Time to say goodbye to the tired old whore of a town.
Leave the smell of stale beer,
Stale sweat, stale jokes, stale dreams,
Bitter hatred camouflaging fear,
Everyone
Getting
Everyone
Else
Down.
Leave the promise of a wasted tomorrow and tomorrow and the day after,
For the warm endless sky smile,
Where the herd can't touch me with their 37 flavours of hell.
I've waited all year for her and now,
All I can do,
Is wait
And see
Her
Go.

Interests
As the userboxes will tell you, I am a motorsport nut, with an emphasis in my knowlege toward Formula One and sports car racing between 1955 and 1985. I have edited many pages on various topics relating to the 24 Hours of Le Mans. In particular, I am trying to reduce the emphasis on F1 results that seems to have developed in the motorsport listings in Wikipedia, and more accurately reflect the team vs. constructor structure of racing prior to 1980.
Max Jean - The étoile filante of the mid-60s French starter formulae, but didn't really cut it in the big leagues. One F1 start, in the FWRC March 701.
Glen Kidston - Bentley Boy, Le Mans-winner and pioneering aviator. Survived so many accidents they thought him indestructible.

Mainly for that outstanding post at the F1 WikiProject discussion on flags, at which I very nearly applauded my monitor screen, but also for generally being an outstanding contributor to F1 articles. Cheers! Bretonbanquet (talk) 18:19, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar
Pyrope, for your ongoing help at Flavio Briatore, I award you this barnstar. Since I haven't followed F1 since the mid-90s, my knowledge is sketchy and the help you are providing will make the best possible article. I thank you absolutely, keep pushing back!
