A drive through penalty for wearing the wrong color shoes during qualifying is a bit harsh.

I wouldn't be posting these kind of links on here. Might give some people some ideas

I pretty sure that at 6'1" 250lb that my F1 prospects ain't looking good.

The Toyota engine assy book is over 2000 pages.  I could not afford the documentation, much less the wheels or tires on an F1 car.

WOW!... and let's just hope that the bureaucrats in the tax department don't start offering their rule and interpretation writing "expertise" either.... you could end up with 500,000 or more pages of rules....

My favorite F1 rule is that the pistons have to have to be round as viewed from the top.  Honda build an F1 engine (and some of their road course bikes) with an oval piston that had 2 rods on it.  Basically they combined 2 pistons into one.  The F1 guys did not like that one bit, so another rule arrived.

Hi Doug

I always wondered what they did for rings on that oval piston ?

Not only did Honda build race bikes with oval pistons, a select few could buy an NR750 for the street.  It was very limited production, collectors items today.
