COME ON HOUSTON. Stop acting like Florida. You’re not gonna get a Disney park. I know you miss Astroworld, but just stop.

Bought my first bike yesterday (15 FZ-07). You post this today.
Going to go try these speeds at lunch....
Or never. Just the video scares the shit out of me.

They normally film in front of a landmark in the city. In Houston it was one of the VERY ($$$$) nice high school football stadiums. I guess it facilitates the crowd, but also if you film at night you get to control the lighting. You don’t have to contend with the sun.

I’ve been to a recording, Live wouldn’t really work well. There’s course reset time, time to reset the camera crew, organize the participants, and they film from like 11pm to 4am.

Track days are arguably more safe than riding here in Houston.

Yes, this is what makes this funny. I guess growing up in a small town with wild life I’m not as concerned about the handling. Though I’m not a dumb enough drunk to do it myself I wouldn’t think twice about getting a dumb friend to do it.

A good prank would have been to put the alligator in the friends car, or tied it to the car

The good idea fairy in full effect.

Makes note of Farscythe’s name. Must never invite to racing series.

I’m an adult and I can buy what i want. You should see my man cave.

Depends on the model you get, the auto trans was trash, which is what I bought for the wife. The engine wasn’t designed for longevity, we had the r53? Ithink? Anyways we had a supercharged one. the harmonic ballancer pully was designed to fail at 80k, and it was NOT a cheap replacement. Also our transmission grenaded…

Its kinda like the F-Type and GT-R had a baby

“a ‘suped up’ red Mini Cooper with enhanced suspension”

*invests in upper strut bushings*
Seriously they’re the weak part of that car.

Hmm... A “G” naming scheme? How long until the rebrand into a “Q” scheme and confuse the hell out of everyone?

I am going to destroy it with vengeance. Hopefully if all goes right it will then catch on fire.

Yeah, I got my Coin. I got it a full year and a half after I was supposed to get it. Also bordering 2 and a half years after I ordered it. Best of all? It worked once. I tried it at nearly 20 different locations, it worked once. I looked stupid 19 times before I stopped using it. Now its in my wallet waiting for the…

I’ll grab it possibly when it comes out. Rules are rules. I don’t break my own.

They had my money until “kickstarter” after the Coin I vowed no more.

Dear Florida,
Consider this our official annexation application.
Sincerely,
Houston

Chevette, it had my vote before I even got to it on the page.
