This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Lemons is an excellent racing league and a fun idea. They have managed to make racing somewhat affordable and kept it from being a “who has the biggest wallet” contest. The race wrap ups on their YouTube channel are also hilarious.
I highly recommend it if you are interested. On their user forums there are lots of already prepped cars for sale so you don’t even have to figure out all of the safety regulations right away. It’s also fun as a spectator so if there is one in your area go check it out for a couple hours, walk the pits, take part in the shenanigans.
Also for a laugh and a good read on the vibe check out their official policy on bribing the judges :
