If we — and the drivers — don't know what it is that got Clements into hot water, how will we know what the sport's standards are? How can drivers avoid breaking the rules if they don't know how the rules were broken?

Did you really compare driving down the highway with law enforcement? They're completely different things.

Who freezes produce?

None, but I fail to see how Driver A is responsible for Driver B's actions, unless you're imagining a far more evasive maneuver than I am.

I fail to see how anyone else is responsible for someone else cutting across lanes.

Gotta love contractors who are too lazy to bolt god-knows-how-heavy concrete slabs to the ceiling. Better off just using epoxy.

So why don't all manufacturers just use autocross tires? If they can't then the same tires that ship with the car get tested. Swaps are allowed (to account for wear, during filming), as long as the same tire model is used.

I'm more surprised the truck could handle the recoil.

He's already demonstrated he can't keep it in control. Why is this so hard to understand? If he was driving a truck and wasn't an author, you'd be chewing his ass out.

Makes sense with FI.

Ok, so you compensate for it by going slower, not by blitzing past other traffic.

There's glass around the ice at a hockey game, why not a NASCAR race?

Does coffee so ungodly hot that it melts through Styrofoam make a difference?

Of all the outcomes, I can guarantee NO action will be taken against ANY driver.

Yes, but it also involves being responsible around other people. He can do what he wants in a parking lot, but if he spun out already, why is he passing other cars on the highway? This is pretty damn clear. Quit giving him a break because he writes for Jalopnik.

streaming past timid commuters in four-wheel-drive SUVs and front-wheel-drive compacts.

Well there you go. Shitty contractors.

Everyone seems to keep forgetting the transmission that goes between the engine and and the gearbox. Torque converters are basically CVTs that are extremely lossy.

He spun out previously. I think that shows his experience.
