The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

David Prowse was the green cross man but, because of his high-pitched whine, he was voiced by James Earl Jones.....I think.

Under-steer is when the front of the car hits the wall, and over-steer is when the rear of the car hits the wall.
Power is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how much of the wall you take with you.
