Do remember that the fine folks who run this site live in NYC. Given the sky high cost of NYC real estate I can only imagine what it costs to run a shop in rent alone. I have no first hand experience with living in NYC, thank God, but I wouldn’t be shocked to find out that there are no cheap neighborhood shops. At…
12,000km? Challenge Accepted!
stage 3 is about all ill watch now. One and two are formalities. A quick points grab for those who arent planning the long game always and a survival qualifying for everyone else.
Same dynamic as V8 supercars. It’s awesome.
If you’re willing to go looking for them, there are several touring car and GT racing series that run road courses exclusively, and quite a few of these feature the sort of fender-banging action you see in a NASCAR road race if that’s your thing. NASCAR’s roots are in oval-track racing, and while I’d like to see them…
Of course it’s silly—but it’s also de rigeur for US-based companies and interests. We’ve got a long and storied history of being just fine with absolutely brutal acts of violence in our entertainment (see also: American Football, MMA, etc.), but the second someone sees a breast, a butt, or a penis, it’s frogs raining…
Because America is weirdly puritannical when it comes to sex and sexuality. Violence? Good for children! A single butt cheek? Better slap an NC-17 rating on that baby.
something something shame something something modesty!!!!
Is it just me, or has Mercedes NEVER had a good styling department (ok, except for the 300SL)???
That is pretty much how it is now; the teams that can afford to pay drivers do, and the teams that funded by drivers don’t. The problem is there aren’t all that many paying seats out there, and they’ve been getting more and more scarce every year.
You said pretty much what I was thinking.
I’m not sure where I stand on this one. On the one hand, I think a fair portion of people would just be happy to race as it’s something they enjoy doing. On the other, I can understand that racing is a huge portion of your life and requires some serious time commitment, so you would likely need some kind of income…
The difference between motorsports and other athletics is that if you write a big enough check you can race in Formula One, IndyCar, or NASCAR. You’re not stroking a check to play quarterback in the NFL or start for an MLB team. I understand what Hinch is saying, but I’m not sure how a league minimum would work for…
Ahha the matching scrotum for the cocks that drive these things.
Not a huge fan either. But it’s no harder than BMW or Audi
ATS-V is a *lot* of car for $42k.
This is why I’m holding on to my MB E250 bluetec as long as possible. It’s been a fantastic car and can get 45+ hwy all day while having my bum heated and massaged! On a recent trip to key west from west palm beach, I was able to get an average of 50mpg.
800 PS = 789 hp = 588 kW.
