Thumbs up Nice preview of Le Mans 24h

I'm really looking forward to the Le Mans 24 Hours this year with all the experimental prototypes that are being introduced!

Re: Nice preview of Le Mans 24h

Indeed, and we have our friend Jordan Taylor in the mix. What a career he's already established for himself....at 21 years old, wow.
Great kid, best of luck Jordan!!

Re: Nice preview of Le Mans 24h

The official website says that there will be a dedicated web tv site (http://www.lemans-tv.com/) providing 24 hour coverage of the event too. That could be ncie during those (thankfully relatively brief) blocks of time when Speed is not broadcasting the race.

They seem to be speaking English as well as something that resembles a mildly corrupted form of Italian.

"I think, therefore I am." And if you, um, don't think?

As Dirty Harry once said, "A man's gotta know his limitations." Really, dude, at least do a Google search first. I mean, like, before you capitalize and underline.

Great link!

I bet an off-camera Pirro van around wouldn't be that far off Bruce. Ol' Emmanuel strikes me in more ways than one that he might be a worthy Euro counterpart to Bruce. "Ha-ha!"

Ted: man, I'm slow.... I just now got the joke! But I don't appreciate, not one bit.

I must therefore taunt you in your own language: Go and boil your bottoms, son of a silly person! Fetchez la vache!

Now go away, or I shall taunt you a second time!
