Today let's turn to another area of science- physics. Our friends over at Winding Road Racing want to give one of our lucky readers this cool t-shirt illustrating the physics of racing- understeer, oversteer, horsepower and torque.

MotorsportReg.com captures a lot of information when you register for an event. For attendees, it allows you to only have to enter that information once and then register for as many events as you like. For organizers, it helps you run a smooth event with all of your attendee data stored in one place.

As you set your clocks back and check those smoke alarm batteries, take a minute to review and update your MotorsportReg information.
