race of champions

hey just wanted to let you know i saw a commercial for the race of champions, it is in paris and is showing on speed on sunday. anytime you get to see michael shumacher in a rally car is a good deal. he, seb loeb, marcus gronholm, colin mcrae, and a few nascar guys are supposed to be there. should be good. check out the local times at www.speedtv.com

should be interesting but I am a little disapointed that the event was moved to a full tarmac course.

It was ran (the competition, not the TV show) last weekend. I won't spoil it and tell you who won but you'll be surprised when you find out .

yeh, I saw that few days ago.

Man, that was awesome. Epecially the rally car racing part. Everyone was drifting through the corners. It was sick.

Yeh, the conclusion was really sorry, but it was good entertinment.

I think it was better when they ran on the Canary Islands. They were able to get some speed built up and the Rally cars had more to do. I understand why the moved it to Paris, more people will get to see it. While I’m not a NASCAR fan, it is a shame that Jeff Gordon did not get to run the grudge match that they had set up between him and Schumacher. From what I understand, he was really looking forward to it.

Best wishes,
