The "average" driver today desperately needs and would love self-driving cars since there too self absorbed or incompetent to control there vehicle anyway. As Jack said,not likely in our lifetime.  Btw , best use for any lawyer is to be used as an anchor for an artificial reef. ... View more

Decisions,decisions. Dodge continues to raise the bar and stretch the envelope of attainable performance. I love my 2017 Hellcat Challenger despite its mediocre build quality . All is forgiven when I can take to the track and run 10.86 @ 125.74 on street tires in 100% stock trim.  Just imagine what another 100 hp and drag radials can do. Despite its porky 4450# weight,and it feels it. Go Mopar!   ... View more

If they would just find a way to use real stock sheet metal with realistic ride heights and keep them safe at the same time. So tired of cars that get a slight crease in a fender and then are "undrivable". Every time they "rub" someone it cuts a tire because clearances are so tight. They're going to restrict engines so there's parity anyway, so a common crate engine isn't much different than what they have now. And it would save a ton of money. The unfortunate side effect is a lot of engine and fan specialists out of work. They can already laser measure bodies now so having honest stock contours could be  readily enforced.  If the cars ran 25 mph slower and were more recognizable and competitive I believe fans would return to the races as well as encouraging  greater manufacturer participation.( FCa,Honda,VW,Mercedes?)  Just my 200 cents as a 45 plus year fan and former short track crewman. ...

As Brandon said,like many articles here"they are fishing for comments". And the community comes through. Love this part of Hagerty, the passion ,knowledge, memories of the participants. Some of my favorites: Burt's Trans Am, the Milner coupe and Falfa 55, the Cobra, Daytona, and Camaro from Gumball. Bullit's Mustang and Charger and the Audi,etc. from Ronin for the awesome chase scenes. Remembering the driver's eye of the Ferrari hammering through Paris still gives me chills. ... View more

Couldn't agree more. Short tracks and(egad!) road courses consistently have the most exciting and unpredictable racing. ... View more
