Credit goes to Roland Ehnstr?m for the clip, and note it is mono, the actual

The AI cars *do* sound like "Buzzin' Hornets" (I'm not sure I'd recognize a
"Bitten Hero" if I heard one). Thx 4 posting!

Never argue with an idiot. He brings you down to his level, then beats you

This has probably been answered, but I'm only seeing about a half of the posts
lately ....
Anyway, Jordan has used "Bitten Hero" in place of Benson and Henges throughout the
year at tracks where the tobacoo ban is in effect (just like "Buzzin' Hornets" was
used last year). This was not a special tribute caused by the events of 9/11. In
2000, the Jordan featured a hornet painted on its nose, while this year they
changed that to a shark, hence the different phrase. The reason that some teams
were allowed to have tobacco sponsorship displayed at the U.S. Grand Prix (for
example, McLaren with West) and some teams weren't (no Marlboro for Ferrari, no
Lucky Strike for BAR, no Benson and Henges for Jordan) has to do with some arcane
U.S. law stating that a tobacco company can only sponsor cars in one racing
series. So those sponsors not on display had been previously on cars in CART,
Nascar, etc.
