Who cares about the Lowndes family.

There are more important things in motorsport to discuss like Big Trev's entry in the upcoming 6 Hour Relay at Winton for example.

Both of those subjects are rather boring when you put them like that. You should say, "will big trev finish the 6 hour" and "is she really a red head?"

Back to the subject at hand... while this particular topic is one that was raised here a few years ago, and rumoured since seemingly forever... the most telling point is the post count and view count on the thread as compared to something motorsport related... Stats of 10 minutes ago...



Almost 8,000 views on this thread, while the Phillip Island round thread is yet to hit 500 views!

Sex sells I suppose.. but while there are people here who dont wish to read about any sordid details of whatever may or may not have happened, arguably they are in a minority.

David, are we now allowed to discuss the personal lives of the moderators? you know because they like motorsport and start rumours and all.

Going by this thread it would seem it would be allowed, but hence your rules protect you from the evils of people judging and talking about you.

Precious and double standard are you not?

DJJ it might be easier to buy him flowers, you sure do want to talk about him a lot.


GTR, i reckon though its not a fair comparision, due to PI happening in the distant future, compared to current, I reckon is you surveyed the posts in the thread you would find that the thread has been hijacked by discusion on if it is news or not

The Coates Hire 300 event thread Here has attracted just 3,786 views... the Sucrogen Townsville 400 event thread Here has attracted 2,664 views...

A pattern emerging?

No, you're not. Ten-Tenths moderators do not put themselves up to be "public figures" unlike racing drivers.

cant argue with that, good research.

i have noticed that race discusion has dropped off in recent times. especially the last 3 events or so.

still reckon in this case the discusion has been more about if we should be discusing it or not, see the last ten posts for preliminary eveidence

Did you know in the latest research from england, I marriages that end inb divorce on 26% are because of an affair, the most common reason was because we have fallen out of love. just some thoughts on marriage to ponder

I disagree in this case, the infamous powder room is some what of a persona that is and has caused previous trouble.

Media, lies, rumour and a odd legal warning then threads and posts go missing, more like we will allow it till we get told off till then we are the law.

Yup, and it'll stay that was for as long as I'm the one paying the hosting bills.

And now at this point I suggest you get back on topic or start facing warnings for "Off Topic Posts" or "Thread HiJacking"

Probably what happened is he is a racing driver and sometimes we have to be honest with ourselves where the deadweight is in our lives. Nagging wives and kids slow you down, so best to jettison them and especially when there is a lot of other younger, hotter, available women out there for short term liaisons, go for it. Just don't get married again.
