Yep, my dad had one with a 5 speed, locking diff, and those ridiculously awesome optional 3 spoke wheels.

Where I grew up if you’re going off deep into the wilderness for camping, hiking, mountain biking, etc. it’s pretty standard to have a gun in your backpack (granted you have the appropriate permits). Not because you want to go off willy nilly shooting the wildlife but just knowing you’ve got protection should a worse…

Have you ever been to a Waffle House late at night? I’ve been to a couple and I don’t blame them at all for having a panic button.

Having spent a fair amount of time there, I’m sure they’re like everything else in Rome. It “works” but someone should really take a look at it.

That’s not true in VA. Anything over 80mph is an automatic misdemeanor regardless of whether it’s 20mph over or not. You’re correct it’s up to the officer’s discretion but they can most definitely arrest for over 80mph. My friend was pulled for around 90mph and had the choice of jail time or house arrest.

Stopped me on I-81 for 83 once.

I’m in Roanoke most of the time but luckily 220 doesn’t discriminate, it’s terrible in both directions!

Yeah I don’t play around on 220..even if you don’t see any troopers you still have to keep an eye out at all times for Billy Bob leisurely pulling out of his driveway into 60mph traffic.

Did the same thing in college, 83 in a 70 while overtaking a couple semitrucks in right lane. Luckily 2 friends had already dealt with the exact same thing and told me to get a lawyer asap. Got it switched to “defective equipment” and had drivers ed for a day.

Supposedly they’re trying to bump it to 85mph, it was at least on the table last I read.

Hell, in VA the 17mph over part would probably have sent her to jail.

I actually agree with you on the B8 S4 thing. I drove one for a couple days off and on while my buddy was doing some stuff to his house. Granted, his had been modified from top to bottom by Stasis but still, awesome car. I know we like to dismiss paddle shifters but that thing had the sweetest feeling pull of any…

In true Caps fashion, this thing will go 7 games (7 games against the Columbus Blue Jackets for fucks sake) and then Pittsburgh will beat the brakes off them.

Invasion of Privacy? Isn’t that a Ratt album?

6-7 years ago I had a white one with bronze Wedsports and a few other nice touches..even the little JDM pink “i” badge.

Is that Lola?

When I was a kid my father was in love these and the Mercedes Silver Arrows. He collected some pretty amazing stuff like old books in German that go over the specifications and blueprints, a rare old autobiography by one of the guys who drove them (Carracciola maybe..), vintage race posters, but the coolest things he…

That’s the real Toyota truck I wish I could find. Unfortunately, I can’t remember the last time I saw one without awful rust.

I’m like one of maybe 3 people in the entire United States that bought it when it came out and I can confirm that it’s a blast when you find a full room of people. Just be prepared to never get 1st place...ever. I got to the point where I was exceptionally good at that game and a podium finish was always the best I…

Have you ever been to Japan? The whole damn country dresses exceedingly well.
