There is a book publisher called Green Mountain Motorbooks, based in Vermont. They have published books on F1.

There, question answered. Google ninja at work. Actually given my sig' I should say that I used the Force.

So, you conveniently overlook the 'Swiss' and also my hints?
Wrong answer.

The main European storage facility for Green Mountain Motorbooks is in Switzerland.

I really have no idea on this one.

okay so heres my 2nd attempt (again trying to not look as silly as possible )

i translated 'greenmountains' into swiss/german and came up with Grunen Bergen and the only connection i could come up with is : its connected to the nurburgring circuit - and that the new german goverment in the Rhineland-Palatinate state has reduced its support for the race

the reason for this connection is also because later on it says 'I have a problem if tax money is needed to ensure that more millions and billions are reaped in profits (by Formula 1)' this was said by GRUNEN party cheif Daniel Kobler

yes i know im silly for coming up with it but thats what i have gotten so far haha

If that is the correct answer then I'm glad *you* did the research on it!

...and DD has too much late evening free time on its hands.

I highly doubt it is the right answer it took me forever to try and find a connection but meh thats what i got (and my god if i ever have to come up with a question god help me you will all get it within 2 seconds)

Very creative, but no. Unfortunately you picked the wrong language. Remember Switzerland is multilingual, so try a romance language this time and it'll become very clear.

Meh ill keep trying

hmm how about 'greenmountains' being translated into latin - is it connected to Monaco/Monte Carlo?!!?

You've got one word right, so you're getting closer

Im guessing the correct word is 'Monaco' and by golly there are some many connections i could make - Monaco Grand Prix/ Its a tax heaven for most of the racing drivers/ it probably has the most racing drivers living there

oh the possibilites are endless

The Swiss car company Monteverdi used an old F1 chassis from a 1989/90's F1 car (Monteverdi-Onyx GP) and it's Ford Cosworth V8 as a foundation for a supercar. The Monteverdi Hai 650. (it deserves honorable mention in the ugliest car thread)

See? It wasn't THAT hard, was it?
Had you said that Monteverdi used to be in F1 in 1990 would have been good 'nuf.

I wanted to honor the response.

I'm going to encrypt my next question in order to make it harder to answer.

Here's what I've been using

A driver for Eurobrun holds the (infamous) record for what? Name the driver and record.

Continuing the Swiss-Italian theme, eh?
Claudio Langes - in 1990 did not even pre-qualify in a record 14 races he entered (= statistically the least successful driver in F1 history ).

Why waste good peripheral content?

Dammit, I forgot to encrypt it. Sort of makes HRT look good in comparison.
