My brother just returned from a vacation in the UK and sent me this photo, taken at the old Team Lotus shops in Hethel. It's an amazing place, with all of the old shop equipment still in place, along with a nice collection including a 49, 72, etc., etc.

Let's see, Sony released their first MiniDV camcorder in late '94, so The Amoeba would probably be referring to Herbert, Zanardi, or Salo...

Probably Johnny Herbert. He had a reputation for practical jokes.

I dunno, to me it reads less like a prank by a driver and more like a not-so-veiled complaint about a driver. The Amoeba :rofl:

Reminds me of the way they talk about the Stig on Top Gear.

"Did you put the <redacted> tape in the <redacted> video camera <redacted>?"
(note that the <redacted> at the end is optional)
