10 years today, 4/8/12, goodnight girls, never forgotten, not ever!

Rest in Peace a friend of mine's Father.

LFSW is MaurizioNaselli, I know this is a very difficult time for him and just wanted to show him some support here.

May not mean much to those who ain't from the UK, but today we mourn the sad passing of commentator Sid Waddell, known for his colourful descriptions , his use of the English language and that Geordie accent.

Some of my favourite quotes has come from the man himself

Quote :

“Bristow reasons . . . Bristow quickens ... Aaah, Bristow.”

“He's about as predictable as a Wasp on speed”

“Look at the man go, its like trying to stop a waterbuffalo with a pea-shooter”

“It's like trying to pin down a kangaroo on a trampoline”

“It's the nearest thing to public execution this side of Saudi Arabia.”

“He looks about as happy as a penguin in a microwave.”

Quote from Speed Senna :

Oh thats bad

RIP Maurizio

As i understand we are talking about his father, not Maurizio.

R.I.P.

(Sorry for my misunderstanding... my english...)

Anyways R.I.P. father... my condolences to Maurizio and to his family.

R.I.P to the person killed in the Targa Adelaide rally yesterday.

Some may remember mx5 pictures in the car thread, THOSE pictures with the motorholics girls, and a couple of them with a very special lady sat in the middle of the bonnet, one of the true loves of my life, my charlotte.

This was a test fitting she did for a mate if his brides wedding dress as she was pretty much the same size and build, and it was to be a suprise wedding, and boom, here she is...



Last night, she was taken away, and as much as it sounds like a pun, she really did live for speed, and went doing what she loved, motorsport.

RIP Sid Watkins

Rest in peace Prof Sid

Prod Sid's contribution to F1 is one we as fans will always be indebted to, especially the work put in after the death of Senna. Without the work, the sport would have been poorer place, Hakkinen's crash in Adelaide being a prime example.

Not a great believer in an afterlife nor am I a particularity religious man , however I would like to think that he is currently fishing alongside Senna right now.

A great lifesaver of F1 drivers has passed away.

Rest In Peace Prof

RIP Paul Walker. It seriously hurts me to write that. You'll be greatly missed.
