    Yeah, it's hard to argue with that kind of logic.


    The key is talking loudly enough to drown out all the voices inside their heads

    Jimmie Johnson suggests changing the famous Talladega tri-oval, which is like asking Fenway to tear down the Green Monster. Ryan Newman says "Dega" is an accident waiting to happen.


    Carl Edwards is still on the fence.

    Having watched the crash about 20 times, my only thought is... what the hell kind of racing allows a guy to blatantly veer diagonally across the track to block a faster car from passing?


    That's just fucking lame. If you tried that pussy-ass shit in Formula 1... you'd have to be disciplined by a Nazi Leather Bitch.

    @Botswana Meat Commission FC:


    Exactly why F1 has become about as exciting as a 4th of July parade. About the only time the leader in a F1 race gets passed is when he stops for gas.


    Actually (IMHO of course) what has become a pandemic in racing is that the first 5 cars in clean air are gone and from 6th on back in the dirty air they are fighting for every inch they can get. Doesn't matter if it is F1 or NASCAR. Tells me they need to take the aerodynamic advantage away from being in front if we want to see racing and not just a parade.

    Not that I'm an F1 apologist or anything, but this season and last have been pretty exciting actually.

    They should just cover the track with a concrete dome.


    The exhaust fumes should take care of the rest.

    You can't take your Chevy Malibu up to 160 on the interstate, so Dale Earnhardt Jr. does it for you.


    It was Dale Earnhardt Jr.? But I blamed that group of Latino kids that just moved in next door!


    Oh man, they're going to think I'm a racist...

    I say, no limiter and keep the Talladega track the way it is. I mean at least it is partly interesting compared to 3 hours of driving in ovals.

    The car that went into the stands at Le Mans was a Mercedes Benz; the French still aren't sure how it got over the 6-inch retaining wall.
