She did something that too many of her contemporaries were unable to do. She lived to an old an presumably happy age. Perhaps now she and Fangio can see just how fast she can make a Maserati go on the streets of Heaven...

Some say he haunts an abandoned hangar at an aerodrome in Dunsfold. And late at night, on a full moon, you can hear the sounds of a Pagani Zonda screaming around the runways-but there’s nothing there . . .

Two stories, one happy, one not.

I saw the Kuwaiti 747 at Dallas Love Field two weeks ago, and every time I pass by there it’s still parked out there.

Congrats, you just won The Stupidest Comment On Jalopnik Today Award!

And Kurt Bush finished third, despite stopping for a flat tire early in the race. Harvick’s team should have called him in, and Johnson should have let Harvick go when he realised he wasn’t going to let him go by.

They can’t confiscate the car; he owns it. But I imagine he won’t be invited to purchase any limited edition cars again. And I bet there’s a clause in the LaFerrari warranty about damage caused by racing that will void it.

Considering how protective Ferrari is of their brand, they probably have a “Don’t Sell” list somewhere with a new name on it. And a LaFerrari has a voided warranty, too.

He’s like, “Yeah, I crashed, let me sign some autographs now.” Knows what’s important.

Big Daddy Don Garlits could make anything run, even converting a propane-fueled Hemi into gas that hasn’t run in decades. Because, Big Daddy.

A driver got out of his car, walked in the middle of an active race track, and forced people to swerve around him. Maybe if he hadn’t been high, or a pissed-off kid, he would be alive today. That’s the fact, and his…

Tony Stewart has done a lot behind the scenes for people. Things he’s never gotten publicity for, or wanted. Some people don’t need the limelight on them when they do something good.

Somebody just has to be an asshole at a moment like this. Thanks.

Yes, true. He designed this and got it on the cover of Car and Driver back in the David E. Davis days.

I’ve been thinking about canopies on Indycars . . .

He brought some joy to kids who needed it, made people feel better and represented the ideals of being a super hero. Tonight, the Bat Signal will be dark over Gotham.

Rumor has it that the repaving might mean opening up the “Boot” section to NASCAR next season. Longer track, more turns, more fun.

Bob Bahre (owner of New Hampshire Motor Speedway) and SMI bought North Wilkesboro jointly in 1996 to split the track’s dates between Texas and New Hampshire. SMI bought New Hampshire in 2007, getting full ownership of North Wilkesboro as well.
