I'll take a bow to that! Thanks!

I must say it is very interesting to hear all the comments at the track, ranging from, "I didn't think the RS had that rear wing" to "when did they come out with this model" to "so, what's up with the RX" The cool part is the X can so easily be mistaken for the S with the graphics font being so close to the OEM RS graphics. Gotta keep it lively!

LMAO! Not even gonna lie, before I knew you, I thought, "Sick! A japanese baseball player on RL!" One of these days we'll have to go back for an F1 race.

Back in high school, all I talked about were cars, with friends who knew and cared nothing about them. Their response was always the same, "Dude! Shut up! F***in car nerd!"

A fun thread. Some of these are really entertaining! Mine is at the end...

Yeah, well, you missed your calling as a graphic artist!

I guess not very original in today's standards, but I've been around this board since the old board was still in place (anyone remember that one - the lower tech version??) and guys like Viken ruled the board. Somehow Viken set the precedence to use our full names back then, or at least he did so, and I followed and I've been too lazy to change it!
Yes, I remember. But I would have never guessed that Oleg Steciw was your actual name!

People I use to know from my BBS days use to call me Pat in person. I also go by Gus and Tree because I am so damn tall. Though my real name is Timothy or just Tim!
Do you also go by Sybil?

For some reason, the juxtaposition of "gastro", "scope" and "jockey" makes me want to postpone that future colonoscopy!

OK, so... you're a French orgasm. But "what's the story with your login/user name?"

My last name is hyphenated with Leigh being the first name; ninth generation of the hyphen. For some reason I still haven't had explained to my satisfaction my parents made my middle name Leigh as well; apparently after some negotiation with my grandfather. Of course someone had to take note and started to call me Leigh squared so Leigh2 became a handy user name

spent a great deal of my youth pretending that one day i would be a Concert Pianist.

found that some meters (timing) felt more "natural" for me.my favorite was allegretto or allegro

then, i thought i would race cars. since i'm neither the fastest or the slowest, once again i'm "a little fast".

I also harken back to the old days when Viken was The Mod. I stuck with it because it reminds me to think about what I post since there is no hiding behind a real name
