I keep getting this message over the radio
" watch out for debbie ( pronounced as daybie by some american sounding
man ) "
who is daybie and what is she doing on the tracks in GP4 ?
is she one of those guys in orange suit with folded arms ?

That would be "debris", i.e. chucks of material that's fallen off other cars
as they either hit eachoter of something solid along the track.

I'll take the bait.. Debris perhaps? - as in strewn bits of car...
Nah, he's talking about that famous over-aggressive French driver, Jacques
Debris..........."Watch out for Debris!"<G>
Wow. That's a funny one. Does the guy say "'day-bre"? The correct
pronunciation, or at least the accepted pronunciation, is "de-'bre".
Now it's a different story if there's a chick named Debbie, soakin' drunk,
who dashes onto the track as the cars head into turn one. Then Debbie turns
into debris, and they are one and the same thing.

Just figure that Geoff Crammonds' mastery of English pronunciation is as
complete as his mastery of racing physics and computer programming...
I am a pom and I pronounce it "d'bree". Some people say "deb-ree". Nobody
says "day-bree".

I expect it is supposed to be "debrie" as in broken bits of cars on
the track after a crash.

or "daybrie"
which was how the game pronounced it

That was pretty funny. Dave Henrie is also funny. He usually gets me to
chuckle each time I read this group.
"Ped Xing" <
He usually gets me to
guess what my wife's name is...that's why I've been very quiet in this
thread.
