    Quite nice.

    I miss BTCC on TV. You've gotta love cars which have lights, signals, wipers, doors, etcetera, which are racing.

    I always enjoyed the first lap technique of drivers trying to fold or knock the mirrors off competitor's cars. That takes a delicate touch, if you plan on not being penalized.

    On the basis of this post alone, I have decided that the next time you're in SoCal, Mr. Smith, I'll be buying you a beer.

    @Six Flags Over Tomsk: Don't make idle threats. I like beer, and I'm going to be in town for the LA show...

    (Regardless, thanks. Hell of a gesture.)

    Super keen and rad. More! More! More! I recommend muting the German Touring Car vid and sync the sound to Mouse on Mars - Kanu instead. Equally Germanic and much more tolerable. Can someone take care of that? Thanks.

    @mercury_marine: Yeah, the song is a bit much. Just got the translation of the chorus from a friend of mine, though: "Verdammnt lange her" means "damned long ago." Neat.

    Wait, that engine didn't get any penalties?! Pro-tip, all E30s had a metal intake manifold. The big plastic manifold should have been a clue that something was not kosher.

    @LTDScott: The team had completely obsessive documentation for that engine, which they bought from some dude on Craigslist for a ridiculously cheap price. Plus they got Judge Ed, one of the original LeMons judges, and he's a little nicer than me and Judge Jonny.

    Hmmm. Instead of "I will not spin" it should have been, "I will not roll."
