General Idea

Post

This is just a idea do not know if it is gay or something else...

But I was wondering during the races or practices of Formula one races, that this site hold a chatroom where we can discuss interesting things about race. Comment while the race is going on, or comment during commercials.

So good Idea or Bad Idea?
Simon: Nils? You can close in now. Nils?
John McClane: [on the guard's phone] Attention! Attention! Nils is dead! I repeat, Nils is dead, ----head. So's his pal, and those four guys from the East German All-Stars, your boys at the bank? They're gonna be a little late.
Simon: [on the phone] John... in the back of the truck you're driving, there's $13 billon dollars worth in gold bullion. I wonder would a deal be out of the question?
John McClane: [on the phone] Yeah, I got a deal for you. Come out from that rock you're hiding under, and I'll drive this truck up your ass.

In fact, while I sit on front of the boob toob, I have my laptop and wireless connection up, and I watch the F1 timing and scoring.

I'm in for that one. A similar thing is done for cricket on the BBC website. Very useful whilst at work.
I also follow the live timing with the laptop. Find myself correcting the commentators all the time!
Wife thinks I'm a bit of sado. :lol:

That's what I do, too! Except that I didn't have a wireless connection up until the last couple of races.

As far as chat goes, I like the idea.

I'm sure Tomba will read it and if he has time he'll try to figure something out.
