The Daily Show on 'The Comedy Channel' has a solution for the problmes of too much speed at Texas. Unfortunately the non racing fan bias is extremely evident in their humour. I am always intrigued by the differences in Racing Fans and NON_RACING_FANS. What is different about me than Jon Stewart. We both have, I assume, a College Education. I'm a Northern based West Coast type. He's a Northern East Coaster. He has a TV show, I have....well we're similar in most respects...but I get it...(racing) and he doesn't. Why? back on topic. The solution. Change the D shape at Texas to a Square track with 90 degree corners. It looked funny, I smirked a-bit, it's a shame the rest of the fun was poking at me and other fans not with us. Real Player owners can see highlights of The Daily Show on their Real channels. dave henrie
You know, I saw that too. Jon Stewart usually cracks me up, but I didn't get the rectangular-track-joke, because it just reminded me of Indy. :) "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:qYTH6.95473$[email hidden]... > The Daily Show on 'The Comedy Channel' has a solution for the problmesof > too much speed at Texas.

Next thing you know they'll be making triangle-shaped track jokes (i.e. Pocono). On Wed, 02 May 2001 20:58:36 GMT, "Aubrey" <[email hidden]> wrote:
