Gene is smart in taking her money, I just hope he is smart enough to hire a better driver as the #1.

They are only a flat bottom, they run the front end lower so effectively the entire underside is a long, low diffuser. Similar to how Red Bull F1 a couple years ago ran their front end lower to get more Venturi effect to get even more gains from the diffuser.

You could also say F1 is low-tech because Short-Long Arm suspension, mid-engine, monocoque, stressed-engine vehicles have been the standard since 1966, that's almost 50 years.

We get it, you hate NASCAR. The beauty is no one is forcing you to watch it.

They create downforce through the underside, the spoiler acts as a Gurney flap in this situation to help feed the underside.

You can get a CoF over that without using any aerodynamic downforce at all, if your suspension geometry is designed to work the tires properly. We see it in FSAE all the time, many other race cars without downforce see a CoF of atleast 1.3 all the time.

But I posted a Short Course truck, not a Trophy Truck.

Except Lauda never slept with 33 British Airways stewardesses over the course of two weeks.

So going off "Sex = Winning", that's why James Hunt won so many races!

What do you mean by that?

Nah, to be honest road cars don't get me excited at all anymore, including Miata and Impreza WRX STi.

Airtime gives smiles, so does power sliding sideways at 60mph with 900hp under the right foot. To me that gives many, many, many smiles per gallon.

If you're going by fun, you're still wrong. Off-road trucks FTW.

So they don't cover contraceptives for women, ok, I understand that part of the ruling. Similarly, do they also not cover contraceptives for men? I ask in all honesty, because in order for a woman to become pregnant there is a requirement for a male seed to be injected (in SFW work terms), so a male contraceptive also…

Better yet, get rid of Wrigley entirely!

You only got one bottle? They must be cheap at the Glen, we usually give out at least a half-dozen to race winners.

Yeah, um, let's just say some drivers turn into children as soon as the Champagne touches their hands. Just ask my dry cleaner.......

BTCC at Croft tomorrow.

Drag Week is all about what car is the absolute fastest, it's not about side-by-side racing. That's why reaction time isn't factored in.

Correct. Add up the times for RT and ET, the other guy hit the finish beams 10.868 seconds after the lights went green, Jason hit the beams 10.870 seconds after the lights. Everything goes off the green light, that is why all drag racing guys want as close to a triple-zero reaction time as possible because it gives a…
