Missed this one, but how did Clarkson’s review of the Corvette C4 on Old Top Gear not make the list?

Hey Alanis, just giving you a heads up for next week’s Roundup (if there is one, with Christmas next week and all), on the 26th starting at 9am EST / 8am CST Fox Sports 1 will begin a 14-hour marathon of Monster Jam shows.

Surely Gawker can scrape together a bit of money to put Stef in the car so she can write an article about the race and event, right?

And yesterday he blamed Mercedes for it being crap, then tomorrow he’ll blame Renault for building “crap” engines for it being crap, then the next day he’ll blame the drivers for not trying hard enough as the reason it’s crap, then the next day he’ll say everything is alright, just needs a rules tweak, and on and on…

An old race track grandstand and pit building. (note: not my picture)

Wrong form of alcohol, but you knew that already.

Indeed, they’ve done famous liveries for the last few years, including Brabham, Williams, John Player Special, and Martini.

I’m partial to Speedway myself, no brakes, air-cooled 500cc single-cylinder engines running 100% Methanol, 4 riders riding 4 laps of chaos.

The Vanderbilt Cup, it was the first major Cup race held in America. After three years racing on dirt tracks around Nassau County, the 1908 edition featured the first ever roadway designed strictly for automobile use, which would host a further three editions. The Cup then moved to Savannah, Georgia, Milwaukee,…

If people want to have their mind blown, the kid’s only 18.

Sorry for the grainy quality, only video I could find on YouTube.

These videos are a geek-out thing for me, it’s really cool to see a venue change from one event to something completely different. Here’s a couple more with dirt moving.

It’s okay though, Lucas sells replacement smoke kits.

For a road car? I wouldn’t change anything, most all modern road cars give performance that is more than adequate for the safe, defensive driving needed on the public roadways.

Don’t know if you were watching the Australian comp over the weekend, Edith Cowan University won Acceleration with a 3.81, and this is what their car looks like.

The last day of Formula SAE Australasia is set to go at 5pm EST, with TWO Endurance sessions (one Morning, one Afternoon), here’s both live event streams that go live when each session starts.

Can’t forget the Terps Bi-plane, because if one full-size rear wing is good, why not run a second full-size rear wing that also feeds the diffuser?

So, you’d make a DeltaWing?

The Ferrari 126 C2 that drove at Long Beach in 1982. They exploited a loophole that mandated the maximum width of the wings but didn’t say a team couldn’t run more than one rear wing. This created the awkward situation where the car was allowed to start the race, but ten after the race was disqualified for an Illegal…
