Anyone else seen these? I don't know why but I get really into these races even though there's no skill or free will involved.
Race starts at 6:20-ish (link should jump there). Exciting last lap!

I was just watching that. And part of race 3.  A lap or two less would keep me more engaged (blame the ADD) but still entertaining.  |

We've been watching them for years. Zip is fascinated by them.

You watch enough marble races and eventually youtube recommends this. Much shorter races (ahem...Stella):

There's a surprising amount of work put into these, even beyond the actual set up. Editing, graphics packages, sound, etc...
The guys who did the diecast stuff, also do a "dirt" rally event, it's great.

No clue. But for a foodie like you, Oaxaca is a mecca. You ever make it up this way we can eat ourselves into a coma. Well, I can at least; I suspect your eating talents are insuperable. As for travel, I'm all traveled out these days. Although I do hope to sneak into a DIMBY one day again in the distant COVID-free future. How are the dogs these day? |
