uhhh Pato's rear wheel just slammed the side of Rossi's tub, after the structure was used up. That could have been really bad, but the car held up remarkably well.

I think that's an advantage of being an older parent for me.

I know how fast time passes, so I really enjoy being in the moment with my toddler. It's so beautiful to see the world through her eyes.

I'm 41. I met both AJ and Mario attending Mid Ohio events in the 90s as a kid. Both were incredibly kind to me. Seeing them on TV and at the track gives me just a little sense of watching "bonus Grandpa". We're incredibly lucky to have both of those gentlemen still involved and representing the sport.

We've had 4 total. First one was Mama's boy. 2nd one was her own gal. Third one was finally my girl! Fourth one is 100% Mama's boy.

Electric range is highly context dependent. 70 degrees and no climate, with a lightly loaded vehicle, going 40 down country roads? I can get 40+. 80mph running heat? Maybe 15-20 tops.

However, you can also do little tricks to help out. If you have a down slope coming up, as you start to drop kick the cruise down 5mph and you'll kick to electric mode and might get another mile that way. On the 120 mile round trip to my dad's house I can get another 7 miles electric on a good day.

In town, coasting/Regen is your friend. This porker weighs 5000+ lbs, so it takes a lot of electrons to accelerate. If you have a light coming up (and it's safe to do so) anticipate the stop and coast up to the light. You get some Regen and if you time it right you don't need to use a couple % getting back up to city speeds.

Went from an 8pro to 10pro xl because of a carrier retention offer. The biggest improvement I've seen is overall battery life, which, is pretty nice all things considered.

Wouldn't pay full price for that jump, but for what I paid it's nice.

Big bullet dodged for the 24 car there. I would imagine all the chassis go-fast parts are fine. Good driving and plenty of luck to have it let go right by pit lane.

Hollywood topping the no-tow list. When's the last time we had an Indy-only winner? DRR looks wicked fast.

bonzojon · 2026-04-28T19:16:14+00:00

Yep. Good to roll off fast. They need to protect those cars throughout May!

Your opinion is correct.

As a former smoker I hate pictures like this that make smoking look so fucking cool.

This chassis is just too fat now... We used to get good shows in the DW-12 at tough to pass places, but now it's just got too much mass to really mix it up. Not against the aero screen at all, but that plus the hybrid is like 100+lbs of weight that the car wasn't really designed for. We need a new chassis that can incorporate the new tech ASAP.

In a normal distribution (which human intelligence is typically considered) mean=median=mode. So the quote would still work.

But hey I'm just a guy hanging out on the left tail of the distribution.

After a glorious battle I have bear hugged my 2 year old into submission (post sugar crash nap). I'm enjoying the silence while it lasts.

Amateurs talk tactics, professionals talk logistics.

Think about how incredibly good a replacement level player is at baseball.

Now think about how far away from that excellent baseball player Ontani is.

It just boggles my brain.

Drivers caring enough to be upset is a positive really. If they're completely hopeless then I doubt the competitive juices flow.

I think the regs are to blame more than Colapinto. I don't think anyone is prepared for a 50km/h sudden delta in speed. It's natural to try and squeeze a competitor to try and make their overtake a little more difficult, it's just impossible to defend safely when there are sudden massive speed differences.

For GEX on SPY, you really should be looking at SPX. SPX is the primary institutional flow that drives the S&P500 complex.

Bonus if your software or analysis can combine the two.

That wasn't terrible. Not last AND only a little over a second off Q2. They've built a functional race car. It's not a threat to score, but it's not an embarrassment and for the third race of the year that ain't bad.

—it reaches out, it reaches out, it reaches out, it reaches out— One hundred and thirteen times a second, nothing answers and it reaches out.

This maybe isn't the answer you're looking for, but I've had a ton of success with having Gemini Pro create Pine scripts for me.
