davebo posted:Also what is wrong with ESPN that they make us stream the races live on the website and not show them on tv until a day later? Also will anyone here be at the Baltimore race? That is the tv package ALMS negotiated with ESPN this year. It makes a lot of sense actually - the people that want to watch the whole thing live will (getting direct viewership stats in the process), and the casual fan who goes "oh hey some cool cars" while flipping through channels the next day get a nicely edited highlights package that can play up the excitement a bit. I love endurance racing, but it's more of a background noise kind of thing than something I actively watch most of the time. Listen for the announcers to get excited, then pay attention.

I wish my wife gave a poo poo about cars other than as a conveyance from A to B and a money sink.

NASCAR does a lot of things wrong, but by god they have 'Murica displays down solid.

Some sweet Porsches outside where I had lunch today. Too bad the 356 was missing the sweet-rear end hubcaps, otherwise they are mint.

Bogatyr posted:Are those rear facing seats "illegal" now or just fallen out of favor? Sure, its a bad place to be in a collision but it makes those seats accessible and comfortable. Maybe a little car sick prone. I'm gonna go with car sick prone, my daughter is still in a rear-facing seat and while she likes it when we "go wheee" and take empty parking lot corners hard, she wanted me to stop doing donuts in the daycare parking lot (megachurch, so acres of empty space) before dropoff the one snow that we got that wasn't plowed up before we got there.

Also note the roll up garage door behind him tall enough to accommodate the pipes. At least, I want to believe.

My Christmas present from my wife is pretty awesome. Someone mentioned in this or another thread about their wallet made out of MB-Tex, the 80’s Mercedes vinyl. I’ve been wanting a new wallet for a while so why not try something different? https://www.couchguitarstraps.com/catalog/product/view/id/1686/s/brown-80-s-mercedes-wallet-made-of-repurposed-mb-vinyl/

I was literally behind the finish line camera on the third floor of the pagoda for that one, it was incredible. Not often you have crowd energy like that.
