Not that this is new news or anything, but for those of you in the know on Sunday it will be the 12 year anniversary of the death of Ayrton Senna at Imola in 1994. Words really dont describe the pictures and i can only imagine the heartache of everybody involved must have gone through.

He was one of the greatest and it was a shame to lose him this way. To see him battle with Schmi and Hill for a couple more years would have been priceless... Anyway for those of you who've never watched the footage here it is:

Hey Man

Hurts to think about it man.... i still get teary when i see the video... its like it was almost yesterday... i was 10 when he died and i felt like i watched him race for a lifetime.... i watched everysingle race he raced in.... i cant stand formula one these days... racing was so much more competitive those days... so many more winners... like piquet, prost, mansell patrese, berger & the man Senna.... no schumi everywhere over everyones faces..... i would have loved it if things did not turn out the way they did on may day..... how good would have it been to watch senna vs schumi vs hill some mad racing... but yeah.... i always light a candle around 6ish coz thats the time the life support was switched off....

that video is terrible. it doesnt show what happend. it just shows senna being worked on in his car with some awful music playing over the top. it was morbid. if you actually want to see what happend instead of just 5 minutes of medical personnel working on a dying man then watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPDCnw-pNCk...enna%20accident

That last link from the beer baron is such a sad clip. I read that he was going to, after that race, speak to the officials about making the sport safer.....really sad that he didnt get a chance.

RIP Senna, RIP Ratzenberger (who also died on the same weekend - but during practice)

    • These arrived today! Sadly I'm going to probably be smart and enjoy the car as is over the summer/sunny period and save the ~2 weeks downtime it'd take to swap the heads over and tune later in the year. Maybe. It's going to be pretty damn tempting seeing these bolt on funs just sitting in storage when they're ready to go. There's a non-zero chance I end up @The Bogan'ing it.

    • I was driving behind an FG (or something similar) Falcon ute with a shopping trolley wing (1/3 the height of that ^ one) on the back end of the hard cover....and it took me 5s to realise I wasn't looking at an NSX. f**king bogans.
