1st: It would be funny if it weren’t sad. You know almost all of those workers voted for him.

I remember when I used to think the most egregious example of Americans getting short-changed was the E36 M3 getting only 240(-ish) horsepower compared to the Euro-spec’s 320.

I kinda want to restore an old Ford Prefect just so Americans finally get the joke of the name in Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.

Jalopnik staff: “We’re super hyped for this 2019 hot luxury hatch”

“What the hell are you kids doing out there?!?”

That’s called the pace car. It sets the speed of the race by nipping at the slower cars and keeping them all together. Sometimes, if the cars are going too fast or getting off course, or if one of the cars gets injured, the pace car will get out in front and lead the sheep racers until they get back on track.

Joker Laps - Maybe it makes sense in Rallycross, but joker laps are also used in the WTCR and Argentine TC2000, Ciruit racing series should not use joker laps

And most noise complaints done by the local residents, despite the race track being their 30 years before the house was built

Anything that mandates smaller engines, hybrids, or LESS NOISE. Four things i absolutely detest, even though i understand why they’re in use. I’m a part of the V8-12 cult.

Noise limits keep tracks open.

The entire nascar scoring/championship system. And the race stages.

The grammetical erratas in this story was to numerous to numerate.

You are not wrong. We should make a high-money, high-prestige organized “hill climb” style race at the Nordschleife with just 1 lap, all out, go.

Hot take:

Modern racing is boring as shit and goes on forever. Bring on the thousand horsepower electric rally time trials!

Pikes Peak is PERFECT for electric cars: Short distance is clearly within range limitations, tight turns leverage instant torque, elevation gains and reduced oxygen are irrelevant.

The 208 T16 wasn’t a hot rally car. It was a Le Mans prototype in disguise.

Should read: “No one failed to avoid never not escaping.”

The grammetical erratas in this story was to numerous to numerate.

It looked like just about everyone no one—barring leader Lewis Hamilton—managed to escape unscathed.

GM is probably pissed too that the Explorer went back to RWD based. They probably thought it would stay FWD based. GM has always stood to benefit by being a bit more daring but they rarely do.
