What did D.D. ever win?

British F3 title back in the 70s, which by today's open-wheel standards would make him largely overqualified.

Well, he drove in Formula One and Indy Car, which means he is about 147 times more talented than you or I.

So did Tora Takagi. Doubt you'd make the same claims about him.

And, just wait until Duno gets her chance in F1. Who will be laughing then?

I think you should buy two Indy

One to keep nice, and the other to color in :gomer:

I was at Vegas and noticed there was no trace of his racing school . When I got home did a search and looks like the Speed Academy school @ Vegas is history. I liked some of the things they were doing there so it's a shame it's no more.

DD actually has quite the consultant (con+insult) business going. He does circuit design and corporate motivational stuff.

Is there a chapter about flatspots?
DD didn't explain that enough during the CC broadcasts.
Diagrams with the light pen would help too. :)
