What number would YOU choose?

[rjbetty]

This is my first topic started in a while, and maybe not the most original or exhiliarting, BUT here we go!

Just as it says, let's have em, and reasons too if you want. Pick the one, or three as the drivers did that you would want, between 2 and 99.

I go for 17, 23 or 19, in that order. 17 is my birth date, 23 means a lot to me as YEARS ago I had my best ever time at a local kart track on 23rd March, the day after I started my first job! Ah, good times. I promptly "retired" about a month later, and since then, only drove a kart at Southsea funfair in 2012 since (though my suspicions were realised as I could tell I no longer had whatever I had, if ever anything, but it's cool ).

As for 19, a weird story. Grand Prix 2 is one of my favourite ever games, I got it for my 14th birthday in '98. For some reason I always liked Olivier Beretta, he always seemed to be such an underdog at the back in the game, and he was a driver in the game I really rooted for after the Pacifics. In real life, he rather disappointingly didn't outqualify Erik Comas once, but he looked like a much better driver in race trim, coming 8th in Monaco and heartbreakingly following Comas home at Hockenheim, seeing a point right in front of him. His car was no 19 and that's where 19 is a number I've used for years. Also, I was 19 in 2003 which was a pretty good year in my life (such as relative success at college, passing my driving test and getting my first Vauxhall Astra )

20, 12, 8, and 4, in tht order. All #'s I wore in Baseball.

My out and out Number 1 would be (look at the user name) #13

I am not superstitious in either way. Meaning I don't believe its unlucky and visa versa don't have it as my LUCKY number.

Its just my favourite number. I was born on the 13th June, and now live in a house with the number 13. My Grandmother used to live at 113 and another family member was born on a 13th.

I also wear number 13 when I play Football.

If that were taken I would be very grumpy and maybe not race in F1 , but if I had to choose two others.....

well #11 no reason or maybe #99

#43 King Petty Nascar, I had 1/24 model of it when I was 10
#35 Goal Keaper HIFK
#25 Gigi Galli

Those are the numbers I use for everything, reason dosn´t matter to me anymore, but numbers stay!

5, 11, 18 or 28.

5 because first time I qualified for a national swimming final I was in lane 5 (plus Luke Skywalker's x-wing was Red 5 in the Starwars movie or Gold 5 in the book)

11 because when I first started really watching F1 Elio deAngelis was number 11

18 because it was my shirt number when I first sat on the bench in a National League Football match

28 because I was born on the 28th

My favorite - 3.

Number 7

Not for any particular reason that I'm aware of.. It may go back to a model car I had when I was a kid... Stirling Moss's '61 Lotus perhaps?... or maybe I just like the number.

75

75 is a good number.

Or upon failing that, 37.

13. I am a little disappointed that Madonado gets to drive with it.
