Could be wrong, but I thought the hair was a dead give away.

At this point, between the hair color and the fact that he person that produced the name of the "rapist" for Frank to give to Velcoro was the gentleman with said hair color, seems like the pieces are all there.

I agree that whomever actually killed Caspere at this point is not terribly important (just like in season 1, the individual case becomes much less important than the overall story happening behind the scenes). As said, there are two individual stories going on here crime wise. The involvement of Caspere is more or less coincidence that makes it look like they are more connected than they really.

As for people's disappointment with this season, the overall feeling I get is that "its because its not season 1". I loved Season 1, but have been able to enjoy this one on its own as a completely different story. If this show wasn't called "True Detective" I think the reaction to it would be more positive perhaps. Season 1 had its flaws as well, but the strength of the two leads really helped to overcome a lot of it.

I was nineteen once and got lost, and kind of stayed there. I'm happy for him that he has found his way back and hope he can look back and know he made the right decision. Seems he has an uncle who is a positive influence. Hats off to him too.

Go Dahman! Go Hokies!

Every time someone appears in the frame, I spend time trying to remember who it is and what his story is so I can process the scene unfolding.

Yeah, I see a lot of people saying this but I don't get it. There really aren't that many characters to keep track of and only 4 had any kind of back story. One of them now killed.

The Writer/director want everyone at this point to be guessing who Caspere's murderer is and who is going to survive the final episode.

I think your first sentence is more true than this. Who killed Caspere is less important to me as to the motivation and how it ties together all the pieces, or doesn't.

What the audience is trying to guess is, Who is Velcoro's son's real biological father.

This is a racing event unlike any other. I love all motorsports, but the difference between this and something like NASCAR is the level of interaction and freedom you are given. The paddock and pits are open and you are free to walk around and up to the different teams trailers and garages. They have no problem with you asking questions, taking pictures, or just striking up a conversation. And there are exotic sports cars just EVERYWHERE.

This was the view of the False Starting Grid from our campsite. We were that close.

I would like to point out that I have been lifting while he was lifting at Windsor Hills. Never have I felt so weak... First time I saw him lifting there, I walked in and he was benching 335 for reps

Can't make it but for anyone on the fence about it, VIR is a spectacular racing facility. I grew up not far from it and race there in the SCCA frequently. Do yourself a favor and get a breakfast biscuit from the snack bar between turns 3 and 4. You can also enjoy a bologna burger, not quite as epic as those purchased at South Boston Speedway but worth a go if you've never had one.
