Pump gas is a real downer but I've been there before. What I want to know was how it felt as you passed through the gearshifts and speed ranges as well as how it felt as you brought her back down. Thanks!! |

MKSixer - Correct, 1/2 mile.
It felt GREAT to run the gears = biggest challenge was finding the right shift pattern to maximize the power delivery. First run was basically a fact finding mission, best run was last run of the day. Total distance of the air strip was just over a mile with a slight downhill grade to the middle. Basically - flat out down hill to the 1/2 marker, then coast/decelerate uphill. 4 cars went 190+ on Saturday...918 GT was one of them. I just had the luck of being staged with 2 BMW's - a Stroked E92 M3 with DCT, and heavily tuned/modded F10 M5. I held off the stroked M3, but the F10 M5 was a beast! Last 1/8 he took off like a rocket. |

Is it too late to comment on coconut water? Harmless Harvest is the only one that tastes like what you get out of a coconut. The others have the consistency of jizz, and are as similar to coconut as soy turkey is to the real thing. I tried Zico and one sip was more than enough for me. Awful. I feel like it's not even worth your time - they've processed the crap of of it.
Also, how bout that Spain GP? AMG Petronas can suck it. |

How can you have the most dominant car in F1 history and combine it with the most ridiculous strategy, driver treatment, and general ham-fistedness ever witnessed in the sport? This is starting to go beyond the McLaren debacles of 2004-2013. I was a guest of the team for the German GP at Hockenheimring a few years back and was thoroughly impressed with the operation of he team. Ross Brawn. I met The Rat, Nico, MSC, and a host of team members who knew what they were about. They formed the foundation to the success that is being achieved today. I have no idea what is going on now. Let me stop before I have an aneurism. AMG-Petronas F1 - Get your crap together. |

Sadly, the timing is not working out. That is going to be a super busy time and I just cannot justify the time.

According to the foodbabe, Zico and O.N.E., the two brands we're buying aren't the worst of the bunch. (in the tetra packing) But either way, when you're ingesting a large quantity of something regularly, it's best to find the healthiest option. Thanks to you coconut water snobs, i'll likely be spending more money on this shit now. We already purchase some Suja products, so maybe our grocery store carries their Cocount water as well. So far that i've seen, they only carry the Zico and ONE. So you bastards might be costing me more gas money too. Jerks. Is it sad or brilliant that you can watch an entire highlight of a F1 race in a 5 min youtube video? And about 2 min of that is fluff shots of the crew, fans, etc... Awesome! I take it that's sooner than expected?
