    Purchased a new Class C yesterday

    Interesting that you get to bring the "daily" home with you. Seems that is becoming uncommon from what i've seen for fleet drivers, unless truck parking has gotten that popular (several truck parking lots in the area, always assumed for OO's). My aunt and uncle bought one of those Mercedes...

    Force crash

    They didn't say where he went, only that it was a 3 hour AirMed ride. All of airMed's learjets are around 450-500 mph cruising, their propeller plane is 280 mph. So I figure a 3 hour ride puts him somewhere in the Dallas, StL, or Denver area. the part about the program having previous racers...

    Cup RACE thread --- Chicago Street

    The only improvement I can see is removing the grass median at the end of the backstretch where it necks from 3 lanes wide to hardly a lane wide. Take that grass median away and widen the corner on the inside edge. The right turn from Lake Shore to Roosevelt.

    Johali's Rate the Cup race --- Chicago

    Protesters climbed the fencing shortly after the command to start engines. NASCAr used the impending rain as a distraction for the delay to start.

    Johali's Rate the Cup race --- Chicago

    I'm gonna say a 2 for race management and a poorly chosen start time knowing the limitations. This race should have started closer to 2:00 local instead of 4:15 local. The protesters obviously didn't help things. They also could have made the controversial stage break be non-competition pit...

    Johali's Rate the Cup race --- Sonoma

    I agree with this. The pit crew and use of the horseshow before the speed limit line is somewhat more important here than track position itself.

    FoxDFW just jumped in for the 10:00 news without warning in the middle of Daniel's interview....

    Formula Electric or whatever it's called changes cars on their pit stops....because apparently that is easier than making the sidepods be batteries that are quickly changable.

    did they seriously...seriously just bend how the flags were flown and hold the yellow extra long before showing the red

    wow this is comical. A Larson caution. It works in their favor to do a red flag driver change though, as TV has alluded.

    probably lightning within the 20 mile range or whatever it is.

    Hmm...TV shows "larson's jet" but tracker shows it's at 5600 feet right now....wonder which is right

    Larson's plane is zigzagging around the storms. Accuweather still thinks it will be a miss on rain.

    I could see this happening. What I see on radar will be at best a 45 minute delay, give or take lightning clearances
