    Now we dance. You can dance if you want to, if we don't nobody will. And you can act real rude and totally removed, and I can act like an imbecile.

    That's how you roll - Gran Turismo style.
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    Every track is not the same.
    I think it's pretty impressive that over a distance of 400 miles, they are within car lengths of each other.
