BS: What kind of racist are you?

From: Jack the Sailor

I like Formula 1 and Cart series. I guess the makes me an "Open Wheel" racist.

Seriously folks, you can pretty much tell it's trolling from the topic... and when the post is from a GUEST___ alarm bells should ring in our heads.

Cheers,

Rob

For myself - I'm kind of a Taylor racist. I've only found a few of them that I've liked. Call me a Martin snob. Or Santa Cruz or Collings snob....

I used to love "Dynamite Don" Nicholson and his Nitromethane "Funny Car" a lot, Junior Johnson was always a big hero of mine--also have a nasty fondness for the demolition derby--

I admit it too Rob.....I am a racist!

Although my background is as a Sprinter/Midget racist, anymore I just have to hand it to NASCAR when it comes to competition.

I follow all racist things and love all things racist, but the older I get, the more I think F1 completely sucks. I hated the IRL too at first, but now they have completely blown CART away......much more entertaining.

But a good night at Terra Haute has always been hard to beat.

Well, being an old Kentucky boy, I'll take a Figure 8 everytime! "And here comes Wilbur Hoskins in his Thompson Corners Sinclair Fairlane. He's not slowin' down folks! and...OUCH! Tough break for Wilbur! He just got that front end replaced, too, after clobbering Billy Crowell's Mercury last week!"

Remember..."X marks the spot for Figure 8 excitement!"

Are you kidding? When you grow up known as 'the short one' you have to be quick, or you're as good as dead.

I'm a 'last one in the pool is a floating turd' racist, a 'who can eat their ice cream the fastest?' racist (oy, the headaches), and a 'who can get to the car first whil sprinting barefoot across hot asphalt in an Indiana summer' racist. Go like hell and don't look sideways.

p.s. And, for those of you who like to know the rest of the story, I can't claim that line as an original. "Camptown Racist: or, Terror on the Back of the Bus" was the title of a pointed, sarcastic, and very funny comedy show about matters of race in American society at the Dudley Riggs Brave New Workshop in Minneapolis many years ago.

I'm not a racist. I've got a bum leg and it's all I can do to walk anymore, never mind run.
But I used to be a sailboat racist.

I am a horse racist. I love the sport and have seen and learned more about humans at the track than I will ever know about horses. And John in Hull, I will be seeking your betting system through the P.M.'s as soon as I can. I need all the help I can get.

Did the originating post get removed?

Personally, I'm a Beatles supremacist.

Although, I did go see Bill Wyman on his book tour when he landed in Nashville last week. I didn't buy the $40 book to stand in line an meet him, but he did some Q&A for awhile, and was very entertaining. It was funny to see someone in person who is seemingly larger than life, and he turns out to be such a regular bloke. The sort of fellow you could have a coupla pints with down at the pub.

Anyway, I still think the Beatles are superior to the Stones.


Hi, Kim - the first post in this thread has no prefix - that's a good sign it's the originating post. I think Jack must have started the thread.

I like racing radio control sailboats (they're generally about 1 meter in length). It's quite challenging, and they are beatiful and quiet, like real sailboats, and handle according to the same principles.

One thing that would increase the realism would be to crew them with hamsters, so the little beasts could hike out on the windward side when the boat's really moving, but one problem...hamsters are nocturnal and they don't like direct sunlight or water! Too bad.

Thank you LH for the first real laugh of the day. The Great Cedar Chip Mutiny. "We only sail at night!" Worse to worse though, you could build a miniature paddlewheeler and let them run all night long...
