    It looks like it has some potential, as long as they get a strong community of knowledgable people making contributions. Nice post.

    Why do they name turns at a track? Any significance (i.e. so and so crashed here so it's Gilles corner?) ?
    It's the Least I Could Do

    This motorcycle is simply too goddamn fast to ride at speed in any kind of normal road traffic unless you're ready to go straight down the centerline with your nuts on fire and a silent scream in your throat.

    Sure, lots of that... like the Wall of Champions in Montreal.. named because of so many champions crashing on that turn.. most recognized onesamon HillMichael SchumacherJaques VilleneuveOther than that you've got honor/tribute paid to riders/drivers, like the Schumacher S, formerly the Audi S, on the Nurburgring.
