    IndyCar: 2021 Big Machine Music City Grand Prix

    I miss the Cleveland airport, it was probably too bumpy but the wide open corners allowed multiple lines through a corner.

    IndyCar: 2021 Big Machine Music City Grand Prix

    I don't like street courses and this race was a fiasco. They have a lot to figure out if they run it again. Herta was the class of the field until he pushed too hard. I'm trying to figure out how a car that should have been wrecked won the race.

    2021 Hungarian Grand Prix

    The rule book is written by team innovations. F1 teams also have the spirit of Smokey Yunick (and a bigger budget). I recall reading when they stopped refueling during the race, a team created a freezer around the fuel cell to pack more fuel in to keep the power up. I'm guessing F1 has to...

    Car Show

    I remember new model release dates, it was a big deal for car people in Sept. I also remember when you could order a car with the options you wanted, these days it is option package A or B.

    Car Show

    The Minnesota Street Rod Association puts on the Back to the Fifties car show at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds, it is one of the largest car shows (they got 10,000 cars this year). I take a bunch of pictures and thought I'd share a few.

    I still don't know how racing room works in F1.

    SRX RACING 2021

    It was pretty cool to see Bill and Chase racing for the lead. I recall Bobby & Davey Allison and Mario & Michael Andretti racing for wins (the fathers won both those races, the sons finished 2nd). I enjoyed the SRX races I've seen. I hope the series returns.

    Cup RACE thread --- Atlanta

    Chastain helping a teammate is no different than Penske and JGR teammates manipulating restarts on single groove tracks or other teams running together on super speedways.

    SRX RACE thread --- Slinger

    I haven't caught all the races but those I have watched have been fun. I get the impression that the drivers have a bet - last driver to wreck PT has to pick up the bar tab.

    Austrian Grand Prix Race thread

    After seeing Leclerc run off the track twice I wonder what racing room means in F1.

    SRX RACE thread --- IRP, aka Lucas Oil Speedway

    Lucus Speedway has the coolest pace car. I was entertained but I don't know why Helio was so upset.

    A lot of Spencer's stories were funny, I laughed out loud many times. It is interesting to hear about things behind the scenes.

    SRX RACE thread --- Knoxville

    I didn't know what SRX was so I thought I'd check it out. It looked like a fun race. I initially thought it was a seniors race until I realized a couple young drivers were in the field. Plus there were drivers from a variety of race series trying something new for them (except Tony). I...

    2021 Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix

    I was wondering why they didn't finish the race under caution.

    I'm happy for Helio. Great race.

    Cup "rainy" RACE thread --- COTA

    I noticed Bowyer made a suggestion to use the Titans on the straight. I don't know if they were listening but they did that shortly after that. It was a new type of situation but NASCAR showed they can adjust to the situation.

    There were some good laughs.

    While I find cheating stories from yesteryear entertaining (I do get a kick out of them), I'm glad NASCAR keeps up with finding innovations. When I hear a car is moved to the back of the field after tech I realize it is still going on and now I see stretching the rules differently from the past...

    IndyCar: 2021 GMR Grand Prix

    I enjoyed the race, it was pretty competitive. The young guns are making waves.

    Andy shared some of his innovations . I got a kick out of one - convincing the driver he has an advantage. He told a story about how he came up with an innovation when he closed the trunk of his car. He was closing the trunk on his Oldsmobile when he noticed something, the car had a feature...
