The original Thompson Road Course, in Thompson CT, is a good one for this list. Though a new road course opened last year, it still pales in comparison to the original (and highly dangerous) course that was open during the 50’s and 60’s. I was able to walk the remnants of that course, which were slowly being reclaimed

Only front diff working, apparently

It really angers me that Vipers go to dealerships that could essentially care less if they sold one. They just mark it up 30% and stick it in the middle of their showroom. “Look! The same company that makes the Dodge Caliber you’re trying desperately to trade in on a Dart (and/or burn for the insurance money), also

If up upon impact, the visor is going to flex or tear off long before it becomes a determining factor in forces experienced during a crash.

If it’s anything like my SYNC, I’ll have to pull the damn fuse every time it tries to play a certain song on my ipod and crashes

I bought a 2012 Mustang a few weeks after they hit lots. I’m not exactly your target audience. (keyboard warriors with no cash)

I’ve driven one. It’s a great car, and very nice on the inside. But a bland exterior and the issue that you just mentioned, that it was treated like an obligation to sell X number so they could forget about them, doomed it before it hit the showroom floor. The worst part is, they’ll use this botched, ham-fisted

Let’s see....besides the fact that tires were never engineered to ride on the sidewall where there is a vastly reduced wall thickness and ability to sustain load? Well, you asked...

Also see:

Yep, makes it easy to get parts for! And 351W. Was a plain Jane 2bbl with auto trans. Now has a T5 5 speed, aluminum heads, roller rockers

No, 69. The biggest tell is that the hood wraps down in the center of the grille on a ‘70

Gravel fronts, General Grabber AT2 rears

She was painted 3 weeks before this event. The black is actually plastidip laid over 3M scotchgard clear wrap. I didn’t suffer a single scratch!

If I can control the horrible axle hop next event, I can even get over 3000RPM on the course! That was her first outing, and she’s been tweaked a bit since.

Slightly creepy to see my Facebook pictures out in the wild ;).

A Hero 3 in 1080 60fps. And 60’s era suspension makes for the cushiest (if not very competitive) ride you’ll ever have at rallycross.

:O I made Jalopnik?! Very cool, thanks for the love! Here’s a few pictures, too.

My horn button shorted out in the column! As if I needed more attention!

The older cougars were never stellar lookers either, but I did what I could with mine. Setting helps a lot.

My very favorite part is how the cop solidly used the kid’s face to open both sets of doors and get him outside.
