@JantheMan: 30% income taxes? So what? That's what an assistant manager at McDonald's would pay in the United states. Read more

@Feds: I think your last sentence was stolen directly from Steve Jobs! But, as the man himself said, "Great artists steal." Read more

@Ash78: Countless attacks from US enemies? Do you mean we could expect invasions from Venezuela and Iran if Palin happens to ascend to the Presidency? :) Read more

@Mad_Science: I'll take that bet :) Any time somebody lists "Ken Block" as the best driver they're beaten, chances are they're not exactly Vic Elford material. Read more

@c0de: The Viper is more fun to drive than the Exige. To paraphrase the old song - everything the Exige can do, the Viper can do better. They are both effectively mid-engined cars. Read more

Unless the camera car is the first Gumballer in the line, I'm willing to bet that trailer fellow had some help starting the oscillation. Read more
