2>4: MotoGP, Jerez Race Recap

Lorenzo MotoGP 2013 Jerez

Lorenzo May 5, 2013

MotoGP is a series in disarray.  Limited factory involvement from the big companies, and a handful of riders whose skills put them on another level, has made MotoGP a bit stale.   That is quite an accomplishment when you consider MotoGP is a series that has tiny European men in leather suits riding million dollar motorcycles at over 200mph.  Hit the jump to find out our take on the Lorenzo/Marquez “incident” and our hopes for the future of MotoGP.

Beyond the Checkered Flag: SRT Viper’s new web series

SRT is pushing the Viper pretty hard. With a distinct absence from NASCAR SRT has to make sure it’s presence in racing is still known an dwhat better way to do it then a web series on the new Viper ALMS car. We will just about watch anything with racing so SRT can count us in as regular viewers and I imagine many of you will want to check it out too.

Featuring bad acting, corny lines, some fairly stereotypical scenes of 1950s life on the surface The Hot Rod Gang is not a great movie. I’d compare it to the Fast and the Furious. It has all the same characteristics. It’s a been goofy, and you’ll laugh at some of it, but then there are the cars.
