I'm looking for a good F1 site or print publication. I am wanting to learn about the technical side to the cars. Engine designs, trans, how they implement the shifting, how the pneumatic lifters are charged, yada yada.

Is it just me or does he really seem to have lost it this weekend? With the owner giving him the deep 6 and then driving the car himself and getting his first win ever. He then tells us the guy is a poor driver. What does that make him? :-) Pete "Ric Seyler" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... LOL The header says Formula 1, not Monkey 1!! :-)

If you catch the subtitles in his conversations you can see he knows nothing about the mechanicals of a car either. He has asked where to look for the water pump before..... not much of a racer. LOL Pete wrote:

He's easily conned by the look of it. I still can't believe he thinks he has a car that does 10's in the quarter. Plus its stock to boot. Whoever sold it to him really saw any easy mark.
