Default Webber & SPA

If you didn't catch the F1 last night you missed a great race. Webber pulled off one of the fastest & bravest moves I've seen in a very long time passing Alonso around the OUTSIDE going through Eau Rouge.
He showed some balls last night let me tell ya ! It was a monster of a move and must have made Alonso think ' Farkin 'ell '

All good, the wind kept the fire following along the ranges. The tip has caught fire, so may take a few days to put out. Alot of thick black smoke last night. And the sun is red this morning

I stumbled across this today, I will watch it for a laugh.
The life and death of the Taurus (goodbye sweet one, the worlds not ready for you yet - PerformanceForums

The gist is that they have bought a dead ugly car in Sydney, and are planning to kill it.
