Default The things you overhear...

I just had dinner at the Golden Cantina, near Willow Springs, and heard a couple of sloppy drunk jackasses talking.

One said "I could beat Mark Anderson...If you gave me the right car..."

The other said "I passed Mark Anderson once....but then he passed me right back!"

These guy were pitiful drunk bastards. Loud and sloppy drunk. Nobody on this list I hope. If so, you owe the staff and patrons of the Cantina an apology.

I'm guessing that the poor sod is suffereing from that old "too many friends who won't give me the right car..." syndrome. Just add alcohol!

Anybody who watches Mark's in-car videos knows why he wins. Amazingly aggressive with the skill to pull it off. Gives me the Heebie-Jeebies just to watch.

If you want to see about 15 min. of Mark slicing and dicing through PACKS of cars you need to get the 928 EVOLUTION DVD... Mark was kind enough to donate race footage to my project and I used a BUNCH OF IT!
