I think I read at the time his SS detail wasn't too keen on him flying in the plane. As a vet I'm sure he wanted to do it; this may have been before Parkinson's limited his mobility.
I had the pleasure of sitting next to the former POTUS and CIC at the Indy 500 in 2002. He and I shared some car stories and was incredibly thankful to be sitting next to a fellow Jalop instead of some lobbyist. The man just wanted to talk racing. As you can tell he also liked a good bloody.
It might've been difficult for him to get in/out of an Avenger due to his Parkinson's. Sitting down in a helicopter and falling out of a big open door would be easier for him than climbing up and sliding down into a small cockpit.
That's all right. If I make it to 90 I'll be lucky to hold my own farts, let alone jump out of an airplane.
How incredibly douche-tastic of these guys. Why would I throw away someone else's disposable cup ever, but especially at an interview? I have no idea if that person is finished using said cup - I for one find it more responsible to use the same cup all day. Playing tricks on your interviewees seems childish and…
This year marks the 98th Brickyard 500 - so called because of the three-feet of fired clay blocks set into the track at the start/finish line
Today is Memorial Day here in the U.S.. For those of you living outside our borders and unfamiliar with the holiday, it's a day in which we honor those who served our country for, most likely, kicking your country's butt. Yeah, we've been in fights with pretty much everybody - and we're not liking that stink-eye…
Why ten? Seriously, why not as many good answers as there are, rather than a 'round' number?
If I'm at my most generous, today's answers are only 50% correct and I still see that Jalopnik still can't tell the difference between a gentleman racer (McQueen, Perazzini, Kearby, Kaufmann and Duno in her Grand Am days) and a ride buyer (de Beaufort, Matsushita, Nissany, Nearburg, Miller and Duno everywhere else).…
Life long Motorcyclist here: As long as I have to wear a seatbelt in my car, lane splitting should be illegal.
The windshield was already damaged and a rear view mirror was missing. I don't think this is the first accident this douche bag has been in.
"Gentleman Driver" refers to amateurs (typically famous and/or wealthy) who enjoy racing. Paul Newman, Patrick Dempsey, and James Garner would be good examples. Gentleman Drivers are not professionals racing in F1 or any other series.
That's more beats per minute than an LAPD checkpoint in a Hispanic neighborhood.
This is horse shit. Carriages around Central Park is part of the charm and these... animal activist (read: pussies), think a fucking horse would be happy in a stable doing jack shit. Horses, like many work animals are happiest when they are doing something. People wonder why some dogs wreck the house when they're…
This applies.
Definitely has to be the Fiero!
There was plenty of years to post what a dick he was and plenty left to do so. This week? Poor taste Deadspin. #unsubscribe.
"Owned by jewish people"
That is a funny joke, and I bet it will catch many fools. Anyone with a clue would know that Will Power directed those gestures at Race Control in NH after a horrible decision on their part ruined his race, and that he is one of the nicest guys to meet in the paddock.
