The new 2013 SRT Vipers made their competition debut at Mid-Ohio yesterday and while they don't yet have the outright speed they need to run with the Corvettes, Ferraris, BMWs and Porsches, they did accomplish something the late Jaguar XK-Rs almost never did. They both finished, with the #91 car running 10th and the #93 in 12th. The team still has plenty of work to do, but finishing is always a good way to start. http://www.alms.com/results

Hysterical, but I still want to know, why the hell is #dressage in the #Olympics since it's clearly not really a sport and and certainly doesn't involve any actual athleticism. More importantly, why the hell is Mitt Romney or anyone else getting tax breaks to fund dressage!
