He’s had quite a few car names in his F1 career, he’s having fun with it for sure.

+1 serving-maid.

Ricciardo must have learned a thing or two from Vettel, he had great success with Kate’s Dirty Sister.

The restraint didn’t fail, it just had no way of holding on to that part of the supercharger after the case ruptured. The style they run has a plate attach to the top of the case and under the injector hat, similar to this Deist unit.

Pretty sure I made a follow-up comment saying the video didn’t show up for me earlier, and after watching the video said my previous comment was wrong:

Did you miss my later comment that the video didn’t load the first time I read this and missed that part, then after watching the video noted I was wrong? Here’s a link to the comment posted an hour and a half before yours:

My computer didn’t show a video when I made my comment, I gave them too much credit as well, they definitely mangled that roof.

I’m more impressed he didn’t hit the roof with the boom than pick up the ATM, those CAT units have a really tall boom and it can be nerve wracking with low overhangs.

Something I learned from this was that the current Chevy SS has a really dumb hindrance in place that forces you to shift from first to fourth if you’re not punching it hard enough

From older pictures his car looked awesome, especially over the jumps (lower half of this picture).

If you like vintage Baja, especially the PPI #001 Toyota seen in the leading image, you should check out the rebuild thread Rory Ward of Racer’s Only has on Race-Dezert, it’s awesome and well worth the couple hours spent reading it.

The Mercedes W154-M163 thinks otherwise.

Greger Huttu comes to mind, a maser class in iRacing who was impressive in his first outing in real cars. TG magazine has a write-up here:

That place is a landmark for those traveling from Chicago to St. Louis, spending a minute or so driving along the highway and looking over at whatever was on their lot.

You’ve obviously never driven past it on I-55 going south towards St. Louis, there was plenty of old, awesome iron on their property.

Non-issue, future planes will have more aggressive airfoils to account for the lower Reynolds number.

Sharing stories from race tracks and racing series I’ve worked with over the years, always a good time.

a little car called a TrophyLite, to a slightly-less little car called a BajaLite

Well you’ve apparently driven one before, so go for it?

Hah, I have to laugh at their “5,900 jobs created” figure. At the 1,000 acre facility I worked at the place was kept going by a group of around 100 people during non-race dates, that includes operations, administration, groundskeeping, everyone pulling a full-time paycheck.
