@mama_gforce I 100% agree. Yes, do a chime/sound...but use a different one

Hello, Moon. It’s great to be back.

Here’s a taste of what the Artemis II astronauts photographed during their flight around the Moon. Check out more photos from the mission: https://t.co/rzM1P0QbOl

@ConorDaly22 @bobpockrass @IndyCarOnFOX I for one love the playful sparring among competitors in IndyCar. They can be brutal rivals on track, but off the track they have some good fun with each other.

@DirtFishRally I hate to say it, but it looks better than their WRC and Rally2 cars 👍

[Mike Shaw @oregonwings]

@christopherlion @markmartin @tonydizinno @townsendbell @NASCAR_Trucks @NASCARONFOX I still remember his "Oopsie" in the GRC car at the series launch in Long Beach. 😂 Great guy and commentator, even if he did break a few things.

@DirtFishRally Arguably, with less aero/down force, the new 2027 era WRC cars should be as spectacular if not more so. They might not be as fast in the fast corners, but they'll likely be more sideways. That's my two cents

[Mike Shaw @oregonwings]

@JimBeaver15 That's what I was doing mostly was the longer conversations. Reviewing an event with a competitor can be included, but definitely prefer a conversation vs just listing out a bunch of stats. Much more enjoyable. Thanks for the saying you'd like me back. Means a lot coming from you

@jackbenyon Been following you since @absoluterally and have always enjoyed your journalistic perspective and expertise. You bring an energy and excitement that I think helped expand the stories of IndyCar to a larger global audience. Especially enjoyed your podcasts with @JRHildebrand

@marshallpruett @Indy_Aimee I'm all for 2nd chances, like "The Dinger" eventually got, albeit not with a return to IndyCar. That said, I also wonder if RP had Cindric in a holding pattern until the "Independent Officiating Board" was finalized so there'd be less push back on his return.

@jackbenyon @oscarmayer @IMS @wearetherace @racemediaawards It was pure marketing genius!! Hope the commentators and teams have a fresh new set of cringy jokes for 2026! Some were so laughably bad, but we still laughed!!

[Mike Shaw @oregonwings]

@DirtFishRally Who's your top pick as a replacement at @subarums_usa ? I do like @connermartell21, but I'd love to see @seanjrally in that car too.

[Mike Shaw @oregonwings]

@DirtFishRally Only one....@samalbertrally 's Ferrari engined Subaru!

[Mike Shaw @oregonwings]

@DirtFishRally Could be argued both ways. An extremely healthy championship with more drivers winning and bigger consequences for not scoring points. Or what she's implying with not enough top level competition and a good driver only shows up periodically. Reminds me of the specialists era.

[Mike Shaw @oregonwings]

@DirtFishRally No. Typically at most events the Open 2WD and Limited 2WD are the more competitive classes. And in regional the NA4WD is usually the one with competitors trading stage wins. Nice to see L4WD get a little closer, but it's still not, on average, the closest competition.

@DirtFishRally Canary Islands was both beautiful and challenging, even if Kallie did Kallie things.

[Mike Shaw @oregonwings]

@DirtFishRally Having turned 50 this past year, I can relate to being a bit creaky and stiff!

[Mike Shaw @oregonwings]

@DirtFishRally "slowly sideways"..I'm assuming that's in air quotes! 😆

[Mike Shaw @oregonwings]

@DirtFishRally Castrol. Definitely prefer the Castrol.

[Mike Shaw @oregonwings]

@DirtFishRally This is also why 100AW runs 2 weeks later than it used to back in 2015.
