That’s my strategy as well.

Next door neighbor back in the ‘70's had a black one. It was a great drive-in movie and beach cruiser. Fit a half dozen kids or Boogie Boards in the trunk.

Have you heard the story of Bob Hoover pouring a tea?

We did a road trip up to the wine country in a diesel Rabbit truck. 450 pounds of passengers up front and 180 pounds of German Shepherds in crates in the shell on back. Gave the 18 wheelers a run for their money over the Grapevine. 50 mpg for the trip.

I’d have gone with Tesla driver occupant. More fitting with the Jalopnik boner for all things Musk.

I saw one fly down at El Toro back in the ‘70's. It made a couple passes then turned its nozzles toward the crowd and lit the burners. Climbed out of sight. It was glorious. I have some std 8 (no sound) film of it up in the attic somewhere.

Autotrader thinks it’s a thing:

ND.

Nice vid!

Ninja cat.

Juan Brown did a good vid on the incident.

For some reason the second pic won’t load full size. Trying a smaller copy.

Alan Johnson and John Thomas brought a couple 1974 Porsche RSR’s to a Porsche club event Ontario Motor Speedway. I got a ride with John for a session.

My only concern is why the hell is it not already gone.

Yeah, I know. Been insufferable around here ever since Gawker got sued into oblivion. NPOCP oops... NPOND is the last safe space for folks with thick skin.

Interesting. Makes sense.
