I’d never heard of that being suggested, and that car was already beat to hell—so, I did not. I might try to keep it in mind for future cars, though. Thanks.

I’m certainly with you there. Sorry I stirred the pot a bit much.

Motorsports is prohibitively expensive, and I imagine it still being seen as a “man’s world” means that many women who have interest don’t pursue it because of the limited success rate. A smaller pool of women drivers means that even if someone has that rare caliber of talent, funding, mechanical issues or the like…

Here to help.

I like where you’re head’s at. Bring a couple people for a video crew.

I may just be viewing the answer as much simpler (possibly over-simplifying it, but it’s been colored as such by my ideals): when women show potential and ability as drivers, I want that to be rewarded with opportunities. Then I hope their lap times and results can stand on their own. Racing at its heart is about…

...And made Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho (of “Idiocracy”) look diplomatic and well-tempered.

You’re asking for a “consistent performance delta between the genders” (sorry, I don’t do the engineering terms, so I’m a little lost as to exactly what you’re asking for out of the pools) but the fact is that kind of thinking that women must satisfy a prerequisite before being considered as capable of equality (and…

I have a simple solution. Race her for it.

I was prepared to believe you, and then you ended in Trump-Twitter form—I think you’re better than that. Also, there’s been another day a couple months ago where the editors specified no one was funny enough, so no COTD.

I think people were more capable of critical thinking in Nixon’s time. Or, they hadn’t bought into the “everything I don’t like is fake news” bullshit (because it hadn’t been sold to people en masse yet). Something.

My argument is that women are certainly capable of attaining the physical strength needed for competing at the highest levels of motorsport. I’m pretty sure that someone who’s trained as hard as people like Jessie Graff, Meagan Martin and others could withstand the forces of a formula one car or anything else. The…

Starred for promise of coke and hookers.

I know that feel. The doors on my old Integra used to freeze shut all the time in the winter. You have my sympathies, because I at least had a hatch. The thing that I found frustrating was that the handles worked fine, I think it was something wonky with the seals—so once I was in the car, it was cake to bump the door…

I feel like some of the women who are very into fitness (crossfit, American Nija Warrior, etc.) would be very good examples that gender means nothing as far as being capable of the physical strength and endurance to drive an F1 car (or any other vehicle) capably. Then it just boils down to skill, luck, and some aid…

That guy was hoarse by the end of it.

I can’t tell if you’re agreeing with criticism of the Civic Type R, or defending it.

Same.

Did you not see the references? I’m just following Fluffy6079's lead, not trying to make you incensed.
