    Yup. Just part of stupid ass Lemans w/ over budget gt40 year.
    Last time when Ford (race with Jaguar name around 2001 to 2005ish) on F1, it was about 3 seconds per laps slower. It means Ferrari will lap the FORD at around 30 laps on shorter circuit. LOL.

    Thanks, Gman. I got the story in a six minute documentary and didn't have to sit through a two hour movie.

    While it happened, it's also a bit silly.

    Ford, versus, Ferrari.... shaking head.

    Actual Benneton-Ford vs Ferrari race season that people give a little shit.

    1992 when Michael Schumacher drove it. (Start 3:25)

    I heard an interesting podcast with an epidemiologist the other day all about the difference between eating raw salt water dish vs raw fresh water fish that was pretty interesting. Actually, the podcast was about food borne illnesses, and the later was covered pretty well.

    Anyway, I like trying new foods and feel like there is a whole world of Asian cuisine I'm missing out on.

    You should check out a show called Fastest Car on Netflix.

    The number of Fords/Hondas/station wagons/pick up trucks etc. putting beat downs on super cars might surprise you.

    Souping up daily drivers to go fast in a straight line doesn't really interest me. Maybe that's why I didn't like the Fast and Furious series. Or maybe it was because they were stupid. It's tough to tell.
