For those that have the speed network are you going to watch it? I'm already glued so I probably won't be posting till it's over.

I used to have it on basic cable to, but this race is fucking awesome. Now we have one of those boxes from atandt or something like that. But I love this network, call your local provider and see if you can get it.

I'm shooting for indy cars. I think you have to live in Europe in order them to really recognize you, but I would love to drive a F1 car, especially Michael Schumachers new Ferrari. :boink: :drool: I'll be saving my money to go to racing school. I'm looking forward to it. F1, Indy, and Rally are my favorite spectator sports. If they had a station dedicated to those three sports I'd be glued to the tv all day.

I seriously doubt me being over 6 feet and about 250 pounds will ever drive F1, my parent wouldn't ever let me anyways. It was just a bit of a fantasy.

Damn I don't think you could fit into one of those bad boys, no offense, however I'm only 5'7 190 ibs. I think I could get into one. My mom doesn't really want me to but she said whatever makes me happy. And Michael Schumacher one after 69 laps and a fire in the pit which was easily controlled. That new 2003 Ferrari that they have is bad ass.
