Three Qs:
1. If women can't drive on the street in these extremist lands, how come it's okay to drive on race tracks? 2. Where in the Koran does it say a burka is ok as a helmet? 3. Why does she sit so close to the wheel? "Connected" > wrote in message ... > It's about a woman race driver in Iran. > > http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/4349341.stm |

I know because I've been to both counties. Get your facts right before you start slagging off other cultures. |

religion in the U.S., unlike Iran. On Tue, 15 Mar 2005 13:30:34 GMT, Whoo > wrote: >Steve Smith wrote:> Three Qs: >> >> 1.

And Ive been to Canada and Mexico. That makes me an expert on religion in both Canada and Mexico? I dont think so... Anyone with a modicum of COMMON SENSE can see you are so far off base that you cant even see the base anymore... Mitch -- Remove "nospam." to reply. SuSE 9.2 Pro KDE 3.3.2a |

Sorry, I didn't mean to veer into politics. I just thought it amusing that
an Iranian woman is being presented by the leftist BBC as "the new Schumacher" sitting in a Lincoln LS, too close to the wheel and without a helmet. Sorry if I stepped on anybody's religious toes.

Don't mind them, Steve.
They'd fail to see the humour in anything unless it was labelled "This Is Funny". Bruce. "Steve Smith" > wrote in message ... > Sorry if I stepped on anybody's religious toes. |

But Steve:
Is she really sitting too close to the wheel? I have heard that a racing car driver need a good elbow angle (90) to get the agility and speed needed for a racing car... And, since she is not wearing a helmet, maybe she took it off and put on the burka prior to the photo session? What do I know. A burka may even be very comfortable under a helemt... I would *think* that even moslems have the common sense to protect their head when racing. ;-) And, finally, what's wrong in racing a Lincoln LS? I am positively *sure* racing a racing specced Lincoln on the limit is huge fun, and I would do it without even thinking about the wage.
