This, more interested in how they did the gearing and aerodynamics since there is a distance limitation.

Really not that impressive. They went with an iron block and I’m sure put head studs in it, then dialed the boost to the moon with an optimized intake tract. What’s more impressive is that they hit 260mph with around 200hp. I’m more interested in the aerodynamics than the engine.

So 260 mph on around 190 hp? Not bad at all. Consumer vehicles are finally reaching 150-160 mph with around 200 hp, and even that is amazing.

A dash of methanol in his gas can mixture would change the specific gravity just enough to be disqualified. That’s why when I was karting I always had my own testing gear to make sure my fuel was compliant as I fuelled up for the next heat.

DO IT!

Yes, please do! I’d love to hear about that one. I enjoyed this story, too!

Do it. Thanks to the exposé on “The Art of Driving in the Rain”, I’m way into this right now.

I second this, also awesome article I truly enjoyed it!

Please do.

I might need to devote an entire piece to that....

That was the article to beat on Jalop. Amazing work Alex. Great piece. This guy sounds like a very down to earth guy who really is passionate and good with what he does. That is amazing.

Update: Pagenaud took home the win, good on him. Meanwhile, my boy Rossi bagged a fifth.

No one man should have all that Power...

Even so, you forgot the dominance of Mercedes and Ferrari throughout the fifties as well. Some of us were lucky and had fathers and relatives in the sport who knew the drivers, the races and the cars. Some of. Us would actually read a book or two about it, and still do.

But really, Ferrari’s strategists should get a big black dick to the ass. Had Kimi boxed earlier, he would have undercut Lewis and held on to Ricciardo’s rear just as the latter was chopping down Rosberg’s time.

Nope. This has never happened before. The problem with young people is that they thing everything they experience is being experienced for the first time ever, you just don’t understand. (Please note, this is a rare case of me not criticizing Millenials. Every generation, including mine, goes through this. It’s called…

You forgot one more thing. For NBC viewers, Buxton is great a forcing hard interview questions and taking no prisoners, but James Allen was terrific today with detailed in-race strategy commentary. Way ahead of the guys in the booth.
