    ALMS: The Lion King

    After another Allan McNish masterpiece at the expense of ‘The Lion,’ Peugeot learned that to beat Audi, they must first deal with the Scot’s carnivorous approach to racing.

    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    This Marshall Pruett fellow seems to write some good articles.. the few of them that I have read have all been good reads.

    I can't tell if you're being sarcastic. Marshall Pruett is MPME on UCP, IIRC.

    He's an idiot, I say!

    He needs some adjustments to his settings, then he'll be just fine.

    Not sarcastic, just.. say things differentwise. I'd say things like that to someone's face, see.

    That's not the kind of sarcasm I meant. What I meant was, were you being sarcastic about not knowing that Marshall Pruett is a UCP member
    EDIT: Everbody took it to be a negative thing, I thought you were joking about not knowing who he is. I didnt mean to insult either of you.

    Wow, cool for being a UCP member too.

    Liked the overall coverage of ALMS, especially when I don't really follow it.

    Oh, right, yea.. I knew he was around but I'd forgotten the username.

    Holy crap! There's a famous person (besides James Glickenhaus) on this website!

    Our dingy backwater town of an internets forum is finally becoming classier! Amazing!
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    I beg to differ.
