That Morgan... *monocle pops out*

All I want for Christmas is a BPR Global GT revival

Had IndyCar used blue flags at Mid Ohio last weekend, a few cars running in the top 5 could have had a fighting chance at the win. Instead a bunch of lapped cars were basically blocking them for the final dozen laps on a small track with limited passing opportunities.

I think lapped cars should be allowed to turn around and drive in the opposite direction at full throttle, take out a few opponents, then pause and hit ‘Restart Race’.

It’s funny you mention that. I have a background in dealer ops management before taking up a career in building software and interface experiences... with a couple OEMs as past clients, and one of them was a certain Detroit-based make. So yes, I do have an idea.

Allegedly the plastic cladding is simply stuck on. I will be investigating this for future blogs.

My thoughts exactly. My suggestion would be: “Battery McBatteryface”. It rolls off the tongue a little better IMHO.

All I see are a whole bunch of these:
