Am Javelin. ARSE-Sumedly Mark Donohue's, on Display at the IMS Museum in 2016. (the Tomaso

Although perhaps it's a STIR-RETCH', the
IndyCar race on Michigan's Belle Isle always makes me think of Detroit Iron,
Flashing Back to them salad Days 'O SCCA Pro Racing Trans Am Thunder on the
Bumpy Streets of Detroit. Therefore what better way to honour the "Motor
City" then with a story 'bout a NASTY Javelin on Hellcat Steroids, Eh?
While I've previously regaled Y'all 'bout el
Capitano's', nee Roger Penske's Collection having been on Display at the IMS
Museum a few years ago in;
Whilst I've also
serenaded Y'all with some of my past Belle Isle recollections previously in;
And lastly, I find it very interesting that
Haas F1 "Simulator Jockey" and current F2 Driver Santino Ferrucci has
inked a Dealio' with Dale Coyne Racing to run this weekend's two riveting Detroit
Duels on Belle Isle, making me wonder if he's not expecting to progress any
further up the Formula 1 Food Chain?
Especially since Romain Grosjean seems to be
wilting under thou pressure of his Haas F1 team-mate Kevin Bacon' Magnussen
clearly outperforming him this season. As I'm wondering if someone named
Charles Leclerc will soon occupy his seat?
