"If my wife lets me"...what are you, a man or a mouse, b-tone??



The only thing that helps me maintain my slender grip on reality is the friendship I share with my collection of singing potatoes.

"I have recorded ALL the races and qualifying sessions since the 2000 Malaysian GP. I watch probably one every day" You seriously watch one everyday???? do you work???

I think you win the biggest F1 fan! either that or you've lost your marbles.................

I got three guinea pigs. One is called Kimi. Does this count for anything?

REHAB IS FOR QUITTERS

Any excuse to boast nowadays...




HISTORIC BTCC VIDEOS

No, I don't work. I'm only 16.

I read Murray Walker's Autobiography as well.

Well, I have a video collection of every BBC and ITV highlights programme since 1983. That's 20 1/2 seasons, two 8 hour LP cassettes per season totalling something like 330 hours worth of F1. I am missing Thierry Boutsen's victory at Hungary in 1989 and Imola 1994 (BBC showed a news prog/documentary/tribute thingy instead of the regular highlights prog) but otherwise the collection is complete.

I still have my JPS Lotus sweatbands bought at the 1985 British GP, a list of bookmarks that goes off the bottom of the page, countless biogs and statistical books, a stack of magazines about 3 ft high dating back to 1981 (GP International, Autosport, F1 News, F1 Racing), a picture of Keke Rosberg on my desktop and in my sig, a 1:20 Williams Honda FW11 model with Piquet's livery rather than Mansell's, Autocourse annuals from 1982 and a copy of 'The Chain' by Fleetwood Mac.

I just like F1 a lot. Don't think I need to explain how much, but a lot more than the average bear!

I have three 1/43 scale model F1 cars on my computer desk, and a 1/18 on its way.

I have a good few hundread pounds worth sitting at home, and a lovely Bentley Le Mans model on my desk, as well as 1/18 Scale Le Mans 1998 and 1997 cars, and a 2001 Viper.

I have got every issue of F1 Racing since March 2002.

I ahd EVERY copy of F1 News before the magazine was closed. I have every copy of autosport since 1999 possibly?

I have a F1 replica steering wheel for my PC.

I felt the need to get a good steering wheel rather than opt for one which looked like a F1 one[/i]

I have three F1 posters on my wall.

I have a massive ayrton senna picture framed, with glass casing of course haging on my wall and easily over 20 posters

I have four books about F1.

What was your point? I dont really have that much tbh either :|




Racing Is Life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting
Jesus may be able to heal the sick and bring the dead back to life, but he can't do shît for low fps

My point?!?! I just thought this would give people a chance to boast about what they've got!

In That case...

I have a limited Edition Martin Brundel Jordan test car, only 300 were ever made. I have a limited edition Geoff Gordan 1999 Chevy Mote Carlo NASCAR. Only 5000 ere made. I have a limtied eidtion Michael Schumacher Benetton with Jean Alesi perched on the airbox getting a ride back to the pits after the 1995 Canadian GP. Duno how many were made. I have a limtied edition DC 1995 Williams. Why si this one special? Becuase it has DCs helemt before it was removed from the models because of sponsorship rows. Duno how many were made

This is all my special cars, along with the ones that really mena alot to me such as 1997 Porsche 911 GT1 Le Mans entery, AMG Mercedes CLK GTR 98 FIA GT car, 2001 Dodge Viper GT2, Bentley EXP Speed 8, Le Mans 2001 (my newest car to the collection)

I cant remember the rest of the cars. Havent seen them in months, because havent been home in months . Maybe i should bring them here so i can stare at them

Oh, and another good one is the Alfa Romeo 155 DTM car

And a AMG MErcedes CLK DTM kit car

And of course how much you own depends on how much you have to spend. the reason i got a good few limited eidtion things was from abroad.

I wud have more but i spent my cash on going to Le Mans 2003, and i will be going back in 2004, almost defiantly

i dont think having more stuff makes someone the best f1 fan. and btw- nigel mansell won the hungarian gp in 1989 with a classic move on senna, that was awesome.



TAX DODGER

i once spilt some petrol on my clothes
