I used to be a photo editor at the Sporting News, and really love these stories you do. Nice work.

I thought we already did: the day before Memorial Day. Indy 500 and Coca Cola 600. With the Grand Prix of Monte Carlo as the appetizer.

My mom has a Prius. She had an A6 before it, and felt bad about how much gas it used. So when the BP spill happened, and she saw photos of the birds covered in oil, she went and bought it. It is a total piece of shit. And I won’t get into the driving characteristics of the thing.

Amazing the people shooting the video weren't decapitated.

This. Wasn’t just the most prestigious race in the States, but was the most prestigious race in the in the world.

I’d love to see what a race-prepped Tesla Model S (if that even exists) would do on Pikes Peak. Unlike the internal combustion cars, it wouldn’t lose power as it climbed in elevation.

Jimmy Fallon in SNL or Colin Farrell in Miami Vice?

I really don’t think it’s possible for a buzzer-beater to get any better than this.

Also people from Arkansas don’t go out of their way to tell everybody how nice they are. (which is a complete fallacy)

I'm glad I didn't do that at work.

Now if they’d only sell files that you could use with a Glowforge laser, since it did so well on preorders.

“Journalism is printing what someone else does not want printed. Everything else is public relations.” -George Orwell.

What I was going to say, but thought I’d check the comments first. “Toyota Hilux, great at waging war.”

Makes me wish Elson Floyd (RIP) was still president. Yes, he was part of the corporate education model, but he also would have handled all of this so much better. And would have had credibility with the LBC. He was a genuinely good person.

This car has to be a collector’s item...it’s the last one ever made with a wired phone handset.

Wasn’t the first Escalade rushed into production because they said “Holy shit! That Lincoln Navigator is killing us! What can we get to dealerships ASAP?”

I’m guessing the 30 For 30 series will soon be discontinued, with SportsCenter reruns to be shown in their place.

Maybe they also loan them out to college athletes, so it’s best to not have records.

Whenever I think of really cheap cars, I think of what DeMuro said when recalling shopping for a Ferrari: “The cheapest Ferrari is the most expensive Ferrari.” I think it fits for almost every car, unless it’s a shitbox that you plan on keeping a shitbox.

You forgot the piece on Burma. Which tried to hit as many topics as possible in 15-or-so minutes, making it feel like a drive-by. They could have done the entire episode on Burma...one story on the Muslim minority, one on the radical monks and one on Suu Kyi.
