Wow. Stunningly, Autoblog has been giving a big platform to its inner snark lately. The Knight Rider web logs come to mind as well, though that's probably because it's a "safe" target, i.e., one that doesn't provide press cars. It's nice to see a bit of flavor in between all the coverage of this week's special edition Mustang.
Wonderful quote; it's a shame, though, that a Chrysler product wasn't involved, to add extra punch to the malapropism.
It was fun watching that Vette get driven around the ring the way it woudl be fun to watch someone else having sex. I sure hope we don't get reduced to that 20-30 years from now.
I have added a new thing to my "things to do before I die list" - Get driven around the 'Ring by Jim Mero. Holy crap, he is on the ragged edge the whole way around. He deserves a medal for sheer lack of self preservation.
