Wink EXTENDED Roger Williamson Fatal Crash

It was 1973 though ... good thing we've learnt a lot since then, but it's still tragic that it always seems to take things like this before changes are ever made

Blah, blah, blah. You have had most of your posts deleted for various violations on Rennlist. Take a couple weeks of vacation to think about what is appropriate here. When you come back, if you post any more of this junk, you will be gone permanently.

Why there sure was. Could it be the same person? Could it be a friend of CC or GR?

We need to convene a special sub-committee that may or may not exist to investigate that possibility

True, but given a few tries, I bet he could get it right.

I did some research on this guy. He's in Shenyang, China, using apnic.net on what appears to be a public wi-fi kind of thing. I looked myself up and was amazed! It shows what size screen I'm using and everything. The guy in question had an ip address that did not show those details, which is why I think he's using a public computer or port. Check this out at http://cqcounter.com/whois/ His most recent ip addresses have been 123.186.68.108 and 123.186.70.92 It even lists your ip address on the left side of your screen. Click it and see how many details can be had. It's kinda cool.

With all that said, Sunday, I'm wondering if a permanent ban is a better solution?

The mere fact that I know exactly who you're referring to concerns me - he was good for a lot of laughs though. I just remember getting a good chuckle that CC had spend thousands on an HD video system but had his battery held in with some kind of plastic thing!!! He had the same level of open-mindedness as I see in my 3 year old these days.

Those were good days...lost some good guys from that time but they'll be backs someday.

How about eagerly DEing a 500 hp TT thru Road America's Kink, but won't race because it's too dangerous?

Nothing better than taking a drive down memory lane and hitting all the apexes.

Good luck down at Daytona Rick. Kick some butt...

Or having the idea that with ABS and PSM all you need to do is floor it and mash the brakes around the track and let the car drive? CC is/was a smart person in some ways and blindingly clueless in others. People as an example

If your freaking camel toe thread had actually featured humanity, it might still be here. But nooooooooooooo, you had to actually post pictures of camels.
