What do Wouter and Rob look like?

[<AAA-MOD>]

we've seen some kiddie shots of wouter, submitted by henk, but we've never posted official current pics of us on the site. i guess it's only been for privacy issues in the past. Since we covered so many events this year, and Ultimatecarpage.com is only getting bigger by the day, we've decided it might be a good time to reveal ourselves to all of you who haven't met us personally. we had some professional shots taken of the executive last January when we met for our first board meeting (AKA Detroit Autoshow and Cavallino Classic).

The only one I have is a bit out of focus though.

[nopassn]

on the left is Dubbya and on the right is the Canuck...

[man 430gt]

Hmm abit? And nopassn please tell me thats not you in your avi?!:D

[UCR]

Very funny.

[Coventrysucks]

The only one I have is a bit out of focus though.

That's just careless after all the time you spent hiring the studio, setting up the lighting and getting them to pose.

[UCR]

I feel sick nopassn.

[<AAA-MOD>]

ok, seriously now, let's have some fun with this.

here's the same pic, covered with 16 sections. Wouter's gonna ask some car-related trivia questions from his plethora of knowledge and resources, and with each correct answer we will remove a section.

[<AAA-MOD>]

damn, i'm feeling generous. i'll even give away one section, until Wouter gets a question posted.

[UCR]

Oh Joy!!!

[P3RG4R3C]

Interesting.

Hah, then the pic will be revealed by this time tomorrow! :D Granted we get the questions that is... :rolleyes:

[Cotterik]

i am not amused.

[nopassn]

Hmm abit? And nopassn please tell me thats not you in your avi?!:D

lol, nope, it's not me... It's the cover of the new Bloodhound Gang CD, which came out today - it's titled: Heavy Fine (picked it up this morning....)

[The_Canuck]

on the left is Dubbya and on the right is the Canuck...
what?

[Sackalack GT]

I have a very good feeling I already know what the picture is of, just from the clothing and the height of both guys...;)

[Pando]

:) This is my guess... :D

[GT F1]

^^^That's what I was thinking.

[nopassn]

what?

Wouter (I refer to him as Dubbya) is the one on the left, and Rob (who is Canadian) is on the right.

[NuclearCrap]

Lol they aren't posting in this thread yet. :D

[McLareN]

Lol they aren't posting in this thread yet. :D

Rob is.
cough (the person who made this thread) cough

[kentuki]

:) This is my guess... :D
LOL, that's funny :D

[<AAA-MOD>]

be patient and i'm sure wouter will have your first question along soon. bear in mind that he might make them pretty tough sincehe's never been enthused about his pic being public. i've been pestering him lately. figured we should be professional about the biz, and post it somewhere. (professional like a trivia contest eh)

[GT F1]

Hey Rob, were you a mod when you first joined?

[Esperante]

1942! I'm sure that's an answer to a question!
Take away another block. :D

[werty]

The only one I have is a bit out of focus though.
thats ok, a little focus with photoshop will do the trick.......BLAST, they're both wearing sunglasses! :D

[<AAA-MOD>]

Hey Rob, were you a mod when you first joined?

yes, because i was involved in the development. not so much the code (cuz i can't code worth a sh*t) but more of the new design ideas, clothing store, etc.

and of course the consistent show coverage. wouter and i have chatted for a long time, but i started with official show coverage back in 2003 with the Detroit Auto Show.

[<AAA-MOD>]

first Q, from Wouter, via me.

What made the 1955 Mille Miglia victory legendary, other than the record time?

[netburner]

1955 Mille Miglia:

- Stirling Moss was the first winner who wasn't italian since 1931
- Denis Jenkinson used a roadbook in a can, it was many meters long
- they also tried to use a incar-radio, but it wasn't good enough for the rough roads and the loud car
- with 10hrs 7min 48sec it was the fastest time of all times
- average speed: 157,65 kph

[henk4]

another clue

[Pando]

...the first time a co-driver had notes and was more than someone reading a map, which laid the foundation of a modern day WRC-type co-driver?

[Wouter Melissen]

...the first time a co-driver had notes and was more than someone reading a map, which laid the foundation of a modern day WRC-type co-driver?

That's more something I'd call revolutionary, not legendary.

[Pando]

1955 Mille Miglia:

- Stirling Moss was the first winner who wasn't italian since 1931

Was Huschke von Hanstein who won with his bimmer in '40 italian? :confused:

[netburner]

Was Huschke von Hanstein who won with his bimmer in '40 italian? :confused:

Hmm... got the infos out of an official fan site about Stirling... Maybe they were wrong...

[dydzi]

the question is too overall for me, you can say the victory was legendary because of the car - mercedes SLR with red 722, it was the record time of the mille miglia that wasn't broken up to this day, maybe that stirling moss won that race and didn't won F1 championship (not sure if you'd call that legendary anyway) and it was the first victory of the silver arrow team

Let me rephraze then. Why is it remembered so well to this day? And I don't mean the fact that MB have been whoring the car all over the place because of the lack of any other really successful racer.

still this question has many answers :)

maybe because it was the fastest average speed record broken then
or because they made a reconnaissance lap beforehand making notes on a scroll paper that helped them winning the race
or because it was the real last original mille miglia - however there was a race in 1956 but it was banned in 1957 due to two deaths during the race

[Pando]

...and was never broken again.

oh ok thought you were talkin bout me lol

Yes all these things are facts, but how do we know all of that .. how was the legend created?

[dydzi]

it was the first race broadcasted on tv? :D

[Spastik_Roach]

Muhahaha i have seen a pic of Wouter :D And you guys havn't :D

[pdr]

Because Denis Jenkinson wrote about it?


I agree, this is a very poorly phrased question.

[henk4]

[drakkie]

Muhahaha i have seen a pic of Wouter :D And you guys haven't :D

i saw the Monster in real life !!!!! and perhaps will do very soon ...

[pdr]

I knew I should have submitted sooner.
So where's my section of the picture? And none of those background-only sections. I want to see at least one hair! Oh wait, that would be me :eek:

[<AAA-MOD>]

sorry, gotta have the suspense.

[henk4]

one of the most revealing moves ever:D

[Wouter Melissen]

An easy one then. Which journalist won the Le Mans 24 Hours race. This does not include the drivers that became writers after their career like Phil Hill.

[RacingManiac]

Paul Frere(I think that's his name) in 1960

[RacingManiac]

BTW Wouter we next time you ever come near Toronto we gotta meet....:)

[henk4]

Paul Frere(I think that's his name) in 1960

oops we are going to see more........

[<AAA-MOD>]

next Q on its way . . . . . . .

[Wouter Melissen]

What's the smallest engine ever used in F1 ?

[Rockefella]

What's the smallest engine ever used in F1 ?
A 500cc (0.5L) Supercharged engine in the 52/53 season? IIRC, they were... 6 cylinders?

[Wouter Melissen]

A 500cc (0.5L) Supercharged engine in the 52/53 season? IIRC, they were... 6 cylinders?

That was the limit of blown engines, but I'm not familiar with anyone ever using one of those.

[Rockefella]

That was the limit of blown engines, but I'm not familiar with anyone ever using one of those.
Could it be the 1.5L/1500CC N/A V-8's?

EDIT: I think Dydzi's got it.

[dydzi]

1476ccm of ferrari 156

[Wouter Melissen]

A small engine, but 1.5 litres were used in three different eras.

[henk4]

the bloody french tried something small with a blower once

[Mustang]

Gurgh, are you two really that ashamed of what you look like :p

[Rockefella]

Gurgh, are you two really that ashamed of what you look like :p
I'll photoshop some faces over the picture for a small fee! ;)

[<AAA-MOD>]

Gurgh, are you two really that ashamed of what you look like :p

hell no, we just thought this might be an amusing way to reveal ourselves. it's kinda been an ongoing joke that very few have seen what we look like. once this is complete, we'll hopefully post the photo somewhere on the site.

[Vaigra]

I'll photoshop some faces over the picture for a small fee! ;)
a cookie? :p

[dydzi]

A small engine, but 1.5 litres were used in three different eras.

yea, at the beginning of the 50's, 60's and then in the 80's
but is the on that you're talking about a 1,5L or smaller?

[henk4]

it is probably the DB Monomil, but I can't find the capacity

[<AAA-MOD>]

kinda funny how these two (Wouter and Henk) are in the same house, but haven't discussed this.

[henk4]

kinda funny how these two (Wouter and Henk) are in the same house, but haven't discussed this.

we only discuss important things, we are on different levels:D
and I now how you two look.

[dydzi]

right, it had 1L and 1.1L engines in F1
db racecars were always kinda weird

[Pando]

the bloody french tried something small with a blower once
Don't you sound brittish? :D

[henk4]

Don't you sound brittish? :D

of course, because I am wrong, it was compressor, and the engine was 750 cc (just below the limit of the 1954 regulations)

[pdr]

Boy, this thread died a fast death, didn't it? If you're going to start the game, at least make an effort to finish it.

[Wouter Melissen]

Number 4

[<AAA-MOD>]

what mid-80s independent car was designed by a Yugoslavian, with an american powerplant, and german mechanicals?

hint: gullwing doors

[Delmaster]

maybe the DMC DeLorean?

[Guest]

i concur, the DeLorean is the only thing can think of

[6'bore]

Nope, the Delorean was powered by a Renault V6.

[dydzi]

de lorean was irish
then one i'm thinking of has some weird japanese sounding name, smoething like isuzawa

[6'bore]

de lorean was irish
then one i'm thinking of has some weird japanese sounding name, smoething like isuzawa

It was just made in Ireland. It's a mix match of parts from numerous different cars.

[dydzi]

It was just made in Ireland. It's a mix match of parts from numerous different cars.

yea but i mean it wasn't designed by a yugoslawian

[6'bore]

[Egg Nog]

If it is indeed the Kodiak, the car is called the Kodiak F1.

EDIT: I guess that answer was right ;) - I was a little late in posting that :)

[<AAA-MOD>]

Who was the only person to have his name in two separate car companies?
name the man, and the two companies.

[Rockefella]

Who was the only person to have his name in two separate car companies?
name the man, and the two companies.
I'm going to have to go with... Carroll Shelby, and in.. Ford and Dodge?

[<AAA-MOD>]

I'm going to have to go with... Carroll Shelby, and in.. Ford and Dodge?
no, this person has his name actually in the two company names. not on car model names, as you're referring to Shelby.

and it's not just a coincidental occurance. he ran each of these two companies.

[Rockefella]

no, this person has his name actually in the two company names. not on car model names, as you're referring to Shelby.
Ahh, ok. Hmm, prob. an Italian guy, like Etorre Bugatti, or a German like Ferdinand Porsche. I'll need help on this one, I don't have a clue.

[netburner]

August Horch, who founded the Horch factory in 1899, then went out of his own company and founded Audi (latin for Horch).

[<AAA-MOD>]

August Horch, who founded the Horch factory in 1899, then went out of his own company and founded Audi (latin for Horch).

very good guess, and your statement is correct, however not the answer to this question.

the man i'm referring to didn't have any language translations between company names.

ummmmmmmmmmm . . . . . . . . . . don't be silly!

[netburner]

So just for me to understand it: the man we are searching founded a car company under his name and then founded another car company again under his name?

[dydzi]

ummmmmmmmmmm . . . . . . . . . . don't be silly!

that was supposed to be a joke, however you've got to agree that is a correct answer anyway

also benz and mercedes benz, romeo and alfa romeo...

i'm also not sure if vincenzo fraschini didn't have a car brand before he joined with cesare isotta

[<AAA-MOD>]

So just for me to understand it: the man we are searching founded a car company under his name and then founded another car company again under his name?

the first company had his surname exactly, the next had a variation, but not a different language.

the two companies weren't progressions from an earlier one. the two companies were completely different, at separate timelines.

[dydzi]

panhard and panhard et levassor?

[<AAA-MOD>]

panhard and panhard et levassor?

nope, sorry

Daimler? (maybe a stupid guess since I made no investigation to confirm)

[pdr]

Olds and REO?

[<AAA-MOD>]

Ransom Eli Olds started "Olds", then left in 1904 and started REO (his initials)

Harry Houdini drove a car once in his entire life. What was the specific reason?

[henk4]

because he found an escape route?

[<AAA-MOD>]

The inventor of the Gatso cameras. Maurice Gastonides, the bastard!

correct, next question posted above. next pic posted below.

[McReis]

He learned to drive a car just to get to the airport faster, because he had a passion for planes, and he had bought himself one. This was short after Wright brothers made their first flight. He was the first to successfully fly a plane in Australia. After he did it he lost interest on planes and cars.

[Mustang]

Im guessing thats wouter in the brown shirt ?

[Matt]

Im guessing thats wouter in the brown shirt ?

I think you're wrong. Wouter is way taller. He's a giant.

[<AAA-MOD>]

He was the first to successfully fly a plane in Australia. After he did it he lost interest on planes and cars.

that's acceptable

In 1910, Harry Houdini was the first solo pilot to fly a plane in Australia. He taught himself to drive an automobile just so he could drive out to the airfield- and he never drove again.

[Wouter Melissen]

What distinguished the Lotus 40 from the Lotus 30?

[McReis]

What distinguished the Lotus 40 from the Lotus 30?


The exhausts came out on a higher point of the rear end on the 40. Is that it?

[McReis]

It had stronger chassis and suspension too

[dydzi]

possibly it had wider tires and four-valve engine

[Matra et Alpine]

Type 40 was the Independant Rear Suspension from Lotus mirroring what many enthusiastic racers had done to their 30s :D

[Wouter Melissen]

You are all thinking too literal.

[Mustang]

the 40 had a 4 at the front instead of a 3 ?

[Guest]

shape? colour?

[McReis]

You are all thinking too literal.


Or the questions could be better formulated. :D

[dydzi]

the second one had a logo of the sponsor on the car, it was red-gold-white instead of green and yellow

[RacingManiac]

first car to run sponsorship?

[Matra et Alpine]

The Lotus Imperial Tobacco sponsored cars ??

[spi-ti-tout]

The number?

[henk4]

It was basically a Lotus 30 with 10 more mistakes

[Tourbillon]

The year it was launched.

[Tourbillon]

This is a dumb question nevertheless... No offense, Wouter. But there are so many differences between the 30 and 40.

[<AAA-MOD>]

It was basically a Lotus 30 with 10 more mistakes


Correct!


Tourbillon: you're right, it was a very general question. i suspect the quote was passed from one dutchman to the other, or they both heard it from the same source.
