Jalopnik isn’t a comprehensive global news site. As others have said, we also read global news sites, and this is the first we’ve heard of it.  There was no need to post such a negative remark.  Let us know when you are on the editorial board of the site.

Sorry, but the “cancel culture” that you seem to be complaining about is called accountability. She was free to speak however she wanted, just as Disney had the right to fire her for her hateful comments.

I was thinking it’s the first time I’ve ever heard anyone refer to Diablos as a “dope ass monster.”  Not my first thought when I first hunted it.

They’re already allowed for road courses, but the weather hasn’t necessitated their use since NASCAR implemented them.

So you’re complaint on the lane keep assist is either that it isn’t more aggressive (which consumers tend to hate so much they turn it off, defeating the entire purpose of the safety feature), or that it doesn’t behave like a self-driving car (which I know you don’t think it is).  Just seems like an odd complaint to…

Boring cookie cutter 1.5 mile layout.

They could also choose to keep the land and lease it out instead, providing for steadier income, as that is another option that has been mentioned.

As this is a highly demanding track that most drivers have no experience on, and the loads being higher than other circuits, I’m expecting there to be errors due to fatigue.  This will be a challenge for a lot of teams, and I wouldn’t predict anything in advance.  It’s highly likely you’ll see drivers make brave moves…

You’re part right, and mostly wrong.  I won’t reveal which aspects are which in order to prevent spoiling it.  I‘be been excited by this since I heard Denis Villeneuve was directing.  One of my all time favorite book series, which is hard to adapt for many reasons, but if there is anyone who can provide the…

Some dealers are almost out of inventory. One dealer around me routinely sells 100 new vehicles a month, and they’re almost out while still cutting back on their discounts.  Dealers are not discounting nearly as deeply as before for the reason you mentioned, thinking long term and making sure they have inventory to…

As a fan of the series from the very beginning, the choice of that one track has me very excited, Trial Mountain!  Looks like we’re getting at least some of the classic tracks back!

I’d say it’s right up there with Ford’s presidency.  Ford may have pardoned him, but he’s not trying to surpass his level of corruption and see how far he can get before it catches up to him.

Being a Chevy salesman in New England, I see this all the time with truck buyers. We literally can’t hang on to the new Trail Bosses (we’d sell out of double cab LT Trail Bosses if they actually existed), and people still want to lift the new HDs. The size of the ego tends to match the size of the desired truck.  I…

Erik, you might want to revisit David Tracy’s article on the GM 3.0 Duramax fuel economy, as it has a significant fuel economy advantage over Ford and is, currently, the king of fuel economy in the segment.

So, when is Legends starting then?

In this particular case, yes, it is Google.  The problem I have (SVJim seems to share this view), is when you go onto a site or click a video, and an ad pops up and obscures it as you are part way through.  When it goes away, the screen reloads at the top of the page or you miss an important part of a video.

NASCAR refers to Michigan as the fastest track that they currently visit, where they circle the track in around 50 seconds per lap, but they lap Bristol in under 15 seconds routinely. I never here this argument there. And yes, Daytona and Talladega have higher track record speeds than Michigan, but those were before…

Also, I’d like to point out that Portland, ME, is western Maine. Lubec, ME, is the eastern most point in the United States and is almost 250 miles east of Portland. Detroit to Denver is not halfway across the country, as a true cross country trip from the most eastern point in the US to the most western point in the…

They seem to solely define themselves as the party of “against whatever the other party is for, logic and facts be damned.”

Counterpoint, plate racing is boring in general and is not what I call good racing.  Does it make it look interesting, yes, but I would posit that a more interesting race occurs when the cars are spaced further apart and can pass organically, rather than because they can pull a tow from a line of 8 cars in front.…
