Yeah it's him. Just heard him say it. Last hour or so has been Röyksopp in case you wondered. Edit: Must admit that I've had less entertaining nights out than this. Getting inspired and learning a few small tricks here and there is rather f

I'm not so sure about that. There is a lot of stuff on track outside the racing line. Especially at the end of the race. The amount of rubber that ends up on the track is just ridiculous. http://www.autocarindia.com/files/images/19_0.jpg
