Martin should probably just avoid interviewing any celebs, unless they come to him (and provide a resume in advance).

Ya, Collin wrote ‘concrete bollard’ twice in the story, so I’m not sure what he was smoking. Probably the same stuff the driver was.

Well, Isle of Man (and Irish Road) races are unique in the world.  Anything that happens there is impossible elsewhere.

True. I should have included the griping ride share drivers as well, as I do prefer them over the cabs in general, anywhere.

I’m starting to develop an early case of Schadenfreude for both Las Vegas and F1 due to the obscenely high prices. Fans are just wallets to vacuum cash from. I do hope it ultimately all goes well, but I would not be surprised if it all turns into a S*!t show. In Sept. the cabbies were griping and the strip was turning…

And, ironically, car theft is good for the car making and selling business.

I certainly wish the motorcyclist well. I hope its nothing serious.

“Having to take your eyes off the road is, was and always has been, a stupid, stupid idea. Touch screens should be outlawed for the safety hazard they are.”

So good old Rob Meloni is filing a news story, while driving!!!!

This is a strange story about a strange survey. Not much context and so many unexplained variables. Do I have to go read the survey?

I wrote a while ago that the CyberTruk was just Elon trolling the other truck makers; goading them into blowing investing gazillions of dollars into a folly endeavour.

“Last weekend 432,000 fans filled the Circuit of the Americas for the 2023 United States Grand Prix”

Maybe if COTA was a smoother track....

I’m no apologist either, but a little NVH sound-deadening material on the insides of the panels would likely eliminate noises. Virtually every car on the road needs this stuff. 

Or, get a bigger gun. That’s the typical solution (at least in Hollywood).

Ya, I’m looking forward to owners comments during the first few months of actual use.

Hammer and knife?? Isn’t that why people carry handguns in the car? Takes care of both problems.

At almost $60K, a used Land Rover Defender starts becoming a serious option.

“Oh and Jim Morrison was also quoted saying “this is the end”.”

Meh, the bar for exceeding human incompetence is actually pretty high.
