    I agree just think companies would line up for that chance

    That's how Kamui Kobayashi bought himself a Caterham F1 seat this year.

    Fans donated over a million UK pounds. And he's driving for no pay.


    Don't usually like pay drivers taking up seats but think it's amazing he got that level of fan support and proof people think he deserves a drive.

    I was more surprised that a Million pound was enough for the race seat.

    Hope you are staying warm over there mike... Meanwhile I'm sitting here with the on air-con on at 2am.

    Right now its just 5 degrees this morning. I won't even walk outside in this. Except to start the car to warm up when the old lady leaves. No choice there. Lol

    Yeah true. Hopefully it means they wanted him more than needed more money. Not that he was all they could get with money.

    STUPID......so, next move is to take talledga out of chase. your telling me that david ragen now has a chance? he whens a restrictor race then when tallegadea fall race and he advances. STUPID. and here is how the last race goes....all four guys will have clean track around them, no way anyone races tem hard..think parade for 350 miles, then the last pit stop all 4 guys come out 1-4, not that exciting of a finish. last four guys in ( ambrose, newman, menard and mcmurray) have zero chance of winning a championship. move helps hamlin, harvick and klye. really like klye now (points will reset after kansas) and he catches back up.....more to come after i finish throwing up

    Don't mind the 7, but the 1 sounds like it might be a killer.

    got caught up and this weeks race hubs this morning..a few notes from an otherwise shity show. matt clark is back and as worthless as ever. daniel trotta seemed to have lipo as her belly is gone, however, she still has chubbby legs and puffy checks. should have just toned down instead of going for the hour glass look. and is it me or is denny hamlin turning in to cole trickle? looks just like him with the greasy long hair look.

    on another note, seems like the no height limit may be the biggest change of all this year. i think that in the early races, guys that run loose cars will be ones to watch....im thinking klye and biffle as the two best with loose cars unless stewy is 100%

    Wow do you ever come as a big insecure jackass. I'd wager Matt Clark has forgot more about Nascar than your pompous ass will know in a lifetime. There was a reason he ran 48 pit crew for 7 years

    I would hope matt has more knowledge then me. I was referring to his segments. Mattys diner?..i know its geared for a wider audience but i would rather have hammond or larry mac talk tech stuff. As for interviews i like brynes , marty smith and dilner. They seem to ask better questions and dont always follow the company line...thats all i was saying

    Just for fun and out of boredom today, i ran the bio for matt. While he worked at hendrick he hardly ran the team. Was a jackman and pit crew member. Then became a pit crew coach for the 48 then moved to rcr. His background is administration as an asst ad and coach. Nice carreer path and very impressive. All this came from his bio at fox.

    This of course, explains his interview stlye. Which now i understand. He treats this a job type deal.

    None the less, as this forum is about picking winners and making money...i think i got him. As do mike you and several others.
