About

Happy 2010 profile! Same writer, same rusty Dodge pick-up, new year.

A general all round racing fan, if it's got an engine and wheels I'll probably watch it and probably write about it, whether anyone reads it or not.

Of course, like most people who like a sport and have more than, say, a third grade education I dream of becoming a sports writer, unfortunately they're only dreams and I have an alarm clock.

I'm the one behind the bizarre-ness of the Motorsport Power Rankings (why stop at just comparing apples and oranges?) and all other nonsense and goodness in equal measure.

Articles of mine have appeared on FOXSports, CBS, occasionally featured on Radio Le Mans, Jayski.com as well as many others. I can be found on Twitter (can't everybody) as The_Lap_Times

Ask a question and you will answered, write an article and you will be read.
