'Kung Fu Vettel'

Sure, it's entirely cheesy and unbelievable, but I still enjoyed watching it. If only to see the World Champion Red Bull Infiniti F1 driver Sebastian Vettel pretend to be a Kung Fu master.

F1 Comes to Des Moines

I love my city. Des Moines to me has come a long way from where it used to be. I can remember back just around a decade ago when the Science Center was still by the Art Center, MLK was only a north-south street, and the East Village was a place to avoid if at all possible. A lot has changed since then.

Saturday, the citizens of Des Moines got another chance to experience progress when the Red Bull Racing RB5-02 Formula 1 car visited our fine city. Formula 1, for those of you that are unaware, is one of the world’s greatest and most popular sports—watched in almost every country in the world by around half a billion people. It is the pinnacle of automotive racing, with billions of dollars spent on the sport each year.

In honor of Willis Infiniti’s grand opening and to celebrate Formula 1 returning to the United States this year (Austin in November), we welcomed Red Bull Racing’s RB5-02 car into our showroom. I don’t think I have ever been as excited to see something as I was on Saturday. 

The F1 car arrives, transported in a clear trailer. Awesome.

Long Time No See!

Well, drivers, it's been a while since my last post. I'm working on a couple of new articles, so in the meantime, here's an entertaining video of an awesome accidental lane change in Russia. Courtesy of Jalopnik. Enjoy.
