Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Michael Schumacher

(continued)

It would appear that Mr. Schumacher is a great supporter of former President 

Clinton's Foundation.

Picture this - 1983 or so at Willow Springs Raceway - high desert in
Kalifornia (AND where the teams would practice the weeks before the Long
Beach GP when F1 raced the streets of LB) - an unmarked car painted white
circles the track at a quick pace.

A rather heavy Alan Jones is in the car - taking lap after lap on the track.
Then wham - go for it.  Yikes - spin out here, spin out there - spin out
every where.

More work on the car - more laps - more spins.  Then in a fine Australian
accent "Crikey lads, I don't have it - - - )

Another picture - Sir Sterling Moss tried it again after his dynamic stop at
Goodwood - - - got out of the car and said - - - I feel like a man who had
all the answers written in a book - - and now I have lost that book.

MS?  We shall see.  Heck - he may be only 1 second off pace - - - good for
row 7.

Crikey lads - this sport is ONE tough nut, eh?

heh heh

I think it will be fun to see MS race again.   Gotta root for the boys in
red, but it will be fun to watch Michael do his thing at McFunken.......

Actually I cant hate Mercedes any longer since they dumped Ron Dennis who is
my anti-hero. I will have mixed feelings over Schumacher
however and think he would have been preferable to Alonzo under any
circumstances.....

All,

I guess I can safely say this since it is a Ferrari list. I would rather
have my shitbox Ferrari GT4 than any MB ever made. I think Ferrari should
have resigned MS instead of Alonso also maybe we will get to see him whine
when
Felippe kicks his ass or holds him up in the pits!!!  HA

Oh man.

With some of you guys on here, it's like every civilian brand needs to
maintain a 250 GTO like aura around their cars....ugh.

Sure, MB of new isn't quite like MB of old but who seriously wants a 190E
over a new E, S, CL, CLK, SL or CLS? LOL.

A vintage Gullwing is a different story of course, and a genuine AMG
Hammer
or Porsche built E500 is worthy of consideration, but not all garden
variety Benzes made between 1980-1999. You seriously want bulletproof,
buy a
new Japanese car...done, end of story.

I'll play along and be a good sport and say the '90s S Class was the last
of
the uber Mercedes Benz elite class. When comparing each respective
generation of S, this was easily the best, from the look, the armored car
like construction, those dual pane windows, and the first big HP V12 in
the
600...the quintessential Benz.

Still wouldn't get it over the newer S's. You're buying an
expensive prestige sedan for the cachet/style/keeping up with the
joneses/etc first, everything else comes second. Anyone who says
otherwise
is clearly lying to himself or others!

The '90s S or Miami Vice era S's no longer fit the bill....so no point in
owning these maintenance nightmares unless it's for the novelty factor
and
short term. For that LS, you did it right with those BMWs!

It's time to expose the (forty) 800 pound gorilla for what it is! I don't
hate those older Benzes...still respect them....but to act like they were
the only good cars from the factory is silly.
