Grand Prix Rejects

I thought there may be some reject action here as the video focuses on retirements in a somewhat rejectful race, but in the end all we get is a couple of shots of the Zakspeed.

Some good classic F1 on that channel though, so worth a look through their other vids.

Not F1, not even NASCAR, but check this out anyway: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JhVU-Sb ... re=related

To Sakon Yamamoto's investors,

Please remove all of your investment from Sakon and invest in Hayanari Shimoda.

Thank you,
Watka

I'm not sure if this belongs here but this demonstrates just how much of a legend he is.

An absolute inspiration. Such a shame his time at Williams never hit the heights.

Wouldn't that mean adopting Shimoda?

I don't know whether to laugh or cringe.

Correction: Dying cat.

Here's something that someone provided a link to via FaceBook.

I remember seeing this before, still funny though! Petrov's is the worst. Buemi gets A for effort.

I've seen that movie. It stopped making sense after 15 minutes.

I thought it made sense Wizzie... where did it go wrong?

Well it could have been down to the fact I had little sleep for the past 5 nights before watching it and I haven't seen the prequel to the movie.

Oh Dear

I suffered, and now its your turn.

So wrong....so wrong. For some reason, it reminds me of this commercial.

What baffles me is that Steve McQueen somehow lost his middle finger.

I know. It would have been a lot better if he was giving Hamilton the middle finger instead. (It would have meant the same thing.)

Here's a video of the Caesars Palace GP in 81. It gives us a good close up view of how bland the track was.

I went searching around for more info on HWNSNBM and I actually managed to find an onboard lap of him on the edge (I assume) around Monza.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YXTHNSgsXs Here he is, and it's a fine lap in the Jordan.
I figured "Hey, I should post this," but why should I have all the fun? Let's make this a thread for the purpose of collecting links of Rejects, near-Rejects, or Rejectful performances captured and immortalized by video. After all, it's only one thing to pass these performances on through textual history, but with YouTube we can relive these magic moments one link at a time.

Wasn't this the purpose of the reject youtube thread?

Damn it.

I posted this in my own thread because I'm sort of an idiot like that and forgot we had this thread.

Quite possibly the fastest he ever went in that car.

So I guess this implies that Jenson and Lewis are hippies, and sleep with each other for two nights in a row.

The most reliable it's ever been. Then again, this IS a simulation...

And fastest as well, about 1.39 laptime. Looking for example at 1993 Larrousse which does the lap in 1.31.

In real-life it was at best 14 seconds off the worst car that qualified for the race.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVCN5ulbJww Speaking of which, here's another rfactor video, this time of the Andrea Moda making its rounds.

I like to imagine this kind of speed is possible, if only because maybe it's McCarthy's car.

It's Moreno's, actually.

Well, if we are at video games, I can add a video of my own creation:

Coloni in action!

how about this one? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUaFbhZ4NkM

Maybe it's the same guy who said "Ladies and gentlemen! STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRT you're engines!"

You gotta love the Japanese. They might not be the best at some things, but they try their damned hardest to give it a good shot, including their commentary! You can't fault them for effort and enthusiasm!
