This is not racing related, but it's a nice distraction from some of the other topics.

I unexpectedly found a CC driver while playing around with the site I'm going to link.

So see if you can find the Champ Car guy. If nobody can figure out where he is, I'll give a hint later.

Tommy Kendall, PT and Mad Max?

I guess those low Geico rates force them to hire "celebrity" drivers from defunct race series. ;)

BTW did you know that GEICO stands for Government Employee Insurance Company? Inspiring, isn't it?

I was going to ask that names not be named, but oh well.

Even more inspiring is their nasty habit of supplying radar guns to communities, so that their customers can get tickets and they can raise insurance rates...

Since the town I live in has only 3200 residents, but something like 5600 employees of Progressive Insurance Company, GEICO is all but the official enemy.

I love Progressive. They were really good with my accident. I had no issues with them at all. I will probably never switch no matter what the premium.

Who ARE you?

I'm the future of racing

:D


So what exactly is the point of that site? There are some clever aspects to it but if I wasn't searching for CC drivers I'm not sure what I'd be looking for and why.

I also noticed they had no results for any races so far this season on tool cart computer. Does that mean they've DNQ'd so far?

The point is probably marketing. I could be wrong. And you're only looking for the CC guy. Stop overanalyzing. lol

Stop overanalyzing.

But overanalyzing is one of the few things I do well. :)

Of course it marketing, but it could be just be expensive bad marketing. :p

Now I can't get PT or TK to show up. Getting different folks over and over but no CC guys. :gomer:

I had the same problem. Some things you have to click on several times because you get something different.

Wasn't that Christian Fittipaldi in the conference room giving the quiz? I intentionally answered all the questions wrong on one quiz to see what would happen. Fittipaldi suggested I stick with slotcar racing, I race slotcars weekly.

I didn't take the quizz. Guess I'll have to now just to see if it was him.

Yes, that's Crashtian in the quiz room. He also appears under the car. GIECO hit the jockpot on unemployed racing talent. :gomer:

I'll stick with AMICA, pretty elaborate ad campaign though.
