I was thinking Vegas sounded lame with no support races and overpriced...well, everything, but then they go out and do something COMPLETELY BRILLIANT.

Hear, hear. Don’t let that frickin’ herb know a moment’s peace for what he’s done (and is doing) to this site network.

Thanks for keeping it alive, Silas. Splinter’s staff deserved so much better, too.

Horrifying. Simply horrifying.

Seriously.

Big “Y U RUNE KLASSIK” energy to this slideshow, yeesh.

Hell yeah. A lot of these kick ass, TBH.

Alternately, domination awaits if you decide to do the Lemons Rally in the Allante.

either way, *chef’s kiss*

Heh, I have the legality planks from a ‘13? Williams? sitting in the dining room. F1 plank > shiplap.

Austin has protected view corridors for the state capitol building, too. I didn’t even realize it was a thing until a friend mentioned it, but I guess so. He was annoyed that we might ditch it, but I was like, why? It’s a neat historic building architecturally, but it’s already lost in the sea of taller buildings and… Read more

Keep the 912, Allante and TourX.

I’m still no fan of a segregated series—I’d have much rather seen that funding go towards putting women in the main feeder series. That said, I had to admit that the F1 Academy races were a lot of fun to watch. I’m glad to see them having a positive impact among fans, too.

I can’t beat this suggestion. I really, really hate that blob Taurus.

I mean, to be fair, I go out of the way to check out all the regional stuff we don’t get when I’m out-of-state, too. I can’t blame ya. If you’re a tourist, go do tourist things.

I honestly think the whole concept’s jumped the shark. I’m not here to take selfies and film Tik Toks about the “Busey’s.” I’m here to poop, get snacks, fuel up and leave. Most of the time that’s better to do at a non-tourist-trap station, or like, a separate lunch stop combined with fueling up at a regular station. Read more

My bar is high because I’m actually from TX, but it’s edible. Not outstanding, but not bad. Solidly in line with okay chain BBQ.

Ugh, I hated that Olds logo. HATED. They should’ve gone back to a more recongizable rocket instead of whatever that goofy swoosh was. It (and Oldsmobile’s overall direction towards the end, TBH) just felt so downmarket for the brand whose higher end used to be “Cadillac for people unsure about being seen in a…
