I wouldn’t say that it is any big crime in particular - I’d nominate the fact that sportsman racers get their trailers stolen all the time. I’ve spent the last ten years on and off covering doorslammer drag racing, and it seems like at every second event, somebody’s rig got broken into or stolen outright in a hotel

Does riding gear count? I’d nominate the helmet-back-protector-gloves combo worn with a T-shirt that ensures your central nervous system will be intact to transmit 100% of the pain impulses when you are flayed alive by the pavement.

Is the nose wheel supposed to be locked for landing and takeoff, and unlocked for taxiing?

I don’t know why you think this is a sentence fragment. It’s a perfectly cromulent phrase. Here, let me reorder it for you:

Do you really believe that, or are you trolling?

A world free from rolling resistance better be completely level, or shit is all going to end up piled up in the low spots.

How much of a profit margin do they have to have in order to finance as many as six separate “series” of commercials simultaneously, all with multiple “episodes”?

See, now you just need one of these so that you have your right hand free for sippin’

It’s really cute that you all have developed a convenient shorthand way to belittle anyone who has a different take on a story.

Good luck with that. Most fast food jobs aren’t worth the current minimum wage.

Finally, somebody has come up with a “supercar” that sounds worse than a Viper. I thought that day would never come...

Oof. 700 miles at 8 knots = something like 76 hours. Better bring something to read.

Well, Raph, at least he was driving his own car when he hit the wall.

Frankly, I am shocked that nobody has yet mentioned that the sticker might be white, with gold lettering, or blue, with black lettering...

Man, how hard is it to google an image of the missile in question?

I should totally move to San Bernardino. It must be a crime-free paradise, if they can devote this level of manpower and creativity to busting people not wearing seatbelts (a crime that’s it’s own punishment) and touching their phones when stopped (which I would much rather have than people messing with them while

You know what I would settle for?

There’s a reason we assign them mandatory bedtimes and don’t let them vote (insert your own 2016 Republican primary voter joke here).

Nothing but guys crashing test mules. It would be hard to get manufacturer support, but it would be very popular while it lasted...

Reminds me of when one of Jack Roush’s friends used his Jet Ranger to dry off the dragstrip at Bowling Green. I haven’t met many billionaires, but out of the ones I have, Don Bowles is my favorite. A regular guy who just happens to have the money to do anything he thinks is interesting.
