BrawnSupremacy

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!!

Auto Parts Clearance Party

We had a giant party for out launch of our new webpage.

One of the auto industry's favorite events every year is coming up. The Barrett-Jackson show in Palm Beach kicks off April 9-11. Here is a link to the list of cars that are going on the auction block.

There looks to be some good ones in there. It will be interesting to see what these cars will bring in this kind of market.
If you have never been to a BJ auction, it is a real trip and totally worth checking out. There is literally everything at one of these and there is lots of money sloshing around the blocks.
