Obviously Ham won't be winning in a Williams. Maybe in a 2015 or 2016 Williams, he'd win a race. Maybe even snatch a pole position or two.

That's why we say Ham won in 2017 & 2018 against Ferrari having the better car. And why he won the season opener against Redbull having the best car.

But clearly, you're here to troll and I like MKsixer, has wasted wasted time responding to you.

Ham won because Vettel was driving for Ferrari. As MKsixer said, if Alonso was driving for Ferrari, Alonso would very likely would have ended MB's domination. You also mentioned that Ham would DOMINATE Max. I said to you that can only be proven if they were on the same team and if so, I would be betting you he won't. Just saying it in case it happens next year.

Max just isn’t on Hamilton’s level. He’s had plenty of opportunities to rise to the occasion, and he hasn’t.

Your comment absolutely has no correlation to my statement.

You made a comment that Hamilton has not "dominated" Max because they aren't on the same team. Max isn't even qualified to hold his jock strap.

Your comment in relation to mine totally does not make sense. You are on a totally different wavelength. Let me just say this, my GTR will dominate your BMW. Feel free to dispute LOL.

Unfortunately I'm stuck watching LEC & SAI battle for scraps but do enjoy the HAM / VER battle. Actually several mid-field battles are shaping up nicely. Fun year ahead I think.

Well Yes and No. The M8 would a great daily car, the GTR is great for the weekends. I shudder to think of it as a daily car.

This is like a dream come true. Where in Washington state are you? We can meet at any of the local tracks to see if your GTR beats my M3.

No point going to the local track because I can't go all out w/o a roll bar and not get kicked out.

I'll be at Bremerton for NW Motorsports' event in June.

Why can't you go all out? Bremerton doesn't have a track.

I'll be at the Ridge Friday and Saturday.

None of the HPDE orgs have any requirements for a roll bar. Not sure who told you that.

I presume he's talking about one of those "tracks" where you just drive in a straight line for 1320 feet

Yes you are right. I also know how to hit the apex, decipher the line, and maximize my exit speed out of the corners. I've done the Skip Barber racing school and BMW track days.

Any other comments or presumptions?

I'll do the Ridge one of these days this summer and I'll let you know when. I've got a cash bash event this weekend that was preety profitable for me last year.

Lmao sure. Make sure it's a Turn2 event. I'll let you have as many laps as you want. I'll run one hot lap. If you get within 10 sec I'll be impressed.

Or you can work your way up to advanced group over many events and then we can run together.
