            He was adamant that the race was going to happen. Then, when caught with his dick between his legs, he took to a secondary approach of criticizing every goddamn thing he can think of. Not that he's necessarily wrong, but I don't give a fuck, and he seems to think he's the greatest mind to ever grace the presence of motorsports. You would think someone would have consulted him.

              That'll be a second US race, if it happens. It won't take the USGP away from Austin.

                • seriously had the best time ever. great race, great weekened.

                  financially i completely agree with grape, i think they spent so much, especially on transportation to make this thing run smooth.

                  i cant even begin to tell you how amazing my general admission seats were so i'll post pictures tomorrow or something, gonna go downtown now.

                    • Grape, if your internet persona even remotely imitates your real life persona I am VERY glad I do not know you personally. Life is way to short to be so pessimistic. Just my 2ยข. Perhaps we should start calling you Sour Grape instead.

                        my internet persona is quite bouncy and light hearted compared to my real personality... more proof that people don't want to hear the truth, people that don't want to hear the truth have created the attitude that makes it necessary for the fat kid to get the same ribbon on field day as the kid who actually won something.

                          Wow..... Self appointed asshole then? OR, just self doubting dick that likes to ensure he's right? I have NO problem with the truth. Matter of fact, I rather enjoy it. Like I enjoy math, or logic. However, I like to have a good time too and do not look to intentionally bring others down, just to feel better about myself. Just like that passive aggressive remark bolded above. You're implying I'm one of those people. I know I'm not and I'm good w/ that. Then again, I don't pretend to know it all nor do I feel the need to prove it, either way. All this time I was REALLY hoping you'd bring some real tech but all I've ever seen you do is bitch and belly ache about this, or that, or some other thing....

                          Yet I digress. Back on topic, my opinion remains the same. I'm glad the US GP was a successful event. YMMV, I enjoyed it immensely and am DAMN glad, and proud, to see F1 back in the US.
