Very cool, but being from Packerland, if it's not dark green with a great big capital "G" on the side, I doubt if annunaki will bestow great reverence on these classy, yet second rate machines.

LOL, and here is the one for Dave (majorloser).

LOL, have you seen his avatar?
I'm fairly sure it would be a hit with him.

And, hey, it can always get that 'custom' paint job.

What I have is even better.

It's called a "Lawn Service".

 

[Gasman]

LOL, yeah I figured a come back like that.

But you must remember, it is for looking at, like a museum piece on your lawn.

 

[Seth=L]

That is a wicked looking mower. It looks as though it would have problems with inclines.

That's decked out in the famous world champion 1978 John Player Special Lotus driven by Andretti.

That is nice! What size motor? Does the blade spin at 19K rpm plus? I could mow my lawn in record time!!

 

[Highlander]

Does the blade spin at 19K rpm plus?

Yes. It's a Ferrari design copied by Maclaren. Or, wait a minute...maybe it was Renault, I forget. It's sooo hard to keep up with all the illegal F1 activity these days.

 

[annunaki]

The Renault issue is completely and wholly different than the McLaren one. As soon as Renault found out a former McLaren engineer had brought designs with him, they contacted McLaren and the FIA as well as suspended the engineer. They also forwarded any and all information back over to McLaren.

Anywho, a blade spinning at 19K rpm would sound awesome as you ripped across your lawn. Is there a rider version coming soon??

 

[race4aliving]

They had the info for almost a year and have admited that at least 15 different engineers viewed it. they only brought to the FIA's attention after McLaren told the FIA they had it.
I think the whole "spygate" affair is stupid but, Renualt should be held to the same standard has McLaren and Toyota oopp's I mean just McLaren.

 

[annunaki]

The designer whom Renault hired from McLaren had the items in his possession on his own computer. Some engineers were shown the plans but agreed nothing was worth pursuing or looking at as it was old news so to speak. They also brought it to "management's knowledge" and McLaren and the FIA were contacted quickly after.

McLaren on the other hand were shown to be using the information they obtained to gain an advantage. It was also known to be in the team's possesion by some of the people "in the know" or higher up at McLaren. Nothing would have ever been said (by McLaren) if it were not for one Fernando Alonso and others. That to me is a substantially different scenario than that of the Renault issue.

Should there be equal punishments, not in my opinion. Renault did what should be expected when you find someone else's intellectual property in your possesion. McLaren on the other hand denied having used it in any way, practically denied having it to begin with, and was them proven to have lied about it. I can see why the FIA came down on them like they did.

This is not a "spygate" thread so let's try to keep it on topic. I would be happy to respond should you start a thread on the topic.

Mclaren told the FIA about it because Renault contacted them and told them it was in their possesion. They also informed McLaren they would be notifying the FIA.

 

[Audioholics]

It looks like it's being driven by a Cylon!

 

[Gasman]

a Cylon!

Wasn't that on Buck Rogers or Battlestar Galactica? Or one of those shows from 15 years ago?

 

[annunaki]

I believe it was Battlestar Galactica, but I am not sure. I don't really watch the show. I have just seen snippets of it from time to time.

Clint is letting his inner geek show.

 

[Highlander]

I believe it was Battlestar Galactica, but I am not sure.

Nope. You're spot on.
