Today marks 237 years since we fended off the British and earned independence for the United States of America. Today we all get to stuff ourselves until we are blue in the face with hot dogs, hamburgers, watermelon, chips, beer and whatever else we can cram in there between shots of Pepto Bismol.

Of course, with the Brits now offering up really sweet manufacturers, like Aston Martin->ke13, Caterham->ke1252, Lotus->ke49 and many more, we are cool with them. But today is about 'Merica and blowing stuff up, particularly huge explosives that we bought from some tent on the side of the road and that none of us are near qualified enough to set off. But who cares! Wes won our independence all those years ago and now it's time to celebrate it!

So, from all of us here at TopSpeed, have a safe and happy Independence Day and please try not to blow yourself or anyone else up this year. Enjoy!
