New Forums on Skip Barber website

There's a new section on Skippy's website called FORUMS (see the blue highlight on all pages for the link).

No activity there yet other than a few starters by Todd.

Re: New Forums on Skip Barber website

it's been there since around Memorial Day (recently changed website button to blue to attract attention I guess), a shame they feel the need to reinvent the wheel

True, but now that there is an "official" SB forum, perhaps suggestions for improvements/change, complaints or whatever can be more effectively communicated and thus addressed by SB ?

Re: New Forums on Skip Barber website



This must surely rate as one of the most thoroughly hi-jacked threads to ever grace these pages.

Thanks for the poem, Harsha. I really liked it.

I agree: this is the most hijacked thread I've ever seen. Free form Jazz fest.

At least they got rid of the blue forum button and made it red again.

Little did I know when I started this thread............

We should move this whole thing to the Skippy forum and lobby for race weekend discounts for anyone who can quote the entire thread.

Re: New Forums on Skip Barber website

Mother invited the vicar
And the vicar's wife to tea
They searched the room
And blamed the dog
But it was really me

I farted
I farted
I did a trouser cough
I whistled through my Y-fronts
And filled my pants with froth.


Sorry... it just slipped out.

To paraphrase Dr. Greist, racing is the cure for nearly everything. Although you must admit it is heartwarming to find an appreciation for the beauty of poetry in such an unexpected place.

p.s. what's a vicar? Is that like a K-car?

Re: New Forums on Skip Barber website

OK, so maybe the content of our "Poetry in Motion" thread idea (cars vs bowels ) might not fly over in SkippyForumLand. Though it certainly seemed to go over big over here.

How about this idea: "The Beneficial Health Effects of Racing"

See, if you are moving quickly in a race car, Einstein tells us that time will pass more slowly for you than it will for someone standing in the pits. Therefore you will age less than they will. And the faster and longer you go, the greater the effect. No wonder Vic Elford is so well preserved.

Seat time, seat time, seat time.

Now please excuse me while I go prepare for my morning departure for Elkhart Lake to seek the Relativistic Fountain of Youth. You may talk amongst yourselves.
