These are very fun little machines... I sold one earlier this week and simply can’t get enough of them considering how many customers I have who want one. If investing in cars is your thing, now is the time to buy one.

Roger let Paul Tracy drive?

The two best race weekends at Road Atlanta - Petit Le Mans and the Walter Mitty, are at the peak of the fall and spring rainy season. It makes for interesting racing, but holy shit you need to bring a lot of dry clothes and beer to get through two nights of camping at the track. Wouldn’t trade it for anything.

I’d bet a decent amount of money they will hire at least Buxton. Hobbs may decide to retire (he hasn’t been in perfect health of late) and I don’t know about Mr. Matchett. But to be honest I don’t think ESPN will pursue Diffey’s contract I think they will either aim to bring back Bob Varsha or seek someone new for…

I do enjoy the entire crew, but make or break for me is Will Buxton.

If they don’t keep Steve Matchett, David Hobbs, Leigh Diffey, and Will Buxton I’ll be very sad.

That plane did shed blades. Big, honking fan blades, not turbine blades. The whole fan, which produces the majority of the thrust, came off the engine. That is a huge hunk of metal.

As usual, God gets all the credit.

Find an engineer, any engineer, and kiss them. This is what engineers yield when safety is a higher priority than cost-cutting.

Agreed, although it would still scare the shit out of me.

All modern airplanes are designed to be able to sustain flight and safely land on a engine failure...

Class 11 is the classiest class of all the classes.

Boldy go where no van has gone before!

I’ve been thinking long and hard about why modern-day supercars just don’t excite me like they used to, and I think part of the reason is that they’re pretty good at being cars most of the time.

**Hot take**

Not usually a fan of covers, but this is by far and away the best cover of Black Hole Sun by Norah Jones as a tribute to Chris Cornell.
