Re: Awsome AD! Video 56K Beware!

I had a hard time seeing it on your link, but I think this is the same one-
http://youtube.com/watch?v=Xi1EQBVA2Lc

McLaren? You mean that team that hasn't won a race since Suzuka 2005? and hasn't won a championship since Hakkinen in 1999?

Ferrari is the oldest team, has the most wins, most poles, most fastest laps, and most championships of any team in F1.

Forza Massa! Forza Kimi!

Awesome commercial, saw it earlier on another board and it was worth watching again. It reminds me of the Honda commercial done very similarly to that a few months ago.

Re: Awsome AD! Video 56K Beware!

Supposedly its the most expensive commercial ever made. (Even yes more then the Honda one)

Mclarens nice and all but I'll stick to their road cars

The reason why I don't use Youtube is because to me it comes out less with clarity, it truly is a beautiful commercial/movie Imo.

Funny you mention the '05 season. Wasn't the only race Ferrari won that year at the USGP when only 6 cars raced??

Ah, but who's living in the past?? '06 was a McLaren rebuilding season. This year is revving up to be a good one.

Dare I say.......Hamilton > Massa

EDIT: Oh, and you spelled "you're" wrong in your sig.

Yup, and the year before that was the one where Ferrari won 13 of 18 races, setting a record of 5 consecutive championships.

Too bold as of yet. Massa has won races, Lewis hasn't. Massa's race at Australia was near perfect given a reliability problem, Hamilton dropped a tyre off the track a few times. I bet Hamilton wouldn't have been able to pass everyone from 22nd to 6th like Massa did and had Massa's car not had its reliability problem I would bet he would have been on the podium. Massa was also by far the fastest person in testing this winter.

While I would like to see a 3-4 man competition for the championship (Kimi, Alonso, Massa, and Hamilton with a chance), I think Massa and Kimi are in by far the best shape right now, especially given that Kimi's fastest lap at Australia was over a second faster then Alonso's, and it wasn't even like he was being pushed. Unless Ferrari has drastic reliability problems or McLaren become much much faster, its a two (prancing) horse race.

Re: Awsome AD! Video 56K Beware!

While we are at it... I'm confused about this...

"The final illiteration of the Rx7 was either the greatest track weapon ever made or the harshest street
machine to bottom out on the lip of a driveway"


When I was at school, alliteration was when the first two stressed vowels of consecutive words were the same or at least the same letter. Iterations are the repetition of something or a computational methodology of using an estimate and repeating this until some precision is achieved. Editions are versions of something that are presented to the public... but there is no word such as 'illiteration' in the OED.



Kimi is going to be faster than Massa but despite this he has still has the charisma of wet cornflakes... At least, I used to enjoy not liking Schuey but Kimi is about as wooden as Scott Tracy from the Thunderbirds... or Keanu Reeves (And Scott had an excuse, he was a wooden puppet).

You have too much time on your hands...

Isn't "illiteration" the practice of not being able to read and write properly? LOL

Awesome commercial!
