| Some of you might have played this game before on other forums. The idea is to post a series of pictures of historic racing cars, in an ascending order based on their racing numbers. Ideally you would post a picture of a driver/car/team you like, as there is nothing to win here except the joy of sharing some nice pics and eventually anecdotes  . Let me kick this off with one of my favourite drivers, my man Danny On-the-Gas in one of his numerous Interscope cars  . This Fred Lewis pic was taken at the 1982 IMSA Finale in Daytona, where Ongais retired early with the #0 Lola T600 [HU6] but nevertheless won the race with the team car #00 Lola T600 [HU7].  Apologies for the watermark but I could not find a better shot of the car  . Let's see how far up we can go, the first 100 or so pics are usually easy, but of course the higher we go the harder it is to find a pic  !  _________________ Thou shalt not train. |

| Très bonne idée, Frank ! Par contre, je trouve que ce serait vachement sympa que les photos que l'on mette en ligne soient des photos perso. _________________  |

Monaco histo :
Oui, mais ça va être vite plié cette histoire. Je trouve que ta photo est 1000x plus intéressante qu'une simple recherche sur google images ! Allez, la n°4, photo prise par notre ami toulousain Freddy Hell qui passe de temps à autre faire quelques Opens (beaucoup moins souvent depuis qu'il fait mu-muse avec sa 'vette !)  _________________

oui, bien sûr, Ben, mais dans la mesure du possible, je trouve ça plus intéressant, c'est juste mon avis perso. En tout cas, c'est que je ferai. _________________  |

| Photo prise lors des essais qualificatifs du mercredi des 24h du Mans 2008, l'Oreca n°5 décorée par Mondrian Laurent Groppi au volant ici (si je ne me trompe pas), elle terminera à la 8ème place le dimanche suivant.  _________________  |

| Mark Martin was getting a little older just before retiring and SOME of his fans were too (not me smartasses). Hence the sponsorship change.  I used to cheer for Martin and Rusty Wallace. Martin had a bad crash to the infield side of the track. The belts squashed his nuts pretty bad. He had the high voice syndrome but still toughed it out and talked to the announcers. _________________  |

Oui c'est vrai c'est une bonne idée ça  . Mais c'est peut-être un peu hardu pour un premier round  , donc y'a qu'à dire que c'est Formule Libre pour ce coup ci et quand on sera arrivé au bout y'aura qu'à faire un deuxième round plus hardcore  . Ou alors on peut dire qu'une photo perso marque 2 points, et une photo pas perso 1 point, mais alors là par contre il faut un volontaire pour tenir le score par ce que moi j'ai pas du tout le temps _________________ Thou shalt not train. |

It was on my list but Martin's is funnier. I could not believe he accepted that sponsor before retirement. _________________  |
