Regarding the changing track, various disturbances, etc, I’ve got a solution. Do it like twitch plays something. Everyone attending at the race is given a one time code for a smartphone app. This smartphone app takes instructions from everyone at the race who wants to participate, puts it into a central server that…

Not that anything about this is immediately feasible, but burning methane produces CO2 and Water, that’s it. CO2 is a hell of a less polluting gas than Methane is, so it won’t be that awful environmentally. That said, moving to a hydrogen/oxygen provided by solar electrolysis would be entirely clean, water into the…

People laugh, but these $100k trucks are often being purchased to haul $500k trailers and stuff like that, its not surprising at all...

Ships are the 18 wheeler’s of the sea right?

haha nope, big dealership chain in NJ area, they’ve got the entire spectrum from Kia to Aston Martin’s and everything in between.

What if instead of holding a 2500 pound battery and stuff over the car, you just make the tender be a low profile wedge shape, that can shove itself under the car you want to charge with some jacks that can grab the mount points and move the car up a bit so it can fit under. Tilt the car ~15 degrees to one side and…

That flat black finish on it with minimal branding really harkens back to the prototypes unlocked in Gran Turismo. I wish they’d keep it! I’m super excited for their combination though, if they get it right it should be spectacular.

Ugh, being a responsible adult doing adult things instead of watching racing and going to parties must be so hard. Congrats!

yeah F1 is a mad house relatively. WEC is absolutely fantastic how open it is. GA covers pretty much all you’ll need/want.

I love how its plenty of time to literally see every angle of the track with them still racing. there’s so many amazing views.

Please send me a link when you do, I don’t check oppo much/ever, I don’t wanna miss it.

So who’s going to COTA for Lone Star Le Mans September 15 - 16, 2017? Presumably the last chance to see a real LMP1 fight in America. I’ll be there.

lol what a shitshow... there’s a reason I left NJ...

Garbage in Garbage out.

Definitely gonna be 4 electric motors, one at each wheel then. /s

It really is incredible how pretty it looks just due to the quality of the photographs...

Which one?

Give it an app. Password enabled on the parents cell phone. Build in geofencing, allow limiting speeds, acceleration rates, other safety parameters all customization on the fly by the parent.

I’m liking the concept. I think going electric might be the way to go though, it really simplifies a lot, especially different body styles, as you could bring the whole “skateboard” concept to life in the small scale. I’m thinking like a car battery or an array of 6 motorcycle batteries, perhaps 2 or 12 for a top tier…

So a Jeep Go-Kart? something sized for 5-8 year olds?
