It was great to be back at Suzuka for the first time in seven years. As I start my journey home, I’d have to say the last three weeks were pretty alright!

I knew Don Champweb Sklenka was a herb before the DW12/IR18 grew an aeroscreen
Nobody has posted a 2004 Mazda ad for the US market which I vividly remember: it was about the 787B and it specifically included an inference to the one myth that everyone knows about the 787B. From the same period as the one posted below 😂 youtu.be/ruw1MKIou_8

発表 ANNOUNCEMENT! I’m coming back to do color commentary for RACER Network/RACER+’s North American #SUPERGT broadcast! I had a lot of fun doing this last time during the Fuji 3 Hours, Suzuka will surely be as good if not better. I’ll do my best!
Super GT returns this weekend at Suzuka
RACER dot com will continue and I still am part of it but man oh man am I sad about the original magazine being closed down after 34 years of publication. 😔
dudes will just sit around naming old racing drivers/bike riders
That beer can after the burger at Culver’s is gonna hit my hand like Mjolnir after that race

Vic Mignogna is still trying to be in the anime biz when his real calling is scammer/fraudster televangelist, that’s funny

I’m happy everyone got to experience what it’d have been like if the 2016 Atlanta Falcons were more than just moral winners
some say this has been the most farcical decision in sports. something so unfair to the competition and a complete mockery of the established rules. a stain on the league. yet, others say adding Jeff Gordon as the 13th driver of the 2013 nascar chase for the sprint cup was the right thing to do
10 years ago I lamented that Ryo Hirakawa’s Toyota backing meant that his door to F1 was shut. Things have changed obviously, but for all the chatter about him getting a full-time race seat I see so few scenarios where it doesn’t go really bad for a driver who, let’s not forget, turns 33 in March.
25 years with Chip Ganassi Racing and Scott Dixon is leaving. A literal generation. It's Tom Brady going to the Bucs, only racing. The true end of an era. #IndyCar
