I love how the Eagle is always what we as Americans use on everything to be patriotic. It is the tackiest idea ever. I hope they come up with something badass, that is, as long as the sponsors allow it.

Count yourself lucky. Canada has the beaver or the looney.

They all ready do, it's in Spain. Michael's problem was he was too good to live in Europe, and no testing....

Peter brought up good spin on having facilities here, after practice, qual etc when the data goes to the shop to analyze, it's an all nighter for the folks in Europe, over here it's a nice morning start to the day.

Also not having to fight over the same suppliers with all the European teams is a plus...

Well USF1 is hiring, so I can take it that progress is getting made. Summerton is a good choice for a young American driver, i'd stay away from Villenueve. It's been to long since he's been in a F1 car.
