Either that or he's more arrogant than 10 Fernando Alonso's.

10 Fernando Alonsos, a dozen Brad Keselowskis, and a Kevin Cogan (F1 Reject).

Wasn't Cogan the clown who eliminated the entire front row at Indy one year?

Yes, in 1982

Yep, and had even more early race shenanigans, with spun out in 1989 slamming into the pit road entrance taking an ABC camera with his destroyed car.

Old Don's on form once again

I especially liked this statement...

'Teflon' Don Pentecost wrote:$165,358,000 is extremely cost effective.

This guy gets more delusional every day.

Don Pentecost wrote:Force 1 USA Formula 1 is seeking funding and the financial commitment to make sure we are racing (and winning) in Formula 1 for a minimum of 3 years, with a projected goal of being a Formula 1 “Super Power” for several decades.

Force 1 USA will have myself, Don Pentecost, as the primary driver. This is not negotiable. There must be a mandatory 3 year contract to ensure financial and personnel stability within the team.

I will be paid one-third (1/3) the salary as the lowest paid F1 driver, and yet I will have the highest probability of winning a Formula 1 world championship within 3 years.

The attainable goal is to win a world championship, and continue winning, within 3-5 years.

I will also be the oldest f1 champion in history.

I've kept the best bullet points in. Is this man for real?????

Posted: **06 Jan 2013, 20:19**

He's becoming very professional now...

Come prepared with proof of funding and we will have a face-to-face meeting, any place, any time. (of course, at your expense)…[email protected]

Doesn't sound threatening at all!

A motorsport team (F1®, Formula1®,Formula one®), is not a business in the traditional sense of the word. and it does not require a traditional business plan.

...and I live on the same street as Santa. The Easter Bunny lives a few blocks down.

I can provide an extremely detailed, comprehensive report (with Gantt chart format) that is available for analysis at an (in person) meeting with any qualified investor.

Now I'm impressed! HE HAS A GANTT CHART... WOW

My report explains every task required for creating and building a Formula 1® team. It lists whether a task is dependent or non-dependent, number of days to complete each task, and the cost (budget) for each task.

I recon he has tonnes of experience in designing cars, he probably allocated a full 3 days for the design of the car!

We should all chip in about $100 and mail it to him as a "preliminary investment" from "Andrea Moda Technologies" to see what happens. Would he announce it on his website?

Reading this I can totally hear Jeremy Clarkson saying: "How hard can it be?" :lol:

I can also see and hear this at the same time:

What the esteemed Mr. Pentecost has failed to mention is that he really means this:

Force 1 USA now has a charity...! :shock:

Found this advert in the website...

Posted: **19 Jan 2013, 20:57**

So is he setting up a charity or is he looking for funds? I can't fathom what he is looking for tbh

Spotted this gem towards the bottom of the page:

The organization will focus on helping people get on their feet, not taking money from u.s. tax payers. It is not going to be a version of the American disaster called "welfare". You aren't entitled to crap in this world. You have to take responsibility for your life and decisions. Socialism doesn't work on a long-term basis. It isn't working in Europe, and it won't work in the United States.

Ah yes, America, where policies/anything that is even slightly left of centre is explained as 'dirty damn commies trying to take over the land of the American Dream. SOCIALISM IS SATANISM!' by those in the southern states. :roll:

I'm pretty central in my beliefs...

There are probably more, but this last one contains even more hilarity...

Also:

Did we miss this? I've just looked through the entire thread but I've still managed to lose track of what's been posted due to the utter torrent of drivel that's come from this man's mouth (and keyboard). Here we have a Don Pentecost competing in a dirt bike race in 1970, when he'd have been 12, so the picture certainly checks out, and there's been some talk of him saying "y'all ain't REAL RACERS if y'all only race in one category", though whether this was used as "evidence" or not I have no idea.

I also see that this thread was started in June 2012, but ol' Don's been peddling his schtick for a while not. This post from July 2011 has pretty much the same wording about "cookie cutter" drivers that's already been mentioned along the way here, and back to May 2010, we see that, yes, Don Pentecost The World's Greatest And Oldest Formula One Champion is the same man as Don Pentecost The World's Greatest Knife Fighter Who Was In Prison In California (And You Really Don't Want To Know What For).

And lo, before there was Facebook, there was MySpace. "Don's Ministry" is there, and the earliest post on the blog (the one I've linked to)... well, can you guess what it's about without even looking at it?

I've got a challenge for you all. Link here to the earliest post you can find on the entire internet detailing Don Pentecost's ambitions to form a motorsports team. The MySpace post I've started there is 16th October 2009. Beat that.

In short: he's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy.

Posted: **22 Jan 2013, 04:15**

My Life (never heard of it) mentions Costa Mesa High School, which the newspaper article from 1970 also mentioned. It really does look like, after all the suspicion that this is a pre-teen with too much time on his hands and too much web editing experience (in creating something that resembles MySpace in 2002), there really is a 50-something (54-57) Don Pentecost whose ravings about forming a CHRISTIAN MOTORSPORT MINISTRY TO DOMINATE THOSE CRAPASSES IN FORMULA ONE FOR DECADES have been going on for three and a bit years at least.

I wonder if there is a mental health unit in Scottsdale that has had him on their books at any stage...

By the way... another of those infamous blogs is called Ecology Twit. I will say no more.

Just taken another look at his homepage and discovered this gem

There are 4 things that I believe God has given me to do (and, obviously I can’t do myself. No Way possible from a human standpoint.

1) Create a Christian Ministry / Charitable Organization (on a large scale, but with the focus on reaching people on a “street” level.

2) Build a Formula 1® Team.

3) Drive for the Force 1 USA Formula 1® Team.

4) There is something involved with Israel and their neighbor Jordan. ( I do not know the exact details yet).

I laughed so hard at the last sentence I woke up one of my flatmates! Bathplugging hilarious stuff. I could read this nonsense all day!

You know what pisses me off most about the whole thing? His insistence on putting TM or the Registered Trademark symbol after every mention of F1, Formula 1 or Formula One.

I assume no-one told him that Bernie failed in his attempts to get them trademarked like a decade ago now?

Posted: **02 Feb 2013, 20:56**

Ah no, he's stopped allowing comments on his posts.

And can someone tell him how to use brackets properly. The amount of brackets left open is bloody ridiculous!

I wonder if by Israel, he means Jacob (see the father of Joesph in the book of Genesis) and his neighbour, Katy Price...

Yeah, and where "religious freedom" means "Christians and Jews only". But I digress...

Didn't Bernie get "Grand Prix" trademarked? Because I recall there being something between Bernie and Grand Prix Masters that forced them to change the name to GP Masters...

He did, but he couldn't get F1 trademarked because of the existence of the F1 powerboats.

Things must be going well for old Don, he's now on the lookout for some premises...

He's also raised the amount of money he wants for his Ponzi scheme invention to $500 MILLION. :shock:

So, Don. You started a post ranting about DA ONE WORLD GUBMINT which is ONE NATION FOR THE WORLD and fairly obviously COMMIES, but started it with a picture that, yes, we know it's you in your younger days, riding your scrambler to ONE MILLION CHAMPIONSHIPS, in 1970. Thing is, you've just revealed your bike was a JAWA. Made in CZECHOSLOVAKIA which in 1970 was run by COMMIES. What's wrong with you, Don, are you not a TRUE 'MERICAN? Why did you enter all those races on a COMMIE BIKE built by COMMIES instead of a TRUE 'MERICAN BIKE built by HARLEY-DAVIDSON in AMERICA? Surely any of its handling deficiencies (which you'll deny because the bike is 'MERICAN and therefore PERFECT) would be overcome by all that THROMPING 'MERICAN POWER which would soon beat all those other competitors on COMMIE BIKES and maybe a few others on JAP CRAP as well. (I know what I'd rather ride were I to be in such a competition, it'd be the one of these nations known for machinery that doesn't break down in the middle of a race. Eat my dirt. Hypothetically.)

Just keep digging that hole, Don! Dig fast enough and you'll be in China by dinner time.
