Good to see your new robot. Good luck to you guys this year. I'll try to think pink as much as possible.

And I think the term "speed holes" has been around for much longer than the Simpsons. I remember seeing an old indy car (like really old) in the Indianapolis Motor Speedway museum that had tons of holes drilled in it to make it faster, not because of aerodynamics (which would actually have the opposite effect, I think) but for weight. The lighter the car, the less weight the engine has to accelerate, hence, "speed holes".
