Part of me welcomes self-driving cars. Get all the unpredictable idiots who can't be bothered to put any effort into driving and paying attention out of the equation.

Start coming for my license or my ability to drive on public roads? Over my dead body.

Given my advancing age, I suspect that they will soon come for my license and autonomous cars will be the only cars that I will be permitted to drive. But in that case, what to do about that "back seat driver"?

Pirelli World Challenge just uploaded all the 2016 races to their YouTube channel. Watched the touring car race from Lime Rock this AM. Many more races to watch. Elivan in the winners circle at plenty of the races as he won the championship in his class.

Tesla Model S race car to race in the FIA's electric GT series. I wonder if they'll allow it to run in PWC

I thought I had renounced this sort of thing!

Another 510 on my radar.
