thanks, that sounds easier too- i just need to be in ballpark- for quick conversion-

so for every 10k it woudl be 6 miles- 50k would be 30 miles per hour, 100k woudl be 60, and 300k around 180 mph- almost top speed- add another 50k for almost top speed of 220 mph

[Lockbox]

In 2nd practice Fernando is in 2nd place, a tenth off Max while Lance is.... 18th over a second off.... I give it the rest of this year and next season before Lawrence has to make the difficult decision if he really wants a Championship Winning Team.

My biggest problem was the awesomeness of Yvette, the HOT BLONDE that sat next to Me !!! Daayyyuuum was She a Dreamboat, tall with legs that could have been covered in bandaids from cutting them shaving and still looked great. Proportioned perfectly...

I’ll bet her mother probably carried a shotgun too !

[Chode]

welcome

[Chode]

100%

a seat for life?

or a shot at the title???

“Did I thoroughly confuse You yet ?”

Not at all!

I always use the C x 9 divided by 5 + 32. My brain is a math brain.

Thanks for your input!

“LOOK BOO-BOO, A PIC-A-NIC BASKET !!!”

You got it!

To get to the southern part of my county, Gallatin, folks have to drive through about 8 miles of Jellystone (slower speed limits and Park Rangers who hate vehicles).

The (Bad) Weatherman Of The Race goes to:

George Russell

Russell was left somewhat embarrassed after he reported ‘rain’ at the Spanish Grand Prix.

The Mercedes driver wondered why he was the only one who had seen the spots at Turn 5 of the Circuit de Barcelona Catalunya at the halfway stage of the 66-lap event.

He radioed his team to warn them of the precipitation...Russell’s engineer then filled him in on the situation and confirmed that it must have been his own sweat he had mistaken for rain.
