Got the pleasure of meeting him at a local event.

Very fun gentlemen. Part Texan, Part PT Barnum, slightly better driving resumé than mine.

Where was that, Doug????

Yeah, that Adam Corolla has been knocking it out of the park with the documentaries.

He had an incredible success rate regardless of the car he was driving.

He was quite a talent.

I try and never pass up a chance to learn how (successful) people think.

I have watched it twice now.
I have also seen senna many many times. I wanted to start a thread to keep track of how many times everyone has seen senna.

yes, uppity was a great DOC.
he was quite the driver. its a shame he was treated the way he was. you can hear the anger in him and it is expected.

thought it was funny that he was faster than hobbs even with a "slower" car.

I wish he had had a real seat in F1 back then. would love to see what he could have done.
