But now that huge bombshell of a statement of fact looks like it could've just been based on a big stinking guess, instead. A user on the Mustang6G forums going by the handle of "Seth@Steeda" said that they hadn't actually, ya know, based that weight figure on anything real, but more just about what they think maybe,…

Well yeah. Wouldn't you if you got a chance to bust Justin Bieber?

I think it's cute, all you guys who want to call the cops. Like it's the 1950's.

Anyone who crashes the pace car is a twat. The only acceptable excuse is a sinkhole. If the Earth opens up and swallows you, that's a Mulligan.

Let Russia host 'em ALL then.

Also, that old BMW already set off, dude. He's about halfway through the drag strip by the time you thought about going. This is just a losing situation all around. Have you ever tried driving something with four wheels? I hear those don't flip over as easily. I'm just here to help. Really.

Any race car — any make, type, class, or other designation. Because no matter what's wrong, you HAVE to get it fixed perfectly before the next session,

Want to put in a new clutch? You have 20 minutes...

I'm not sure if this was embarrassing or cool...

My daily commute takes me down an off ramp to a stop light, then a right turn to a road that usually has a lot of semi's parked along side of it in front of a convenience store — an impromptu truck stop of sorts.

One day, it had just started to drizzle a little bit and I…

Or Carl's Corner.

Regulators are now checking with automakers to see what the deal is with their airbags.

It certainly is!

(Wait, we're talking about his ego, right?)

Folks have been doing this for decades. Its nothing new. I grew up in a rural community and this was a common method for reseating tractor tires.

Because NASCAR doesn't run in the wet. At all. Indy car does, so it's not unusual to see the cars running on a thoroughly wet track. Standing water is generally OK unless it presents a situation where its unavoidable, like when there's rivers of deep water flowing across the track (Interlagos is notorious for…

I had something similar happen in a LeMons car (a Neon.) the owner, Sam, and I were thrashing the snot out of it, bot to see what would break and to use up the last of the street tires.

So I'm driving and the Sam is in the passenger seat (we hadn't pulled it yet,) and we're going around a big, 180-degree left-hand…

Didn't know it was there? That's no excuse. As a race car driver, you're supposed to know the condition of the entire track, including temporary hazards such as standing water, debris, and slow or disabled cars. If you don't, then you don't drive the track at speed. You take a reconnaissance lap — that's what…

Top Tip: Don't drive through standing water. Change your line.

After a few more views, here's what's going on. The Ford driver drops two off at the exit of the preceeding corner. As he trys to get back on the racing surface, the back end steps out. Maybe he got on the brakes, maybe it was the curbing. I dunno. But when the tail steps out, he counter-steers appropriately and…

Who is Durex? Are they an aftermarket supplier for Subaru?

As bad as the VW driver was in the previous post, this guy is good. He drops two wheels off, but instead of tryuing to swerve back onto the track and causing a spin, the Ford driver let's the car go where it wants, and where it wants os on the OTHER side of the track. So be it. He goes to the inside, keeps the car…
