Had this little beastie for the day yesterday (and a quick blast this morning), as a slightly delayed birthday present. A very fun time was had  >:D

One funny moment - we went to a posh hotel out in the desert for lunch and a coffee and valet parked. When it came to leaving I gave the valet the ticket and waited in the lobby. After about five minutes he came back and said I can't find the key/car. Can you tell me the plate number? I said, no I can't. No idea. It's a black Lamborghini. To which he goes, oh that one, it's right over here  :D He'd been looking in the car park but it had been parked right on the turning circle in the fancy pants spot  :yahoo:

I don't think you have to be a millionaire but if you aren't you
better hope your parents are

As most start at a very young age it would need to be parents although Anthony Hamilton had up to four jobs for him to compete in karting but I'm unsure if that is viable now?

Similar issues with ice hockey in Canada.  it's always been a pricier sport, given the equipment you need and specialized facilities.  Now you need coaching and extra practise if you intend on a professional career.

Each race weekend was kind of a "Where's Waldo" looking for new winglets and such. If something seemed to give advantage versions of it would start popping up on other cars. I'd love to see that come back.

As F1 now has budget caps which restrict what you can do so why is it the rule book cannot be opened up?
Back in the day when there were fewer rules, other than Bernie, you never quite knew what was going to turn up on what car so now with a budget cap how about reduce the rules and give the teams a free hand but staying within the budget.
Would it be more competitive, innovative maybe just more interesting?
It'll never happen I know but I'm interested in your thoughts!

That comes to a little north of $177k for a 6 year old. Looks like my 6 year old great grand Sarah's only hope is for Pawpaw Ed to hit the PowerBall   :'(
