Default Schumacher not coming back to F1

Looks like his neck injury is stopping Michael from coming back to F1. Oh well...

I hope they give Marc Gene a chance. He is already on the Ferrari team as a test driver...and he just won the 24 hours of Le Mans.

Yeah, I'll bet there will be a lot of refund requests for those Valencia tickets!!! It would have been great to see him drive again!

Not at 3450 lbs!!!!
I'll probably go to the ARRC in November, but I'm boycotting the Runoffs this year because I just don't think the LS3 is anywhere near competitive at 3450. We'll see.

I'll run a couple of races next year with the current engine just to keep my license, but if the CRB doesn't come to their senses and drop the weight to something reasonable, I'll probably abandon T1 and run something else (NASA, TCC...whatever). I hate to do that, but I'm just tired of burning the car to the ground every time I go out.

Unless somebody proves otherwise, or the CRB drops the weight, I won't be back at the runoffs in an LS3. ...just not worth it.
