  9. Seemed like a few people wanted them at the same time when I had mine up for sale. Haha most people I've seen lately just use their hands! GLWTS mate I'm in no rush, somebody out there will want it.
  10. Yep that was a big one as well, Marshall's were lucky.
  11. Strange. I sold one a few months ago for the same price and it went in a few days. Maybe nobody is making hands free call these days..
  12. Ecclestone happy if struggling teams collapse Bernie Ecclestone has issued a stinging warning to struggling F1 teams. Amid all the noise about the urgent need for cost cutting, the sport's chief executive insists he has no fear that some teams are facing financial collapse. "I do not fear it," he told Kleine Zeitung newspaper. "I would even be happy about it. "It's like a poker game -- you don't know what the others hold in their hands. If you can't afford to be in this game, you should not be here," Ecclestone added. The 83-year-old Briton made clear he is much more worried about other things, like the lack of noise from the new V6 engines, and certain rules. "It's ridiculous," he says, "what drivers are being punished for -- like driving over a white line. These are all drivers who don't need rules like that. "We need rules like we had in the past," added Ecclestone. Mercedes team chairman and triple world champion Niki Lauda could not agree more. "We are losing the audience," he is quoted by Austria's laola1, "because there are no more racers. "Bring back the old days when Piquet gave the others one in the head," said Lauda, undoubtedly referring to the day in 1982 when Nelson Piquet punched and kicked the helmeted Elisio Salazar. 1997 world champion Jacques Villeneuve, however, does not agree with Ecclestone that the lack of noise from the new turbo engines is among F1's biggest problems. "I've watched many races with the (television) sound turned off," he laughed in an interview with motorline.cc. "To me, it doesn't matter as long as we see a good show. The problem with the new engines is that they give the impression that they have no power. "The turbos in the 80s were not much louder, but when you looked at the cars, you could see how much power they had," Villeneuve added.

  17. This was only last Summer I think, but fairly recently. No changes were made they just replaced the catch fencing. The car actually went through the catch fencing and over the Ambulance gate. 2011 according to the upload date I'd presume they would have changed either the banking, or the design of the fence, a lot of places have them like this I think: So that the cars can't go over and through the gap It knocked down the catch fencing and went OVER the Ambulance gate where there was no fencing and still isn't, 100/1 chance it went directly over the gate, just missing the Marshall's Post at Paddock.

  19. Yes both drivers were OK, the MR2 that ended up in the car park, landed where the ice cream van is normally parked and always has a queue, but he had run out of some gas he uses and 10 mins earlier drove down in the van to the paddock to re-gas some equipment...sooo lucky...
  20. This is one of the biggest shunts at Brands, so many lucky people. Car could have so easily gone into the Paddock Grandstand. MR2 Challenge Race. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=eVd1HVlJD3A
