Ha. Ice speedway. Guys have to wear armor to protect them from the wheel studs (5cm/2") and the bikes don’t have neutral. So those bonesaws continue chewing when they crash.

Meanwhile, at a random field somewhere in the UK,

There’s one thing crazier than dirt track racing, sidecar dirt track. Note the nitrous purge at 0:50 and the passengers hanging off while racing

Immediate axle shaft failure at 30% throttle.

It’s hard to keep my two jobs separate sometimes.

Hey now, don’t forget about Torch. He and Tracy are both certifiably nuts (in the best way).

There’s THIS....and then there’s the rest of Jalopnik. Hard to believe this is on the same site. Thanks for the awesome posts Mr. Tracy. One of the only reasons I keep coming back.

I don’t know what Millennials you know, but very few of us own homes. Rent and home prices are high. This is right up many peoples alleys because the rent is relatively cheap. The oldest of Gen Z is barley finishing college, if that. And they’ll probably be just as screwed as us, if not worse.

This should be the response 100% of the time.

Interestingly, the use of a pilot doesn’t mean the pilot is steering the ship. Which is why there is a fight about who is responsible. AFAIK the pilot gives direction, but it’s up to the ship captain, et al, to deal with it. Had the Ever Given been a normal sized cargo ship that the pilot had dealt with before I am…

I once got so drunk on a red-eye flight to Germany from Philly, that I accidentally tipped the stewardess $20 for “being the bringer of fun” and then she hooked it up with a few free drinks until I peacefully fell asleep.

I see no mention of what excuse was used to get around that.

“I’m a cop” seems to be all the excuse that’s needed any more. 

I said the same about paying the fines and civil penalties from police pension funds for a decade because they will only stop when they cannot retire due to the fact that the pension fund has been depleted because of their illegal activities. Under the current situation they have no incentive to change when someone…

Do any of those good cop stories involve them arresting their corrupt hick counterparts right there in public when they commit a crime against the public? That is why there are no good cops, because they never turn around stuff their buddy into the back of their own cruiser when they start shit.

>the good cops will need to keep their mouths shut and bite their lips so they don’t upset everyone else.

So awesome that he’s also the President of the Colorado Fraternal Order of Police, where his guidance and leadership will affect the attitudes and ethics of so many officers. Ugh. 

“out of alignment with the proper practice of having the state issue special license plates for undercover police officers.”
No, it’s a felony and the cop should be arrested and tried plus the department should be sanctioned for allowing it.  All the costs of the case should also be taken from the PD’s pension fund,…

This seems like a pretty obvious case of Bad Cop Being Bad. Why would this guy not be bounced out on his ass, again?
