Jason, I expect a full review of this car after Jalopnik gives you one as a bonus for a job well done.

You have to give the teams credit for creative thinking even if it could be potentially dangerous. Who would have thought of drilling micro holes in a tire so that air pressure remains more constant? I guess if you are not cheating, you are not trying hard enough. Pretty big penalties though for one hole drilled less…

You nailed it. Best post of the day! Have a day filled with awesomeness!

The 300 SLR belongs in the Hall of Fame of cars, but it does not have a Ferrari V12 engine, which alone puts it into the upper stratosphere of cars.

Yes, you nailed it. The lineage does not seem there. Almost like a sharp break or cutoff from the past. But, given the total housecleaning at the F1 side of things, this FXX K seems like it is pointing to a new direction that Ferrari will be taking. While it is not bellissima as you said, it does have a certain…

Perfect!

Yes, I have seen them and I agree with you. The design theme must be ovulation these days with a little conceiving thrown in.

I like it. I am really digging the fighter jet canopy and winglets on the little dorsal fins at the rear. I actually a little of the design element that Ferrari is proposing for a concept of a future F1 car:

You wag, good one!

I know as others have pointed it out and I know it too. Unfortunately, I cannot edit the picture now.

You are right. I didn’t even notice that as I was having such a good time googling Alfas. Thanks for pointing it out!

Are you for real? Since when did Jalopnik appoint you to go around and correct people? I am going to be magnanimous to you because it is almost Passover, but you Sir need to check your dictionary. This from the free dictionary online:

I too Patrick am in love with Alfas. Some more Alfa goodness:

Fabulous story. The Bridge was a victim of what has faced many other tracks that have gone by the wayside as there was a lack of money to upgrade the circuit and worse, the town passed a noise ordinance that pretty much killed any big time racing. It was such a shame.

Not too long ago, 300 hp was amazing in a car. Now, it is possible with a bike. Horsepower proliferation ftw!

Yes I did. Huge oversight on my part.

Oh, I wish I had your e-mail so that I could see those pictures. I hope someday soon to visit the Museum in Midland. Jim Hall is my all time favorite driver and constructor and I would like to say that this is the hand that shook the hand.

I remember watching a program called “Six Roads to Glory” about the 1967 Can Am races. Bruce McLaren was asked about the color and he mentioned how it would stand out. For me, it defines McLaren, at least before Ron Dennis and Project 4 got a hold of the team. I remember crying when I heard of Bruce’s unfortunate…

More like chop suey than sushi.

McLaren originally raced in the New Zealand colors of black and silver for the Mk IA, then red for the Mk IB, then Papaya Orange for the Mk 6A all the way to the Mk 20 along with his Formula 1 cars. The answer is simple as to the choice of Papaya Orange: to better stand out with the TV cameras! And, they did stand out…
