Wasn’t Helium banned to help conserve the amount of Helium left on the planet? Don’t remember where I heard it from, F1fanatic.co.uk maybe?

Technology is amazing in broadcasting these days, as long as whatever cameras are used are calibrated relative to each other they can overlay any information they want from any camera over what’s shown on another one. Pretty amazing stuff.

Alonso knows how Kimi feels:

Thermal imaging camera.

Beaver doesn’t crew for Tom anymore, IIRC he’s working at a factory of some kind and bartends in Loda.

Mr. Reese,

That has to be the worst rational for how to make a cross-country speed record not be about speed.

Guinness is throwing out records for anything these days, it seems like.

According to this Gizmodo article, that’s not a drone.

I am going to try to watch it live tomorrow morning. Just need to watch Lydden Hill today to catch up first, and be sure to wake up before 7am tomorrow, waking up will be the harder part.

It’s a downhill chicane....

A lot of cars back then had the driver’s feet ahead of the front wheel centerline, it wasn’t until the 1980s that it became mandatory for the driver’s feet to be behind the front axle centerline.

I dunno, this car had an Automatic in it and it was a beast.

Now playing

Charade Circuit in Clermont-Ferrand, France. Eight miles of amazing circuit, when it was on the F1 calendar in the 60s and 70s it was “described as an even twistier and faster version of the Nurburgring.”

Safety >>>>>>>> Lap Records, every single time, every single day of the existence of the Earth.

Meanwhile, in Soviet Russia.....

I really don’t know. No modern production street car has gotten me excited in a long time, “super”/”hyper”cars included. The last car that got me wanting to have a street car was seeing the completed Honda S600 by Matt Brown, I’m finding I’d rather build a car that is 90% non-original than own anything that’s OEM.

Bicycles. Nothing digital about them. Except for those electronic shifters by Shimano, they just don’t feel right.

So the way to win COTD is parody a song with lyrics that relate to whatever the article is about?
