Has anyone heard of The "San Marino Grand Prix" before?

And I believe your quote was 'I'd say you've never known much about real 'racing'. Well if you haven't heard of the San Marino GP, then sweetheart, it's you who hasn't got a clue.... I am not a Southern Belle (so you loose the bet there) as a matter of fact, I'm as far away from the south as you can get.. http://www.formula1.sm/menu_english.htm Maybe try this link and learn a little more before enforcing your not so educated opinion on others....

The San Marino Grand Prix was a Formula One championship race which had been run at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari in the town of Imola, near the Apennine mountains in Italy, since 1981. It is called the San Marino Grand Prix because there is already an Italian Grand Prix, and the republic of San Marino is itself too small to host a grand prix. In 1980, the Imola track was used for the 51st Italian Grand Prix. The area around Imola is home to several racing car manufacturers - namely Ferrari, Lamborghini and Maserati. Following the Second World War, the town launched a program to try to improve the local economy. Four local motor racing enthusiasts proposed the construction of a new road linking existing public roads, which could be used by the local car manufacturers to test their prototypes. Construction began in March 1950. The first test run took place two years later when Enzo Ferrari sent a car to the track.

Also worth adding that this last year looks like it may have been the final running of the San Marino Grand Prix. Some chance it may return to the F1 calendar in the future if there are some facilities upgrades, but F1 seems to be aiming to cut back on some European dates in order to expand into new markets. Sadly, Imola will also be forever known as the track where Senna lost his life in '94. And I believe your quote was 'I'd say you've never known much about real 'racing'.
