Details for those of us without social media?

I only wish Macho Man Randy Savage was still alive to give Hogan E36 M3 about this. DIG IT.

You know with Stef's reporting on motoraports including a nice mix of amateur and even crapcan coverage (and participation) and professional series coverage that focuses on series that that hardcore gearhead appreciates, devoting as much attention to IMSA and WEC as she does to open wheel and things going counter clockwise, maybe if jalopnik vaporizes a home near and dear to our hearts could be found.

Just so happens I was about to link to this article on precisely why you should give a berkeley:

The end result of this could be even more vapid gossip rags instead of less, as "sudden financial ruin" is added to the risks of doing real investigative journalism (if it embarrasses or inconveniences anyone with money).
