The garage story

A made-up backstory for a real DGM racer.

Miles Perhour wrote down every practice time. The Jaguar could tell you the gap between two runs but forgot to note what it had learned.

One day it added a second column: what went well. The list grew. Miles still watches the clock, but now knows a useful day can take more than one form.

“That run took longer, but I spotted where the wheel was rubbing. I'm writing that down too. Otherwise the notebook makes it look like I learned nothing.”
