Hello Again

So I haven't posted on here in a very long time as I was working 35-40 hours a week through the summer. But now I'm back at school and doing anything (and everything) I can to put off reading/studying/working/making my parents feel that paying all this money is worth it, so here I am again to spread more open-wheel cheer. I was trying to decide if I was really going to get back into doing this or not, but I found two videos this morning that absolutely sold me on returning to posting on this site.

They are from BBC's Top Gear which from what I have seen, is a fantastic "motoring" show. These clips are part of a tribute to Ayrton Senna, who over the past few years has become my all-time favorite racing driver of any sort. I hope that these videos go to show why so many people had so much respect for the man even before he became the last fatality in F1 (as of Sept. 2010). The second video has a portion that shows one of my favorite F1 drivers at the moment, Lewis Hamilton, racing in the 1988 McLaren MP4/4, which comes from my favorite era of Formula 1 racing machines.
