We have recently gained 2 new members from Portugal, both from the Lisbon area, I believe. One is 'luckywill' but I cannot locate the other.

If he sees this, could he please post some details again as I cannot remember on which thread his original post was?

Also, VASCO, are you out there somewhere?

Barry

I know that Jorge Felix is from Portugal, is this the member?

Rob

Brickyard? wasnt he working for Eurosport out there?

This isn't the guy I was thinking of. I don't know how long this chap has been a member but I have only noticed him this last week.

He said he is a free-lance journalist, and is married with a daughter IIANM.

I'm Portuguese and from the Lisbon area but i'm not a free lance journalist, only a curious.

If any of the other portuguese members have nice photos and info of Monsanto and Boavista, and if it's possible to share with me, i would be very thankfull!

thanks

Hi Barry!

I'm João Pinho, i leave in the south side of the river Tagus, Lisbon is in the north side of the river, i'm 25 years old and my fav. driver...i'll choose one i saw racing, Nigel Mansell, the first time i went to a event was some pop-cross racing with the 2CV in the early 80's, actualy i think i went to some with only 1 year old(1977) but i can't remember those , my father raced in that championship for several years and later in auto-cross in division 3.

if you want more details just ask me.

Like you i have a fascination for the old racing times, and old racing circuits, i love your San remo article, and i'm actually using it to build the track for GP3, because i'm not just a lover of that old circuits, but i also want to drive them...in a virtual way of course, i have several Monsanto pictures and from others circuits but normally they don't cover the whole circuit and that's a shame, i'm glad to share all with you, just name the circuit and i send them.

i have:

tripoli (also some video clips), san remo, pau, roosevelt raceway, monza, donnington, avus, parco valentino, milano-parco sempione, albi, monsanto, boavista, monthelry, crystal palace, gávea and the old helsinki circuit.

Also a new member from the Basque Country, Spain. Hello to all the people

Hello,

I was reading the "The Nostalgia Forum Archive" and saw this old thread (From 09-Nov-01):

As i'm Portuguese too, i wonder if those members (and new ones too) are still around.

Hello x_acto,

Yes, I am still around.

Nice to see you around.

Hello x_acto,

You wrote: "Maybe we can meet in one of the very few race events held in our country."

I will probably attend the Montalegre track day in Aug 5, the Murça hillclimb, Sept 6, and the Vila Real Revival, in Oct 16.
Things really happen in the north these days...

Is there anything really interesting at Estoril in the next few weeks?

Hi X-Acto (Paolo)

I dont have GP3 now (I dont know where the CD is)
I used to "race" mainly in GPL, but recently I most left it for Nascar2003 (Mods), Richard Burns Rally and, recently RFactor (demo).

I may want to try the track for GPL (Sergio Loro completed it) or a version for Nascar2003 that I have in my HD

Tell me if you need more help as I live right by the circuit (Av. Antunes Guimarães) I have hundreads of fotos (old and recent) and have already made the tracK for other sims

Um abraço
Neri

Hello, Neri!

Saudações a todos os membros portugueses deste forum...

OK! Neri,

Thank you for the post... I'm not doing the track myself (My trackediting skills sucks... ) but a friend of mine is doing it for me and for the GP3 community, of course.

I hope i don't cause you too much trouble...


@ brickyard, Nice site, if you need any help PM me...

@ lvega & Jorge Felix, nice to see you both around.

Thank you x_acto.

This site was my first atempt to put my records on the net, it's very incomplet.
I have another one in my computer, more updated and almost ready to be posted. I will tell you all when it comes the right time.

Hello brickyard,

I am happy to meet the person behind www.geocities.com/portugalracers - I found your site in the web some months ago: excellent idea for a project!

I am particularly curious about the dates in which the lay-out of Vila do Conde was changed (when the first chicane was added, when the second one was introduced, etc.).

Um grande abraço do amigo brasileiro que adora Portugal,


Muzza

Hello Muzza,

I will find the data you required, and I'll put it here soon.

If you like my site right now, you will love it when I'll update it later this week.

Um abraço para você também!

Luis
