...course, crew chiefs will still be tinkering like mad with suspensions, sway bars and other mechanical issues that can give them that small edge. In fact, they may be more necessary than ever. The new car has a redesigned fuel bladder that will carry four to five fewer gallons of gasoline, which will add to the number of pit stops and complicate the chess game of refueling and tire changes that crew chiefs in every race have to play...
...skull,” she said. Spina bifida, or the failure of spinal cord closure, is a more common result of NTDs than anencephaly, according to Suarez. “Among those who survive childhood [spina bifida], a majority are affected by hydrocephalus, paralysis, and lack of bowel and bladder control,” Missmer said.

This all leads, of course, to eventual ruin, loss of bladder control and hideous sores, (and then, predictably, weird masks and a steel nose to cover the sores). Midway through the movie, I was confused as to why I should care about any of this. The characters talk constantly, mostly in quasi-literary soliloquies that make no sense, but that are said...
