HHHMMMMMM!
Conway was quickest in pre-seaon testing with Lloyd secong. Lewis had a problem but was super-quick there last year. I would say that Conway, Lloyd and Lewis will be in the top 3 but in what order I have no idea. I woul like to see..... 1.) Conway - he is a rookie so would like to see him beat the more experienced drivers 2.) Lloyd 3.) Hamilton |

Hamilton was super-quick at Thruxton last year, but then he was at the second visit to the Brands Hatch Indy circuit last year, but he didn't walk it two weeks ago.
Thruxton's a really tough one to call - it's not the easiest race to predict a result at, and this year you've got a good five drivers who could fill any of the podium places. Rossiter is a ballsy driver, so should be good, but then again being calm and smooth around there can be quick too. Top five - Conway, Hamilton, Lloyd, Rossiter, Sisley. In no particular order. |

Don't forget Spencer, and don't forget Suzie either
Look at the Snetterton times - that's a quick circuit too |

Not too sure if its where the "EXPERTS" hang out, but it is where all the dads try to justify the money they spend on trying to thier kids to the top of the tree.
Come next tuesday you will see more cock and ball storys of why thier son (or girl) did not win. You will hear them in the bar after the race slagging off everything and anything to deflect the plain truth thier kid just didn't cut the mustard. I look forward to picking up all the toys these baby racers throw out of thier prams at thruxton.

Not very helpful, interesting, educational or entertaining, Dr Venom, but perhaps there's a touch of truth in it, albeit clusily couched. I see you are not above a little mild and possibly contrived cynicism, in the same way that the sea is not above the sky - i.e there may be a modicum of truth in some of your words, but they are somewhat sweepingly insulting, and more than a bit bleedin obvious!

clusily = clumsily.
My fingers are assuming the characteristics of the words they type, like a physical expression of onomatopoeia!! Think of the possibilities if extrapolated? |

lol @ 105octane
Sadly not I just don't like crass ignorance of the magnitude exhibited by our friend above, who appears to have found a way to insult just about everyone here, "experts, fathers and drivers, in 3 pithy paragraphs, for no obvious reasons why. Maybe he just doesn't like Mondays ??

Good evening guys,
You have got me all wrong, I have not set out to insult dads, drivers or teams, it is just the way i have heard it over the years. So if i have affended any of you guys (or girl) then i'm Sorry. However if you guys decide to talk about what went wrong, and if this had happened, and he cut him up, then people (joe public) like myself will pick it up and comment on it in these pages. |

formula renault: expect the unexpected just in case.
most of those related to participants in some way seem fairly ready to criticise their spawn/acquaintance so honesty is usually found here anyway. if it isn't feel free to join in the dressing down issued after a muck up. |
