  • Where better to slander other teams, personnel and Ron. Funny you say that. Majority of forums now have a notice on their front page, telling users they cannot slander teams, drivers, etc because they believe it leaves them open to lawsuits! Best ex…
  • Car looks the part. Do I read correct that their Sporting Director is Giovanni Minardi? [Edited on 31/1/2006 by Brooksey]
  • The area forward of the bulkhead is very similar to the MP4/20. In fact the whole car looks similar! Probably why they hired Wurz ;)
  • I wonder if STR will be allowed to beat RBR if the situation arises? I wonder if RBR will be allowed to beat Ferrari if the situation arises? Now for that Ugly Honda!!! lol it almost looks like something from about 1998. Perhaps the price of fuel h…
  • Here's an idea for GCM. What if he did go and race Formula Ford? But as a manufacturer? There are only a handful of Formula Ford manufacturers around the world - Van Dieman (UK), Mygale (France) and Spectrum (Australian) are the only mainstream bra…
  • I've read that they're already making somewhere near 800hp from the V8's. Amazing when you consider the 2003 Renault V10 had 810hp. Here we are, only three years on and they're pushing out the same figures from an engine with 600cc and two cylinders…
  • I love it! :cool:
  • The 'original' layout was boring for the drivers and boring for the spectators too. I recall an interview with Coulthard claiming that there was nothing 'boring' about Hockenheim pre-2002. As for it being boring for spectators, the crowds used to b…
  • What about Days of Thunder? Corny yes, but it has some of the best racing related one liners you'll find anywhere! :D :cool:
  • Fair enough Brooksey. It was the use of the term "rookies" that caught me out. Never heard anyone use it except RAAFies, not even Army or Navy use it. Do the Army and Navy have rookies? Or some form of it? I'm in a situation where 3 friends of …
  • you'd know that Adam, being ex-RAAFie Ex-RAAFie? Not quite, only 19 dude! I live just a stones throw away from Richmond base, meaning just about everyone i went to school with, as well as there parents have joined or are in the RAAF. I took the eas…
  • • They are routinely made to stand for long periods in uncomfortable positions. • They are made to walk for hours while wearing heavy loads on their backs. • They are bullied by martinets who get in their faces and yell insults at them. • They…
  • Ridiculous... I recall reading that Midland are running the team as a 'business' rather than a race team, which is why they called it MF1 instead of Midlands. They're there to make money, not necessarily to 'race' and if blocking Super Cucumbers en…
  • Never knew the story was about a failed open wheel driver who kicks the shit outta everyone in Neckcar He didn't fail in open wheelers, he lost his ride ;)
  • Got in one for the second race that was just wayyyy too loose. I made a fuss and got them to give me a different one before we started. Should have stayed in the first one. Remember loose is fast - on the edge of out of control ;)
  • Makes me believe this talk of 'Toyota engined Williams Lexus' is a croc of shit. Perhaps Frank really is commited to Cosworth power? Webbo must be dissapointed...
  • it is nice to see a bit of an upswing in the posting here tho eh? Even if they are all very cynical.
  • It's too bad they aren't there. Maybe RedBull could have bought them an re-named them "Super Lucky Mega Taste Fortune Drink team". With Smile. :hehe:
  • Support Midland!
  • Reminds me of a Soviet propaganda poster. I like it. :D
  • How about purchasing a 1/4 or 1/2 page advert in F1 Racing or Autosport?
  • With some luck, more top line drivers like Prost, Piquet, Rosberg, Berger, Lauda and co might join the series.
  • Fair enough RJ. If that is the case, how good are your links with X-Drink? Have you considered endorsing X-Drinks on ForzaMinardi.com, in defiance to Red Bull taking over our team? A few X-Drink banners on top of the page here and there wouldn’t hu…
  • I don't know. I had a try of their pixie drink at work last night. Tastes about as nice as piss and vinegar. Perhaps it was spiked?
  • Perhaps we're looking at this with too much of a negative viewpoint. Firstly, the name. Yes, we're all upset that 'Minardi' is gone, replaced by what we think is a diluted marketing spin with 'Toro Rosso'. However, Red Bull own many well known prog…
  • I think we're going through a point in religious history whereby the Muslims are 'crusading' - much the same as Christians did in the early centuries. Unfortunately, Christianity went through such a phase at a time when travel was by foot or horse, …
  • I didn't make it down there, and kinda glad I didn't after watching the race on TV. Race was punctuated by Safety Cars, and seemed pretty boring in the end. It's a shame because A1 looks like such a good concept, and the cars look fantastic, but som…

  • I guess when it all comes down to it, no.
  • Perhaps make the CD player the prize for next years FM.com/OzMinardi tipping competition? Or, continue with the go-kart comp at this years Grand Prix, and invite STR...this might test just how commited the team really are to their supporters - espe…
  • What happened to the CD player? :P
