I second the motion for a Type R touring package.

Perhaps it’s just been so long since they’ve won a championship?  (I kid, I kid...  I know it’s a Honda engine in the back of the Red Bull F1 cars)

I feel like they close the museum campus and Grant/Millennium Park for every third weekend anyway. Taste of Chicago, Lollapalooza, the Marathon, Bike the Drive... It’s not unusual.

Indeed.  And, let’s face it, Ferrari spreads its R&D out to Alfa and Haas as well.  McLaren with Williams, too.

I love Horner’s talk of budget caps and retaining talent in F1.

The large print giveth, the small print taketh away. 

Still hung up on a “beach” car.  Are we driving TO the beach, or ON the beach?  If it is the former, why does it matter unless you’re hauling surf boards.  If it’s the latter, than you need a Meyers Manx.  

This is why Walmart uses the term “rollback.” It can mean what they need it to mean. Like “When we first carried this TV two years ago, it was $1,899, but now it’s $1,499.”

This is the correct answer.  They did not have enough experience with what to do when the car lost traction at first.  They never lifted, they had no fine throttle control.  A good driver would have been able to modulate the throttle to regain traction at the moment it started to go.  Yes, even in a Viper, yes even on…

Plus, that $1M isn’t for just him. Add a significant other, Jos, a trainer, a manager, a few friends...

Yeah, we saw drivers off and over the tire piles to the point where the workers didn’t see them (it was at night) and other drivers needed to direct crews to where the cars where.  It didn’t feel safe.

We raced Nelson with Champcar two years ago.  The lack of safe barriers in many run-off areas were just plain scary.  We loved the layout, but didn’t feel safe with just piles of random tires as a tire wall.

Can confirm.

I had directional wheels on my ‘89 CRX. Honda (back in those days) really sweated the details. It had 2 pairs of wheels, so the spokes all went the same direction all around. It was a nice touch.

Pop-up headlights suck.

I’m kind of surprised the 100% redundant brand of GMC trucks didn’t show up on this list. Have Chevy sell all the consumer products, have GMC sell all the commercial products and stop the idiot fallacy that Denali is it’s own brand.

When you return your rental at O’Hare, or merely drive through to drop off or pick up at the International terminal, take a moment to remember why, exactly, you are on Bessie Coleman Dr. at one of the world’s busiest airports. Millions of people will visit her namesake every year. This puts life into her story.

No, it does.  They just cut the post-race to about 3 minutes if it runs long.

I know I’d pay that much for some of the special cars.  But I know most Hot Wheels are intended to be the $1 placebo for kids out shopping with parents who just want to give them something cheap...  But, then again, I’m 50 and just bought one for myself recently...

Discount, refund, incentive, rebate, sale.
