I said it earlier in the week, even if the answer is Miata, the real answer is Saturn V.

I miss Phil.

Yep. It was good. I don't remember what I sang as I was petrified, but I tried to get my wife up there with me and she was having no part of it. One of those things I can say I have done and now I can't move on.

Sad news. By all accounts she was an interesting person and still very much active in the world of motorsports.

I was at Will's karaoke event at Austin last year. Dude can sing and has no shame.

While looking at your video I saw this, much funnier video, off on the right.

Good sir, we would enjoy a large standalone post about tunneling, TBMs and the future of excavation. An example: what would it take to excavate Elon Musk's hyper tube thing from LA to SF?

With the smoke and flames would you be able to see if it knocked over a cone?

Saturn V is always the answer. Even when Miata is the answer, Saturn V is really the answer.

As seen in their natural habitat.

There are a bunch of very lucky people right there. Drivers, Marshall's and camera man. Damn. You never want to see a car take a hit on the roof like that either.

Yeah, the price of the X is nuts. I got my VIII for $27500 in 2003. That would be $35000 in today's money per the gov. You can kind of see $35K, but not $45k.

Yeah, I'm an Evo owner and even I acknowledge that the base car isn't something I would want to drive.

The base Lancer is/was a cheap as can be, no frills four door that had questionable styling and even more questionable reliability. The RallyArt was a bit better. Now, give the chassis over to the stern faced engineers, who have a thing for going sideways on dirt, and you end up with an icon.

While the video had a couple of nice beauty shots in it, it really didn't do much to say why composites are important and why they provide much advantage over other materials. I understand it is intended for laypeople, but it would have been nice to see a little bit of gee wiz stuff.

You can freeze pancakes too. Just cook lightly and put them on a low setting in the toaster when you want to bring them back to life.

FIA World Endurance Championship 6 Hours

I will have to listen to this one a few more times. I go more for their big band sound than the moodier pieces.

The lack of factory P cars certainly detracts a bit.

Red Bull drivers and the Infinity rep.
