RE: Smiling as I go to bed!
Yeah he is a pretty awesome driver. I remember watching the races where
after he would win he would stick his whole upper body out the window
(helmet off) while doing 90 mph and wave to the crowd, and believe Audi
used some of those scenes in their TV ads.
I also remember drivers that would try and follow his through a corner
(as most inexperienced drivers do to try and learn) and he would take a
really unconventional line that naturally the quattro would stick too,
but the car behind would end up doing a 360.
Ahh those were the days . . .
