It's been a while, so what the hell:

I will take that to mean you like Carroll's books and you are looking forward to what is in this one. Is there any way you will not buy it?

I just bought this new book and I am enjoying it. Real talk from the mouths of Honda engine designers. I have only read the first few chapters, but when the guy from Honda who designed Senna's F1 engines says he under-estimated the complexities of CART and admits he had to go back to the drawing board, I am impressed.

"A Winning Adventure: Honda's Decade in Cart Racing"



I just paid $27 on amazon, but it seems they just raised the price to $39. Too bad.

 

Claude,

What? You don't know?

"Blort?"

Scott, who doesn't even have to think about it - I'm getting it.
