a personalized plate for his F1. All the photos of that car wearing the "HBS 605" plate are very old. Maybe you weren't implying that the "SUTLE" plate was a fake though. It just runs together in the same paragraph the way I read it.

Also, on the "MAC IP" plate - jimmyc corrected us once in another thread that the plate actually reads "MAC 1P". I had forgotten this detail, but will try not to in the future.

Re: F1 steering wheels

I'm guessing that is the same type of wheel you can see in the on-board video of Le Mans (the one with 'There ain't no brake man on this train as background music, which makes it a awesome vid IMO)??
