Remember
Forget "torque ratios", this is the worst Liberty Mutual ad
Okay, not so much, but the inability to do something as fundamental as change a tire, and the resulting emasculation (ladies, you should know how to change tires too. This ad was all-boy) is sad.

Oh fuck
Billy Monger, the 17 year old British F4 driver who was injured in that violent crash last weekend at Donington Park lost both of his lower legs as a result of the crash.

The Indy 500 Continuum
What does 100 Indianapolis 500s worth of drivers look like? Full size version here. I planned to make it a bit fancier, but I ran out of hardware.

Toyota Pro-Celebrity Race Stupidity
