Redline race controls? Huh. Would that happen to be an analog
race control?

Well rest assured. No amount of yelling will drive me from this group.
I have been here from the start and like racing, so I have no plans to
leave. Even after this little tirade.

I have been light on you guys until this past few days. Just ask the
flightsim people :-)

Don't let Greg bother you too much --- it's like the weather here in New
England: just wait five minutes and it'll change...8^)

Kinda like how ECCI has analogue controllers too. What a concept.

Everybody has to do something to feel important... many people attempt
to blow out the candles of others so their own seems to shine more
brightly. Sad, pathetic, but true...

Yeah, but I forgot to mention the recent episode of you thinking Pocono
wasn't on the NASCAR Winston Cup schedule anymore since it wasn't in N3...

I mean it man. You crack me up, sometimes. ;-)

Geez...stay off RAS for a few days and look what happens....organized
flames! Greg, every dog has his day - looks like this one's for
you.... I hope you take it all for what it's worth. Obviously, your
opinions have kept a lot of people from getting bored with this forum.
Like I said, I lost track of some of these threads. What in heck did
you do to generate this sort of reaction? Not even Schumi bashing gets
this order of magnitude.............

Well, that "accomplishment" of being on this ng THAT long probably is
the
reason for your frequent "I know best, who are u anyway?" behaviour...

Yeah, well. Its not always all about hotlapping either. Some folks enjoy
being immersed in the sim and FF helps a lot, at least with GPL. And yes,
there are some folks out there that will blow your doors off now matter how
good your analog wheel is, considering some are using joysticks.

Yeah...something like that. Although I don't see many nicknames with a
"marca registrada" attached to them, nor do I see too many people
claiming to know, from halfway across the world, when "the Ferrari
Bigwigs" are lying -- especially since even Jo Bauer now admits they've
been looking at the same barge boards all weekend. But then, I don't
have a radio show to advertise either. Must be because my IQ doesn't
match my shoe size. Bummer. And I so much wanted the respect and
admiration of my peers ... the shame of it all! Tim, what can I do to
redeem myself in your eyes?

listen to their radio show?

Pretty hypocritical comment, Barton.
