[What's Burning?]

Spanky... they let you out for good behavior? Where have you been, you've missed a few.

Keke Rosberg and I'd assume the "slowest" is referring to his winning the '78 BRDC Silverstone race. Not part of the F1 calendar but run under F1 rules with the F1 teams competing.

It pissed down that day and Keke won in the Theodore (he'd just joined them). His average speed was about 155Klms for the race.

Actually, Smokin was close with the answer. I'd forgotten about this thread until you revived it.

Spending way too much time in planes, finally get to spend a few days home. Bl00dy clients, why can't they just pay, but noooooo, they have "expectations"

I think you need to ask questions that have somewhat less potentially correct answers. As I see it, pretty much every answer, including Bud's is right in a way. It's like saying your thinking of a number between 1 and a million and then asking us to guess it

The question is wonderfully cryptic but the answer is glaringly obvious.

Cryptic question obvious answer - I think we've found a candidate to replace smart bomb as the ultimate oxymoron

"slowest" WDC with slowest in quotation marks, hm...
How about this kind of slow: Nigel Mansell as his IQ is in the two digits range?

I think you are being unnecessarily kind.

Ach, this question bores me now. The answer is Keke Rosberg and he has the fewest number of fastest laps of all driver champions (3).

Jeeze, you host a trivia quiz, then moan when someone posts a question that makes you think a little, I don't know what this place is coming too mummble mummble mummble mummble mummble mummble mummble mummble mummble mummble mummble mummble

Which number between one and one million am I thinking of?

[What's Burning?]

Weird things happen... so we're driving back with the family from vacation, a nine hour drive, it gets boring. We decide to play a 20 questions game. You're supposed to think of anything in the world and... well you know the rules.

So the very first time it's my turn to think about my thing.... the first question my daughter asks is, is it a marble? And sure enough that's what I had thought of. Creepy....

So is it 422,173?

The answer is Keke Rosberg and he has the fewest number of fastest laps of all driver champions (3).

...which I said 10 days ago.

Aye, but you gave me 2 choices and said you couldn't be bothered to check which one it was, I suggested you be bothered (that being a massive hint) and you told me life was too short. So I did read your multiple choice answer.

A question with a distinct American flavour.

At the 1961 USGP 5 drivers that started the race would go on to win the Indy 500, but not as drivers, as car owners. Name them.

[scotty]

2 drivers are probably Hill and Clark.

The 5 owners is tough... McLaren, Penske, Chaparral (Jim Hall)... not sure after that. I don't think Brabham ever competed in the 500 as a team.

So we have 3 of the 5 owners - McLaren, Penske & Hall. And you're also correct about Brabham.
