The Rapione letter about playing for Russia... isn’t she kinda already?

Rumor has it the reporter asked him if he was being deported.

Italy borders france and Germany I wouldn’t try to geographically separate them.

Brazil?  While the resources invested in some of these teams may not be significant they’re very good teams that I believe had certain expectations to be better than a lot of the teams that beat them.

USA + 7 teams from Europe
Teams eliminated in the round of 16 Spain (by the US) and 7 teams not from Europe.

That just seems very odd to me.

but his name is Kumar...

I’m a Michigan fan. I watched bits and pieces of the game last night. His slider is ace level filthy. He’s a right handed pitcher who slays lefties and it is all because of his nasty slider. The only MLB pitcher I can think of with a slider that beautiful is Max Scherzer.

I’m not saying Rocker is Max Scherzer or the…

I live in Holland... Michigan.  People here put mayo on their fries all the time.  I waited tables for 6 years.  Mayo is as popular as ketchup or ranch for fries.

My 2012 Legacy hasn’t been in for unplanned maintenance so far so good.

Cup series belongs at Mid Ohio and at Road America.  Mosport is really freaking dangerous to begin with.  I’m not sure how the Cup Cars would do there.  Send them to Montreal with Indy Car instead.  XFinity went to Montreal for a few years.

Now this is a good idea. I don’t think “just run the boot” is the best idea. I do think running it twice with different configurations is brilliant.

Make the Boot race your 4th of July Saturday race ahead of IMSA and move the traditional cup layout race into the playoffs.

Then move the Charlotte Roval somewhere else.

Alanis I really miss you being the full time race reporter at Jalopnik.

One of the cars was a lot cheaper than the others.  There’s a reason it was cheaper.  It was made cheaper.

You’re missing a key point. Toyota had no new tires left. The tires they put on the car had already done quadruple stints. That was why they decided to change 1 tire.

However, with that lead they could have taken the time to inspect the tires before sending the car back out.

I totally believed you until you said there would be a cooler of Rich Energy.

I was looking through the comments for your reply. I knew you’d have something to say!

How’s this?  We’re only getting ~6,000 fans.  Let’s split our games with the last city to struggle to get more than ~6,000 fans!  What could go wrong?

It’s nascar.

RE Airport food: You’re about to be stuck in a metal tube with stale air for an extended period of time. Keep It Simple Stupid

Don’t eat too much. Don’t eat too greasy. Don’t drink too much. I assure you there is nothing worse than being stuck on a puddle jumper in extreme turbulence with an upset stomach.  And I’m not…

I believe the Toyota budget for their TSO50 is well over 9 figures. The budget for the new class is expected to be somewhere below $20m.
