The stars have certainly aligned for Vettel in his Formula 1 career. That said his talent as a driver is undeniable. All Formula 1 drivers are incredibly talented but I consider Vettel, Hamilton and Alonzo the cream of the crop. Each, however, has their 'quirks' or at least their moments (which is only human). …

Sweet! I'm not a huge Lamborghini fan but with that kind of power and weight the car should put-down some awesome lap times on a road course. Frankly, I'm glad to see there's 20 Lambo owners who'll risk their million dollar machines on a road course. Newer exotics aren't that common in the amateur racing…

That's sad.....my thoughts and prayers are with the deceased, his family and friends. I hope when safety and car recovery procedures are reviewed they learn and implement safer ways to remove stranded vehicles. Perhaps keeping the towed vehicle level and high enough it doesn't obstruct the tow vehicle operator's…

It should be obvious, always lock your doors....even in Jellystone Park. As this learned behavior is passed from bear to bear such intrusions will be more common. Yogi now knows there's an easier way than ripping-the door off its hinges. Can Boo-Boo joy-riding be far behind?

That looks like the lock device I use to 'secure' my auto trailer. I often use a large chain & padlock to secure both wheels on the other side of the trailer for added security.

Kudos to Jack White....his tax deduction aside that's a generous act to save a historic venue he loves. His popularity just increased a few notches in my book. Good on him!

First, it appeared that his windshield wipers were running on intermittent instead of being on high speed. Visibility seemed worse than it should have been. Then he says both side windows broke and he was "flushed" from the vehicle. How does that happen without releasing the 'seatbelt' first? Perhaps this was one…

Not his own car? If true that only reinforces why I don't like to drive anyone else's car or let anyone else drive my car. I've got enough of my own stuff to be responsible for without being responsible for someone else's car. Conversely, I hate to put the burden of responsibility....of liability on someone else…

Certainly, there are many cars capable of performing comparably to (or better than) the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG on a road course. Other make cars may work well (as safety cars) in other racing venues but for Formula 1 the SLS has my vote. The SLS does its job well and it does it in style....it's a perfect blend of…

How sad....my thoughts and prayers are with the victims, families and friends. As an avid, amateur road racer I realize risk is something all racers face....even at the club racing level. Even following stringent safety protocols 'freak,' fatal accidents can happen. How sad....what was supposed to have been a…

I'm an avid amateur road racer and Formula 1 is (still for the time being) my favorite form of racing. Ever smaller forced induction engines.....say it isn't so! Leave it to Bernie to screw-up F1 racing. I'm sick of downsized engines and gimmicky green technology. There's a time and place for smaller engines and…

I'm not particularly fond of heights especially when coupled with the risk of a long drop with a quick stop.

Holy shit! You'd think you could charter a private jet for less. No wonder I hardly fly anywhere anymore.

Offered is fine but sadly the trend toward low-power and alternate energy vehicles is being forced on the public by government regulations and mandates. As we've seen so often the government fails miserably when it tries to legislate consumer demand (or be fiscally responsible, etc.) . I hope these type vehicles are…

Although each team runs the same tires, IMO the 'degradation by design' Pirelli tires have become a far too influential factor in race strategy, racecar performance and in the outcome of each race. Give the teams the best designed tires for grip and longevity possible. Formula 1 is about the best race cars, the best…

Whether the result of Aston Martin bean-counters or the arrogant, dictatorial, ‘green’ government bureaucratic trolls the loss of the V12 Vantage power plant is a sad day for car enthusiasts everywhere.

Michael Schumacher driving an F1 car on the Nürburgring Nordschleife....that could be seriously amazing! Both Schumacher and The Ring may be showing signs of age but without question both are legends....and both remain formidable. I hope the event is more than a short-shifting PR event. I also hope the event gets the…

I don’t think a photographer has to search for the worst image of Bernie to use. There are no “worst” images of the man. His natural good looks and likable personality oozes-through in every photo of the man. Bernie is a creeping looking (ugly) little troll but as always, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Looks…

Very strange!

The Chevrolet Corvette has had some weak generations with respect to design but IMHO the Corvette C6 is one of the finest looking performance cars in the world. It possesses clean lines, functionality of design and beauty. In both exterior appearance and performance the Corvette C6 to compares favorably with many of…
