Hi Racers of the Round Table, I was looking for a suitably Christmas themed motorsports image on the interweb, and found a link to a collection of cringeworthy Bernie Ecceston christmas cards, he really is all politics, all of the time. But there was one message in there that I think captures the feelings of motorsports fans for this festive time of year. Attachment DeletedMerry Christmas all, and thanks for the welcoming me to your community in 2018 |

May the spirit of Christmas enhance our blessings throughout the new year.
May all our names appear by mistake on Santa's list of good boys. Merry Christmas!

His livery would suggest that Santa Claus was a devout Ferrari fan. While constantly dressed in red, he allowed only Coca-Cola at the North Pole, never Red Bull.
The original formulation of Coca-Cola included a small amount of cocaine and made Santa's busy day seem easier, a delusion he later abandoned in therapy.

Carl, as you know I am closely related to Santa and I know for a fact he is a passionate Ferrari fan. Suggesting anything else is blasphemy. The cocaine thing is a sensitive subject, old habits you know... it's a stressful job. |

The cocaine thing is a sensitive subject, old habits you know... it's a stressful job. Rene, The Economist writes that Santa Claus was disappointed by your marketing strategy based on all children wanting scale model racing cars beneath the tree. Some do and some don't. While a vocal minority on the North Pole Board of Directors believe your approach was intended to flood the market and reduce your own costs, your innocent countenance and Ferrari amore serve you well with Santa and guarantee a high place on his list of good boys.  Regarding old habits, Saint Nicholas is forever absolved of sin whereas, when Mick Jagger, decidedly not a saint, asked for sympathy, the devil laughed and recommended nasal reconstructive surgery.
Cheers, Carl

wonderful chaps, we need a sense of humour these days, after all the jokes that are politicians are hardly laughing matter and in a surreal sense, have you ever woken up with bullfrogs on your mind?

Carl, true. Santa and I were not in agreement re. my latest marketing strategy. But he knows I can't help myself and have this blind spot when it comes to miniature racing cars. Our joined Ferrari 'amore' (love this) does help though. I know what's coming for x-mas!  Mr. Jagger flirted with the devil many times which can be fun but with the risk of bumping your nose. But when you have deep pockets, anything can be reconstructed I guess!  |

Rene, With Santa Claus as your protector, you may never have appeared on his list of naughty boys, a scroll of the debased on which my name, admittedly for good reason, has for years been topmost. Because stellar reputations always smother a good time, a reliable advantage of naughtiness is the attention of nasty women... Cheers, Carl |

There's hope for the good and innocent. Paul McCartney was a choir boy who went on to better things when he met the less innocent John Lennon

If there's justice beneath the Christmas tree, I'll find every deluxe Repco engine modification encased in holiday paper and tied in titanium header wrap.
I buttonholed Santa Claus at the mall and specified 200 bhp so my Holden can beat my neighbor's Ford Zephyr.

Carl, thanks for keeping the forum going during these dark and cold days before xmas. Conversations have been slow lately but we shouldn't despair. On the contrary, just look back on the last year and a half and on how many things we talked about and knowledge we shared. And not least important, how many laughs we had. Big thanks to you all! |
