has anyone bought anything yet?

We are considering getting our name on the car...

 

I was considering sticking a marriage proposal on it!

 

I want to so bad. What happens if they don't raise enough money? Do you get your money back?

 

I think they're all pledges, so if they don't get enough nobody pays in the first place.

It's all very well, but even if they do get the money, then what? Are they going to do the same thing every 2 weeks, 20 times next year?

 

I'd pledge if I knew something would come of it. I really want a used brake rotor for some reason. LOL.

They are quite a ways off for 4 days worth of fund raising. 2 million dollars is quite a stretch.

 

Bernie should foot the bill on the quiet...

Funnily enough, I'd like the brake disk too... but we might opt for our name on the car.

The irony being, corp advertising on a F1 car that runs around at the back of the grid isn't likely to be a wise move, however as the Caterhams are so slow, I am sure it wouldn't be that difficult to read the size 6 font on the underside of the front wing from the tv camera's

 

Nah, he tried that one already, slipping a back hander. Ended up costing him a load more to "prove" he didn't.

 

So much for wanting to attract new teams.... that went well didnt it..... the larger teams should run "development" teams?? Development teams have different rules to the mother teams....so 2 classes ccompete?? Good or bad idea??

New teams cant come in and be competitive.... they not even allowed to test properly!!!

Run one fully electric car and one hybrid??? As part of the same team....??? Thatll open aloy of development scope!!

The BBC have a story that girl-racer Alice Powell is hoping to be driving a Caterham in the Abu Dhabi practice, if not the race, obviously helped by a boat load of cash.
