That's a term he uses right from the beginning, no explanation given. The mystery of what a sports racer was is one of the things he used to build together a community. The speed at which his site grew in that week is remarkable, and the code words he used was a big part of it. If anything, it's the opposite of sardonic. It's childish (but in a good way).

My time as part of The Show community is one of my fondest internet memories. It allowed me to do a kind of creative collaboration that I haven't been able to do since. And it was great to watch.
- mattmaroon 17y agoI guess I found it sardonic because the intended audience is most definitely not sportsracers. It's sort of like the high school star linebacker calling the 100lb nerd "big guy".
- unalone 17y agoIt's more whimsical than sardonic. It's too absurd to be taken seriously.
