Well I've loved cars and car related stuff my whole life. It's why I started the website, www.autopartsclearance.com. I just wanted to have a great place for everybody to buy and sell autoparts without it costing a king's ransom and have some fun chatting back and forth.
But what I really love is racing and F1 is my favorite. This weekend kicked off the season with the Australian GP. What a hoot!! Ross Brawn, the famous engineer for the former champ Michael Schumacher at Ferrari, has done what no one else has done. Taken over a F1 team, Honda, using their money to fund the purchase and created a car that simply is the best. Within a couple of weeks of firming up the deal(March 6th), Ross loaded up a couple of cars, headed for Melbourne and ran away with a 1-2 qualifier and a 1-2 finish. The last team to score a one-two on their debut was Mercedes-Benz in the 1954 French Grand Prix at Rheims. I'm an old Ferrari fan, and I loved the days when Ross and Michael just kicked butt on everyone. So I guess now, I'm a Brawn fan. And he's doing it with a couple of old dogs, Jensen Button and Rubin Barricello. I think Rubins is nearing 36 or 37-ancient in the world of F1. These guys didn't even know whether they had jobs until about three weeks ago. So here's to the start of a new season. Lots of action, new rules, great passing and the Brawn Supremacy!!
