Well I am just glad we have a couple of Formula 1 cars to choose from, unless you are saying that we must back Team Hunter or we are not real Formula 1 folks.
***Just like you were saying that it’s not knocking down Hunter to point out he’s not doing well in the streetracer polls, it’s not knocking down your candidate to point out that his street creds against a Yugo leave much to be desired. If his supposed strength is in streetracing, then let him win streetracing — impress us. After all, it’s just a Yugo he’s up against.

I think there are many on this site, myself and Jim Robinson included from what I have seen, who would take exception to being called anything but Formula 1 adherents, and we back Team Fred. Must be something to that, don’t ya think...
***And yet you yourself tried to bring the argument over to the streetracer side of things. Just be honest, acknowledge that FredForumula1 car only places but doesn’t win in Formula1, and does well (again only placing, not winning) in Streetracing. By taking exception to being called “anything but” Formula1 adherents, you are overlooking the fact that the Formula1 crowd has a better Formula1 car than yours. Fred’s Formula1 car is “good enough” to mullify the Formula1 fans, but that will only happen after the primaries and it is consequently Team Fred’s job to beat the Yugo, since that is such a strong aspect of your team’s supposed creds.

Well I think you have acknowledged that we other F1 fans at FR had our own F1 car (I think you did) That is tuned more for the street race ahead. That is what you need to do to your F1 car as well to move on up.

Remember the primaries AND the general are not specialized races, again we are not voting on Conservative of the Year. If it were only us voting it would be different. But we need our ideas in the marketplace and to get there it is a broad based street race. It is not just purist we have to win over, after all look at how well Rudy does. Of course it is my hope that he is only doing well because no one has really paid attention yet, but there are a variety of folks in the Republican camp and we don’t hold the corner market. That’s politics, the win is the thing as long as you can get it and satisfy as much as possible your ideals. I wish it were not so and it creates some disappointment to say the least, but until we change tracks and the rules, that’s the race we are in.
