I'm with Lance Stroll on this one. #F1 is far too technically complex and the 2026 cars are still too long and heavy. Now get off my lawn while I go listen to 'Bring Back V10s' podcast.

It's been 30 years, but I am still grouchy about Tony George and the #IndyCar split. Those Champ Cars were beasts.

Ooof. I had no idea RadarScope supported custom imported color tables. Requires a PRO1 subscription ($10/year) for the feature. Conveniently, RadarScope uses GR2 Analyst's color palette files. Finally RadarScope and AWIPS colors are the same. #meteorology #win
