Dave Noonan: A quick question about Imola

Imola flagmen question becomes banter about Dave Noonan's identity

A thank-you to Dave Noonan for his GPL Imola asked why so many flagmen stood at the last corner. The thread quickly drifted into jokes that Noonan was really Geoff Crammond, then into music trivia about Jan and Dean and Sam and Dave, and beer talk.

Of course, let me first echo the tremendous thanks for all of your work...this is another classic. It's like a hilly, slightly curvier Monza...a real pleasant track to drive and race. My question is why the crowd of flagmen at the last turn? I am lucky to have a fast system, so I am not experiencing FR slowdowns or anything, but was just wondering why there would be so many flag wavers at that area? It certainly looks odd as you race by, but I am sure there is a reason for it :) Thanks, Marc. -- **************************************************************************** Marc Collins [email hidden] Your mouse has moved.

Well, he had at least two posts this weekend on this forum about this track piracy debacle. But he doesn't post often. And BTW, he doesn't work for Papy, he's Geoff Crammond :) (Goy knows) > Still, I don't care so long as he keeps on producing great tracks:-) Indeed! -- Olav K. Malmin remove spam when replying

Sure do, met him this weekend on a friendly pub somewhere in the UK, and yes, he really IS Geoff Crammond, I saw his driving license as he paid for the first round of beers......

Actually Sam & Dave were responsible for such greats as Soul Man, I Thank You (later covered by Zed Zed Top), Hold On, I'm Comin'... It's a little known fact that Sam used to be half of a duet with Ella Fitzgerald, but they broke up due to dissapointing ticket sales. No one would come into a place advertising "Sam 'n' Ella..."
