Pretty cool

Neat! Amazing how close the crankshaft is to the ground.

I don't know how the hell they get in those cars.

More to the point, I don't know how the hell Tony Stewart got into Hamilton's.

That cutaway video was really cool. I knew that a F1 car was cramped but wow they use every available inch. As for the driver swaps Gordon>Smoke hands down.

I agree, but Gordon and Montoya weren't that different in size. With Stewart and Hamilton it was more like, I don't know, Shrek and Pinocchio...

Yea for sure. I think it was awesome Gordon got right out on track and pushed it to the limit. Smoke pussy-footed around. And yes it was a little damp but he didn't have to drive like my grandmother. Would like to see Hamilton run a race maybe a road course. But that probably won't ever happen.

Dirty, any idea how they cut the car in half?

No idea. That would take one hell of a band saw.

what a find

Wow! What a great find!

I caught a snippet on TV over the weekend where one of the shows that follows a guy around as he finds cars and restores them for auction said he found one of the Ferraris that Phil Hill drove in a farmer's field in Texas. I'm trying to find more info, but not having much luck.

That is awesome!!!
