    If F1 collapses, I'm watching MotoGP full time.


    Actually, F1 is mostly as good as dead, so I will watch MotoGP full time anyways.

    I like how the caption for #18 is "Gressini Honda", trying to cover up the fact that it is simply a picture of a model's butt.

    Let's keep things in perspective here, people. At the 100th World Touring Car Championship race in Portugal on Sunday, the pace car was a Lada Priora. It's not just a pace car, it's also a penalty box!

    I really hate how everyone calls the X6 pointless. It's the perfect vehicle if you want a really expensive car, and prefer a hatchback, but really like to sit high like in an SUV, and you really hate carrying cargo, but also dodn't want room for any more than 4 people. Now who thinks it's pointless?

    It may be fast, but even in pace car form, it still can't outrun the fugliness. Or the pointlessness.

    It's obvious that it's going to do awesome wheelstands.

    @Clockwork: Actually... it kinda makes sense. Lots of motorcycle guys like to go fast, but at the same time need to haul their bike around. This can (I think?) do both tasks. I don't think the new M3 is quite so capable a tower as this will be.


    And with handling that's better than a truck, I know it's going to sell well. Maybe not to who I'm describing, but it's a BMW M, it's going to sell.

    And I thought about, and I finally get it. Nice play.

    @pauljones: ...I don't. I just couldn't think of a clever response. Can you explain to me the joke I just made?


    I started to think about it too literally, so all I can think of is percentage power shift to the rear wheels being enough to heft it up, while the front wheels still spin.

    Think about it. And think about Firestones.
