Happiest moments watching racing

[Everso Biggyballies]

Bottom post of the previous page:

The most amazing thing I've ever seen in motorsport was Hans Nielsen going from 4th to 1st pos. on last lap of a speedway heat at a point where he needed the win to become champion, I can't quite remember what the circumstances were, anymore. It was over 25 years ago. It was unbelievable, shouldn't be physically possible. I was literally speechless and euphoric at the same time. To this day, I still believe he is the greatest motorsportsman from Denmark, with noone even a close second.

Thanks for sharing that one.... [tongue in cheek mode] actually I think it is the first memory of yours that I have read of here that has not mentioned drunkenness, alcohol, deviant sex, knuckle butties, some act of thuggery ( ), or the police.
Oh I nearly forgot, red hair as well. [/tongue in cheek mode]

Edit: Forgot to mention that this one does still share some elements of your previously mentioned, other 'off topic' memories....., 'I can't quite remember......', not to mention 'literally speechless' and 'euphoric'.

I have looked for any footage, but can't find that special moment.

It could have been anything from a league match to a World Championship, I don't remember the circumstances. It was on TV.

Hakkinen winning the 2001 US Grand Prix.

That was great. I also remember being so happy for Mika then.

I imagine PTRacer must have been shaking with excitement yesterday, seeing his hero win.

I imagine PTRacer must have been shaking with excitement yesterday, seeing his hero win.

I was shaking so hard, my finger slipped and changed the channel.

I always turn it off before I have to hear Vettel suck dick in the cockpit. "YESSS GUYS, YESSS!!! Thank you guys, you did a brilliant job!!!! WOOO!"

[Antonov]

you make me imagine things I'd rather not :-s

[PTRACER]

Makes you wonder why he bleached his hair...Has he called any of his cars Manly Mandy, or Manky Mary before?

I saw the highlighted quote and every time I read it I actually kept hearing it in Schumi's voice. He and Vettel are almost interchangable in some aspects.

Hans Nielsen the proffessor of speedway.

He used to ride for my local team the Oxford Cheetahs till 1992.

I used to live across the road from speedway back in the days.

Rob Austin winning his first BTCC race is one of my recent pleasures.

TK winning the 2013 Indy 500 was pretty great.

TK winning the 2013 Indy 500 was pretty great.

Indeed. Actually, every Indycar race on an oval where no one is badly hurt.
