Tired of all the whining? (Smoke I’m looking at you)

Croc sized water works issued fourth by over-paid NASCAR drivers? (Baby Busch you to)

Rollbar pad tossers and yellow flag moaners? (Robbie, insert a litany of names here ____ you’re all on the list to)

Well take heart, VW has the answer in the form of the Golf GTI 53+1.

No NASCAR drivers needed!

AutoBlog explains why:

The video says the car was not developed to promote future autonomous VWs (Stanford’s got that covered), but instead as a way to test the company’s hardware without a human driver. Eliminating a driver insures every test will be performed exactly as the one before and give consistent results each time.

There you have it, a 21st century solution to whiny, crybaby race car drivers. And frankly it will be much easier to program for left-turns only vice the autocross course the GTI is utilizing.

Take note all you whiners… in the future, far in the future, when caught in the “actions detrimental to NASCAR” trap you will go from wheeling a CORN to not wheeling anything and relegated to the third-turn cheap seats watching a Jetson’s-like robot take the checkered flag in your stead.
