Thanks, I noticed a lot of people came to the conclusion that "yeah, it's nuts but it's fun/unique." I wasn't feeling it. After the novelty of the noise and gut-busting acceleration wore off, about an hour, I started liking this thing less and less.

This is the best damn review I've ever read.

Good. I'm glad he isn't. I'm not a big Tony Stewart (or NASCAR) fan and I'm not convinced he did absolutely nothing wrong regarding this crash, but I don't think Steart deserves to be literally burned at the stake the way most people on the internet believe he should. Obviously the death of anyone is a terrible

This is fantastic, its good to see a news organization actually do some reporting and investigating in an attempt to educate its viewers rather than make wild uneducated accusations based on prejudice and increased ratings.

Wait you mean he isnt getting the chair for this? But the hoardes of Internet Torches and Pitchforks Local 243 demand justice.

For starters, I'm not a Tony Stewart fan. I've watched this tragic video over and over again. I can find no fault with Tony for what happened. Tony was holding his line and the kid ran out in front of the car. Bad judgement on his part. Unlike a lot of commenter's here, I HAVE raced sprint car on dirt tracks for over

You are assuming that these mud buggies with solid rear axle and bigger tires on the outside drives exactly like a conventional road going race car, it is not the case. Applying power to steer quicker toward the infield was indeed an evasive manoeuver. Also, don't forget they drive on dirt, not on asphalt, take your

Great resume of the whole mess, let's hope this puts all the comments calling Stewart for straight up murdering Ward in cold blood to rest. They way I see it, gunning the engine to try and slide the car around Ward or gunning it to scare/spray him with mud are the only realistic options here, with Ward's death being

What Stewart's intentions may or may not have been is really a moot point—Ward stepped out of his car on to a hot track and ran at another car, and got hit. There's no way any charges will be filed.

You guys might want to make it clear, since there seem to be a ton of mis/uninformed commenters who think they understand sprint cars, exactly what makes them difficult to handle. Maybe post an article with just a little educational material, because the amount of wild speculation coming from people who just have no

I am reposting a post on Reddit by user iksbob regarding sprint cars where he explains some technical caveats

Too late. The ignorant mob's torches have been lit.

In 1875, Austrian Sigfried Marcus built the first working internal combustion gasoline engine, a good eleven or so years before Karl Benz' motorwagen. Of course, soon after, we do get to the Benz Motorwagen, and that, with its Otto-cycle engine, was one of the pioneers of modern automobiles.

Are you dense? I was simply saying that the AMG is heavier, because of the turbos. You said to take them away. That's not how it works, just like you can't take away 3 liters from the LS7.

Ugggg. Tell me how much that small block makes when it's cut down to 4 liters. That's right, it was putting out a paltry 200 hp and 235 lb-ft when it was 4.3 liters.

Are you an idiot?

Just think of the questions that can't be answered with "Miata" that can be with "Fender sink."

I'm very much an auto enthusiast, thank you very much. I also happen to be a paramedic, and I'd say that I've seen way more accidents than one will (and should) see in a lifetime. Lowered cars, ok, but negative camber reduces the surface of contact between the tire and the pavement (and also unevenly wears your

The higher the lift on a street truck, the lower the IQ of the driver. Off road, go for it!
