Ferrari names Schumacher as new CEO

[jediali]

not an F1 fan but:

??;)

[Vaigra]

Shocked much? I must say I am.
As good as he might be at leading a team or how good a driver he is, having him as CEO when he has no management experience seems a bit foolish.

"Schumacher revealed that Maranello is developing a successor to the Enzo supercar. It will be faster than Bugatti Veyron, with a top speed of at least 300 mph. " ;)
Guess FerrariPrinze was right..

[jediali]

also: "To compensate the lack of displacement, the V12 is fed by twin-turbochargers per cylinder. For better weight distribution, these two dozens turbochargers are installed in the cockpit next to the driver and right behind the air conditioning outlets, taking advantage of the cooling air flow" :)

[Vaigra]

Personally, I can't wait for the CS version. I love manuals in cars but manual labour takes things on to a whole new level.

[Coventrysucks]

With Schumacher at the helm never again will a TV set sit, broken and unusable. No more will their gardens and green spaces appear shabby and untended, and the 5-a-side factory team will always be on time for a match; that's for certain.

[scottie300z]

my favorite part:


According to Schumacher, carbon-fiber engine block will not only reduce weight substantially, but it will absorb the carbon-dioxide produced in the combustion chambers and result in carbon-fiber-dioxide. "It actually helps strengthening the block. The solid carbon-fiber-dioxide can be removed from the engine by our technicians after a period of time." Our question is, will the waste decompound back into CO2 in the nature ? "It doesn't matter, we will dump the waste at the backyard of Lamborghini. It's just miles away from our headquarters, very convenient."

[bmwpower]

WTF!! CEO of Ferrari... i mean sure the guy can draw a mean line but that's too much. I figure he'll be more useful then the Queen but less then Steve Jobs..the question is where in that gap will he lie. That car they are building will be unnatural though..that type of power can throw the earth off it's orbit..

edit: ok read the entire link...has Ferrari finally gone insane?? They saw power corrupts..but not even that captures this car..

[chamal_a]

April Fools :D

[bmwpower]

^^ wait is this a joke... dammit it better not be, I just got butt naked to celebrate! lol no i kid..but i mean shouldn't this car be illegal, i think the UN should declare it a threat to humanity..who ever heard of 2 turbos per cylinder..

[bmwpower]

SOFB it's april fools..omg i feel like such a dumbass..jediali that was cruel..

BTW i would like to mention that it is only 9:49 in toronto on march 30th.. i mean have some heart..to build a man up like that and then crush him (insert crying emoticon which captures the crushed dreams of all ferrari fans who were insane enough to believe this could happen despite recognising the fact that it was impossible)

[The_Canuck]

SOFB it's april fools..omg i feel like such a dumbass..jediali that was cruel..

Well it was funny for the rest of us. :D

You know I was expecting more along the lines of sicilian or someon to fall for this...

[bmwpower]

He still can and most probably will. We just need the posts mentioning April Fools removing.

[The_Canuck]

He still can and most probably will. We just need the posts mentioning April Fools removing.

Ill delete mine if very one else does, aldo jediali, remove the warning. I didn't catch it as April Fools, (which is tormorrow!) until I saw the warning. :p

[carsnut]

24 TURBOS??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

[bmwpower]

O man the warning..nice i was wondering why there were two arrows pointing at nothing..

[Zytek_Fan]

The carbon fibre engine block part gave it away :p

[DesmoRob]

Too bad its fake. When schumi started using his carbon-fibre dioxide logic I thought even I'd have a shot at being CEO of something. Ah well.

[jediali]

more?:
http://www.autozine.org/Misc/April_fool/Joke.html

my favorite is 2004's "Bugatti Veyron ready to launch", how pessimistic

I like the lotus load-lugga a lot :), it will sell in Texas!

[dydzi]

lol great one :D the last para is especially amusing:


The price of F117A Schumacher will be more expensive than Enzo, simply because Schumacher thinks his name more valuable than Enzo Ferrari. Apart from the car, customers will get a driving lesson by Schumacher himself and his photographs with original signature, as he has a lot of stocks no one wants.

[sicilian973-2]

booooooooooo....im gonna kill myself

[2ndclasscitizen]

Best. Post. Ever.

[sicilian973-2]

im so confused...?

[2ndclasscitizen]

That's because you're a complete fool.

[Vaigra]

Best. Post. Ever.
Times 2.
Here's hoping he has the guts to go through with it.

[Pando]

Where's the unedited post??? I'll pay you virtual gold for it.

[jediali]

all i did was remove a useful clue form the original, no major alteration

[Pando]

I mean Ferrarisicilianprince90210's post #21.

[2ndclasscitizen]

It was something along the lines of how good a decision it was and then "I told you all so." re the F117A Schumacer.

[Vaigra]

I had a feeling it was something along those lines. You should have quoted it as soon as you saw it.

[sicilian973-2]

That's because you're a complete fool.

hahahaha...i wish you would say that to my face....you would never dare.anyways this is true.lol

[Pando]

Please Vaigra, can we be "nice" to him?

[sicilian973-2]

dude.didnt say i told you so..besides the while "carbon block" gave it away

[Pando]

Yeah, you're right it was quite believable until that point. Why did you edit your post?

[IBrake4Rainbows]

hahahaha...i wish you would say that to my face....you would never dare.anyways this is true.lol

Wow.....cyber threats.

saying it to your face would require a 22 hour plane trip. i hardly think it's worth the effort.

Still, good joke. better than Kia's "I-Kia - the car you put together yourself" joke.

[sicilian973-2]

i was asking if the CEO part waas atleast true.

[Pando]

Sure, why did you edit your post then?

[Vaigra]

Please Vaigra, can we be "nice" to him?
I'm nice to him all the time, I'm pretty certain of that :)
You still practicing your martial arts? I think somebody with hella money should pay for us to travel to the states and meet up with FerrariPrinze. Maybe we've got him all wrong and a meeting would resolve everything...

[sicilian973-2]

Sure, why did you edit your post then?

because i realized it was all fake....and viagra if you guys came to NY,you guys would never wanna go back,its some crazy shit.

[cmcpokey]

having been to NYC, and staten island as well, i enjoy seeing the city, but am always glad to leave by the end of it. so more power to you for living there, but i wouldnt wish living there on anyone.

umm, yeah. sure. but staten island sucks. so does harlem. brooklyn sucks in places, but overall i don't dislike it. but upper east side is where i spent most of my time. and i could live there for a few months without wanting to kill myself. personally i like having a 2000 sq ft house, and paying as much a month for it as you pay for a parking spot in the city.

[Kitdy]

What a g4ngst4.

Could you guys just leave him alone?

EDIT: Methinks this is all just an act.

[sicilian973-2]

[baddabang]

I'll come say it to your face. Judging by your username you are short little Italian douche bag.


because i realized it was all fake....and viagra if you guys came to NY,you guys would never wanna go back,its some crazy shit.

Ok I've been to NYC more times then I can remember, and I lived outside of the city for a wile when I was in 2nd-3rd grade. It's a nice place to visit every now and then but I would never choose to live there.


i aint tryn to be gangster.im just a hood person.hit me up on myspace

STFU you live on Staten Island it's like NYC's suburbia. It seems all the pollution from the land fill has gone to your head. Now go make me a pizza.

[Zytek_Fan]

Seattle > NYC

[kingofthering]

it is a place where only the strong survive.I live here on Staten Island,in Stapleton.Yet im from Brooklyn,have family in Harlem and all over the city>I must say ive seen tourists scared in times square.Times Square is pussy.Its where you go with your family and what not.

Right... I went to Chinatown in New York and survived.

You're the you-know-what if you think New York is where the strong survive.

That's New Jersey.

[The_Canuck]

Right... I went to Chinatown in New York and survived.


Aren't you Chinese? Or American-Chinese?

[kingofthering]

Yeah... but I look Korean-ish to some people.

[sicilian973-2]

baddabang.im moving to L.E.S,more conviniently located than SI.Ill be waiting for you.ANd Seattle sucks

[Cyco]

They obviously don't suck as much as your schooling...... You really need to learn some basic grammar to ever be taken at all seriously.

[jorismo]

They obviously don't suck as much as your schooling...... You really need to learn some basic grammar to ever be taken at all seriously.

You´re so right... Most of the time I can´t understand a thing he´s saying... Most of the non-english speaking members are more understandable than he is...

[Rockefella]

What a g4ngst4.

I'm brooklyn born and bred ni99a!

[sicilian973-2]

shut up.lol.

[Wouter Melissen]

shut up.lol.

I don't think you are in a position to tell other people what to do. Work on your grammar and attitude and there might be a point in the future that you can give other people suggestions. The distant future that is.

[jorismo]

You are too kind...

[Rockefella]

shut up.lol.

I'm actually from Brooklyn though.

[Pando]

I'm nice to him all the time, I'm pretty certain of that :)
You still practicing your martial arts? I think somebody with hella money should pay for us to travel to the states and meet up with FerrariPrinze. Maybe we've got him all wrong and a meeting would resolve everything...Sure am and I've picked it up during the last year too, I'm good to go. :) We should find out which elementary school he goes to first though.

and viagra if you guys came to NY,you guys would never wanna go back,its some crazy shit.LOL!!! Sure Is crazy. :rolleyes: I'm with badda on this one:

It's a nice place to visit every now and then but I would never choose to live there.

Ill be waiting for you.:)

shut up.lol.Will the fun ever stop? This was some of the funniest reading I've had in a while.

[sicilian973-2]

dude.no offense but the usage of your grammar suggests you have NO LIFE.Im talking to a mid 20s virgin.YOU crack me up Pando!!!!!!!!!

[Sledgehammer]

Your right, an educated mid 20's college graduate with a nice resume is headed absolutely nowhere... Need we talk about your grammar usage, or better lack-their-of?

Let me fix that sentence for you.


Dude, no offense but your grammar usage suggests that you don’t have a life. I'm talking to a mid 20's virgin. You crack me up Pando!

[kingofthering]

Mid-20's virgin > 8-year old Ferrari fanboy.

So, do you just get on the UCP Forums to argue and attempt to insult members?

[my porsche]

Your right
Let me fix that sentence for you.

Let me fix that sentence for you.

"You're right..." :)

[Sledgehammer]

I dont get it?

[The_Canuck]

I dont get it?

I don't get it.

:D

[Sledgehammer]

Quack ?

[Timothy (in VA)]

I dont get it?

To quote one of the great thinkers of our time:

Y-O-U-R...
Y-O-U-Apostrophe-R-E...
They're as different as night and day.
Don't you think that night and day are different?
What's wrong with you?

;) :)

[Sledgehammer]

My bad, I've just been working on this terrible seminar paper for the last 7 hours today and most of yesterday...and the day before. I thought it was some echo or some UCP thing I had yet to learn about, so I put "Quack" out their thinking that a ducks quack doesnt echo...:cool:
