go karting
mrsjulieburnett asked:


My husband has a shifter kart and no matter what he does he gets blisters on the heels of his hands. He has tried mole skin and first aid tape but it either slips off or rips out his hair when he takes it off. He has even tried adjusting the steering wheel but he still gets them. Is there something out there that we can buy or another technique he can try to avoid these blisters?

corvetteaus asked:


When is the next Red Bull air races? Or any other air race on TV. ( Incase you were wondering why this question was in general auto racing, it was the only subject that came close to it.)

ferrari racing
Fender asked:


We have all seen the show 2 fast 2 furious, and other alike, so my question is, what kind of street racing truly exists? I know you got the punk kids in LA cruising around in the POS ricers, but is there really something like 2 fast 2 furious, or people in Lamborghini and Ferrari’s racing around in different area of the USA?

P.D. Tu gato ha muerto asked:


This year I’m more excited about Indy 500; however, Ferrari could race its last Grand Prix at Monte Carlo in history, so I really don’t know which race I’m going to watch. How can I choose?

formula 1
hugie asked:


Is there any skill involved, or is it just the car you drive. Have you ever actually watched a whole race.

Formula 1 is more of a sport then NASCAR, and there is a bit of skill in the turns and stuff, but they are still both just based on the car you drive.
Thanks for the nice answers, I think it involves a bit more skill now. Do you consider the drivers athletes.

motor racing
Chris D asked:


i feel that professional auto racing ,including nascar ,should be bbanned due the inherent risks involved in the sport. each year a handful of drivers are killed in the us and around the world. this can be prevented. also motor racing encourages young people to drive faser than they ordinarily would.
