divan Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Was at Cape Town, now finishing it through UNISA unfortunately (studying full time is way better!). And after I finish this I will probably start studying Project Management so I also still have a long way to go. And yes Legend, I knew what I was getting myself into from the start Jip the Japanese seem quite passionate about motorsport in general, they even have a ninja performing kung fu in the woods there That said, this specific rally looked quite scary, seeing the speeds Seba and them were reaching on those narrow roads is breathtaking! I'm so jealous, one of my friends will be in Wales to see the Rally of Great Britain this year! Watching a WRC is still on my list of things to do
divan Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Oh yes, the 6-7 years bit, is that for a doctor I don't know what else takes so long
nellie Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Sheesh, ja!! my dad also commented on how narrow those roads were. Damn...i missed the ninja!! ai Nope bud...try Architecture!! There's NO way i'm going in a medical direction!!
divan Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Damn, the ninja made the show Nice! That is a great course, just didn't know it would be that long No wonder one of my friends has disappeared once she started it So you going to Stellies then?
nellie Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 hmmm...maybe they'll have a repeat of the show...i'll go check. ja!! i love Arch!! can't wait to start, and if it's hard work...bring it on!!
divan Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 I was just kidding about the never-seeing-my-friend bit ne, I'm sure it'll be okay
nellie Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Nah...from what i've heard it's quite possible...it's very hard work and will take lots of time...but hey...then, when i'm finished, i'll be able to do what i love:)
divan Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Jip just remember why youre doing it when it seems tough, thats how I get through. I'm off for the night, I think between the two of us we have ruined this thread with quite an EPIC highjack Anyways, good night!

nathrix Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 Lewis Hamilton needs two more Formula 1 championships to get his hands on the car of his dreams. The 23-year-old McLaren driver, looking relaxed and bright-eyed afterbecoming the youngest World Drivers' champion in Sunday's Brazilian GPthriller, said on Monday that records and riches mattered little to him. However, he made it clear that he would do everything in his power to become a triple champion. McLaren team boss Ron Dennis promised the Briton before he entered F1in 2007 that he would give him a rare McLaren F1 road car, currently ondisplay at the Woking factory, if he won three titles for him'We made a deal, three World championships'. "I want to win this car," Hamilton said. "I will work as hard as I canto get to three. We made a deal, three World championships. It's a carI've always wanted. I got a car book for Christmas when I was about 10,and it had the orange McLaren F1 LM on the front of it. "It was my dream car then. Then I was signed by McLaren, went to thefactory and saw it and ever since I've gazed at it every time I'vewalked past it. "It's the only car I ever really stop at, apart from Ayrton (Senna's)1989 car. I stop and open it up and just smell it - carbon, fresh, new.It's No.1 out of five and the most expensive and beautiful car in thewhole world. It's the one that I want." A 1997 McLaren F1 road car, one of 64 built by the company, was sold at auction by Sotheby's in London last Thursday for ?2.53-million (about R40-million).I'd say it's worth double that auction price' - Ron Dennis. When new, they retailed for the equivalent of about R4-million. "This particular car is the rarest of the F1s, it's an LM," Dennis saidof the Woking example. "I'd say it's worth double that auction price. "I don't have to give it away for at least a couple of years but itwill be a small price to pay for three World championships." nathrix2008-11-04 14:45:55
