    Not April Fools, no really seriously.

    Hey folks!

    This is not a joke.

    Between the show's hiatus and getting Fallout 4 for Christmas, I have neglected my writing to a near-criminal level over the past few months. For that, I am tremendously sorry to all my readers.

    Still alive

    No, not a Portal post...

    I just wanted to let you folks know, I'm still kicking. I find less and less time to write these days, and have a hard time getting the creative juices flowing when I do get a chance.

    What Stormy would post if the Internet still existed

    For those who are unaware of what the Australian V8 Supercar race series is, it's what NASCAR could have been had they not been blinded by good-ol'-boys and only turning left.

    Hello, old enemy, we meet again

    I know I promised a chapter of After the Storm this weekend. I'm getting a mild block right now in that storyline. Can I use the excuse that I was writing with Starscribe all week for this week's chapter of The Eternal Lonely Day? Don't mean to throw you under the bus, Star. But hey, with the engine running, it's warm down here. Just don't breathe in the exhaust.

What Stormy would post if the Internet still existed · 10:39pm Oct 6th, 2015

For those who are unaware of what the Australian V8 Supercar race series is, it's what NASCAR could have been had they not been blinded by good-ol'-boys and only turning left.

This weekend, Aussies race on a mountain course in a 1000 kilometer (600+ mile) race. I've gone to Australia specifically to see that race before. And yes they encounter kangaroos on the track!

Hey, there are still a few of those kicking around Canada you know :p
Electric Cars for everycolony!

Yep, if you want some crazy torque, those electric motors really go.

3447992 Spec Tesla racing series. Robin v Stormy v Alex v all comers. Hwy 401 from the A-20 junction to Detroit.

3448085 .... This. Needs. To happen. *checks his resources* There's a Telsa store somewhat in the vicinity of the renewable energy tech manufacturer Robin's gonna visit... One in Montreal too...

No way! That's the stupidest idea you had since you got Robin drunk!
Stay out of this Jade! It's in the name of inter-colony relationships! Like the Iron Pony Competition!
I won't mind a race actually... sounds like a good idea...
See? Robin's all for it!
This is so gonna end badly...

If I had the money, that would be my car of choice.

As for that race, my sister is not only a car racing nut, she's also one of the track officials at the Bathurst 1000!

3448571 Outstanding! As I said, I was at the race in 2010 when FC had his minor 'off' at the bottom of Conrod. I was over in the stands at turn 1, and I swear the air pressure all over the mountain dropped from everyone gasping!

I will be doing my best to find a stream for this weekend, hopefully I get the next chapter of Highway done before then so I can relax and watch!

Oh yes. OH YES!
This has to be one of the craziest and best ideas our mini-fandom has spawned so far.
I'm still of the opinion that Stormy has the wrong cutie mark. Just saying. So many other uses for that lightning bolt if there has to be one... And you forgot Max. Pretty sure he'd join, no? Or would that be truck racing?
Kate can do the live coverage.

Jade, all your arguments are invalid. This is so far beyond beyond stupid it's come right around the other side and makes perfect sense. It's even in the name of the original: Bathurst! *no, I'm not sorry*

On edit: okay, actually just watched the video right now. :pinkiegasp: Want.
