    So much this. A lot of electronic music is great like, say, Pretty Lights. But Skrillex is like getting glass shards thrown at your ears

    I have no idea about who's right about the legality. I pretty much ignored these cars because I can't bring myself to care about a car that just drives around in it's own class racing against no one. But honestly I thought these all were part of the same project because they're basically the same. But whatever. These

    I was impressed by the Porshes as well. Next year will be even better.

    Craftsman doesn't make fucking farm equipment.

    Clearly someone that's never getting to drive a press car ever again.

    I can't imagine them leaving F1 but if they did, it would be a nice fuck you to Bernie.

    But if they were to meet in the middle it would be $500MM more and that's not a lot for a company with a $30B market cap and $18.4B annual revenue.

    CVC Capital Partners and Lehman Brothers (yes, that Lehman) currently own about half of the sport and want to get the most out of it they can, though they've got that whole Bernie trial hanging over them. Lehmen, apparently thinks it's worth about $9 billion.http://jalopnik.com/why-f1-supremo...

    I remember a number of years ago during the race they had some issue with the car, maybe a transmission issue and they took the entire rear end off in minutes. I remember the commentators being stunned. The speed they're able to do stuff at is incredible.

    Audis seem to have a thing for crashing in spectacular fashion at Le Mans these past few years. Hell, one blew to pieces yesterday. It's this crash with Allan McNish at the wheel in 2011 that's the most stunning. A little bit further and we'd be looking at dead photographers. As it happened, everyone made it out

    The G forces in a car around a track are incredible. I'm quadriplegic which means I'm paralyzed from the chest down so I don't have any control over the muscles in my abdomen(you'll see why that's relevant in a second). So I got to ride around a track in an F430 with Dario Benuzzi driving. I had to hold on to the door

    LOL

    Glickenhaus is on Bloomberg once in a blue moon. Matt Miller should get the three of you together for a segment.

    I bet you hate your job right now while you drive an R8 on the Autobahn on the way to Le Mans.

    There's a full live show of them playing at KEXP on YouTube. And search YouTube for them playing 16 Years at Moog Sound Lab.

    Yeah, I've seen a lot of live music and they are among some of the great stuff I've seen.

    Yep. Saw them at Buku Fest here in New Orleans. Fucking incredible. One of my favorite bands.

    Between this and that destroyed Rolls Royce, we should petition to ban New Jersey from having nice things.

    Texas is pretty straightforward if you use oil and gas industry definitions. The panhandle is anything above the imaginary line that makes the Panhandle a square. Anything south of that and west of the east vertical panhandle border is West Texas. I imagine some Texan is going to correct me because Texas but whateva.

    lol
