A Decade of Growth for Transit-Accessible Neighborhoods in America

While the number of regions with good transit is on the rise, access is still concentrated in a handful of places. About 75 percent of Americans within a half-mile of a transit station live in just five cities. Chart: Federal Transit Administration

Just Keep It On The Road (Atlanta)

Week Five of the Grand Prix Legends Lotus 49 series headed to bumpy Road Atlanta.� On Saturday, 15 sim-racers lined up for a 2462 SOF race of 18 laps with Mike Dam leading the way after qualifying with a 1:20.485, almost .3s faster than Gary Teall in second.� Row Two was occupied by Jason Shadd and Bill Fraser, while Peter LeBlanc and James Bunnell filled the third row of the two-by-two grid.� The start was uneventful for most on the grid, but LeBlanc bogged down and immediately lost position to Bunnell, while Shadd was a bit overzealous into Turn One.� The resulting light contact with Dam hindered Shadd’s braking and sent him off the track in tandem with Duncan Coppedge. After just a couple of laps of sim racing the [...]

Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee Season 4 Trailer reveals more classics

Filed under: , , , ,

Comedians in cars getting coffee promo

Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee is one of our favorite online video series thanks to its ability to combine funny people and some fantastic classic and quirky cars. Thankfully, the wait for the next season to begin is quite short with its return on June 19. We've already seen the preview teaser for the new episodes, and Jerry Seinfeld and friends have just released an extended trailer revealing even more of the classic - or in some cases, just odd - metal to be showcased.

Like the teaser, we get glimpses of comedians Jon Stewart, George Wallace, Aziz Ansari, Robert Klein and Sarah Jessica Parker taking a drive for a cup of java. But the best part is that it also shows even more of the cars featured this time around. In addition to a Buick Riviera and a Jaguar Mark II, Parker is in a Ford LTD station wagon and Stewart gets both an AMC Gremlin (pictured above) and an AMX. If the glimpse here is correct, though, Ansari's vehicle might be the weirdest yet.

Based the quality of the past three seasons, we are definitely eagerly anticipating the start of the fourth. Scroll down to watch the new trailer.

Get to Know: Jake Cameron

As always it is great fun to introduce new faces to the iRacing.com community, some of whom you probably know better than you think. One such person is Englishman Jake Cameron who commentates on the iRacing.com World Championship Grand Prix Series broadcasts alongside Wil Vincent. I personally have known Jake for quite some time now as a teammate and can tell you he is great fun. Jake is a 17 year old avid UK Stockcar racing fan from Woodbridge, Suffolk. Now some questions to get to know one of iRacing.com?s newest commentary voices a bit better. Matt: How did you first get into sim racing? Jake: I started both the rFactor and Live For Speed simulators at exactly the same time, rFactor gave me the ability to drive a UK [...]

Watch: Woman Abandons Doomed Lada in the Nick of Time

From the “Stuff We Found on the Internet” file comes this Eastern Europe?sourced dashcam clip in which a Lada 2107 is partially pancaked by some heavy machinery that rolled backward after failing to make it up a mild grade. Unsurprisingly, the Lada doesn’t take the impact in anything close to stride, which makes the female […]
