Yeah, those were the days.  Someone brought up the subject of those shirts and
Paul said that driving *for* him is quite different from driving against him.
No doubt Mikey wouldn't use 'the knife' at Indy...  All he had to do was get on
the radio and tell Paul to quite blocking him.  Failing that a call to the pits
to make sure that Paul has a 'slow' stop and bang, problem solved.  Of course,
it never came down to that so just as well.  Now that Mikey is an owner, it'll
be interesting.

I missed the CART race.  Well, no I didn't.  I don't bother watching them these
days.  F1 actually has better racing now...
