Kimi moving to NASCAR

truth

 

Montoya quotes; pretty accurate.


Montoya and Raikkonen were team mates at McLaren in 2005 and 2006 and the Columbian who quit the Formula 1 midway through 2006 said, “I think maybe if you would get the numbers of how many people internationally are watching these races … in Europe and Asia, I think you would shock yourself. People in Formula One are very selfish. They think there is nothing better out there. But the actual racing, this is exciting.
He added, “It’s exciting to watch, it’s exciting to be here.”

“I think it would be cool if he comes here. He’s a cool guy and I think he would fit right in.”

 

looks like perky jerky stepped up to sponsor kimi. i was hoping Boudreaux's Butt Paste would see this unique op.

"Ultra Premium Jerky"?

The mind boggles.

Or is that a "favor" offered in the back streets of certain Asian neighborhoods?

 

Kimi and Kyle Busch ran identical lap times in the truck test.

Heck, I thought bottled water was a fad.

Interesting "story": http://www.perkyjerky.com/our-story/

Hadn't heard of them before this; their sponsorship is already paying off as I'll give it a try.

Hopefully they introduce the "KimiJerky" with an alcohol twang.

 

As long as he can keep up his trademark drunken shenanigans and crude sense of humor he'll fit right in. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJ17wzNoBLE[/ame]

No question.

Thanks.

 

haha, fantastic! Never seen that drunken boat video.

 

So he ran the same times his first time out as a seasoned NASCAR driver? Good for him.

 

Once we know what "identical" means then we'll know how fast Kimi really is. Identical could mean within the same second. Show me actual lap times!
This is just PR mumbo jumbo so that everyone assumes that he's still fast.

I do hope the Ice Man makes a great return.

 

Allways faster than Alonso..

 

lolz

 

Kimi's debut is next week! Practice is wednesday I think; the race is next Friday. He should be in North Carolina by now....

 

I can't wait for his first interview.

 

"I was taking a ****!......"

 

He will never be confused with John Force...

 

Will he thank his sponsors?

 

Lol I just imagined him saying "I'd like to thank Perky Jerky" with his accent and it made me laugh

 

Nascar has a diversity in the workplace program?

 

I'm going to the truck race at the Kansas Speedway in June and have pit passes, hopefully I can meet him or get an autograph.

 

After his WDC, I never would have guessed in a million years he would race in an event called the "North Carolina Education Lottery 200." LOL.

I do like his interviews, though, sounds pretty cool...

Tomorrow is a full day for Kimi. Two morning practices; qualifying in the afternoon, then the race at night....
Looking forward to it.
