I LIVE within a few kilometres of where this happened.
A couple of things to consider:
• This is a low socio-economic area with racial and other factors playing a part in problems that affect the community.

So, no mention of the 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona or 1970 Plymouth Superbird (the Dodge was the first to break 200mph for NASCAR), Bill Elliot’s 1987 Coors Ford Thunderbird (which set the all time speed record of 212.809mph during qualifying at Talladega), or Buddy Baker’s 1978 Gray Ghost (still the record holder for…

Calder Park Thunderdome! Here in Melbourne Australia. 1.8km (1.119mi) quad oval that was a shrunken copy of Charlotte.

Pour one out for Nazareth Speedway (PA), closest home track to the Andretti’s and one of the few in the Northeast. I had the privilege to be an SCCA worker (gates and infield) for the very last race there (IRL before the merger). Was great to see Michael and Mario leaving after the event. I’m not sure I’m sad as it… Read more

There are worse roads, but the one that makes me the most furious is I-376/US30/22, aka Fort Pitt tunnel and bridge.

So you’ve never been to Pittsburgh, because it’s Pittsburgh, but you’re heading there because a sportsball team is playing someone black-and-yellow and you’re trying to impress your bang-buddy. You even… Read more

Yes, as many of you have pointed out: The headline initially said “$2 a day” when it should have said “$2 an hour.” That was my mistake, and I’ve fixed it. Thank you to the comment section for alerting us to this error! Read more
