I bought a ‘65 Mustang, so I guess I’m part of the statistic. I have had a bunch of 25+ year old Mazdas though, so. Nobody puts those in Hemmings...
I suck at soccer. I can’t throw down at that kind of level.
I don’t fix plotters. Too much work.
I’m not blaming the engineers, I’m blaming the system. I’m a EE/CE myself, it’s never the engineer’s fault. :D
PC LOAD LETTER? WTF IS PC LOAD LETTER?
I’ll assume sarcasm there. No, he’s not my friend, he’s a friend of my uncles’. I get free tickets for races from Simpson Racing, if you really care.
My point was that he is a funny guy, in person, as I noted. I’ll be curious how his personality plays out on the show as he’s generally very friendly/humble as well. …
The issue that they suffer from is too much value engineering and a failure to look at the big picture. They’re nickel and dime’ing on components of the system and ending up with a combination that, while functional, ends up more complex than needed vs. a more integrated solution. When each realm of engineering…
Antron is a friend of the family and a hell of a nice guy. He’s a talented drag racer (he was highly competitive in Pro Stock Motorcycle as well as winning championships in Top Fuel Dragster). He used to eat dinner at the track with us back when he raced for Troy Vincent (his cousin) on a Pro Stock Motorcycle many…
And this is as opposed to what? What similar car is being driven daily by the masses? This is a relatively high end, high capability sports car.
If you look at its peers, in price at least, I don’t think they’re much different. Sports cars in the 50+ thousand dollar range are second cars for people with disposable…
I owned an ‘87 Alliance GTA. It was gutless, but it handled pretty damned fantastic and the turning circle was hilariously tiny, you could do a u-turn on a 2 lane road at like 15 mph. It broke, often. I put in a brake master cylinder, wheel bearings and a clutch in <12 months of ownership. It wasn’t a “bad” car…
I was just about to type PV=nRT. Thank you for proving at least one more person was awake in thermal dynamics class.
I don’t have the crossover. I have a Focus ST, my wife has an Escape Titanium. It’s basically the same car, just a little bigger with more ride height. She’s more comfortable getting in and out of it (in fairness my car has the Recaros and is lowered), there is more room for the kids stuff, but it doesn’t get much…
It’s a neat car, but for my money I don’t see why I wouldn’t just get a BMW, or, more likely, the ATS-V I keep eyeing.
I guess I just don’t see any compelling reason to purchase it. It’s pretty, but outside from car-guy cred, any positives are outweighed by uncertainties and I think I’m probably in the target market…
I had a pretty heavily modified Grand Prix GTP many years ago (ported blower, big throttle body, cam, intercooler, headers, built transmission, etc. Something like 350 wheel HP). Every single time I hit the throttle in that car I worried about murdering my expensive, built transmission. It also torque steered like…
Negative. This is a V8 car.
I built a house about a year ago because I couldn’t find one with a garage that met my wants.
I was beside them, but my exhaust exited the front fender, so it was pointed right at them.
Fun story about some coal roller bros and me.
The road course/short oval kit looks pretty good but the speedway kit looks amazing! Wow, I like that, very nice. I want to see it in some cool livery now!
I wish the Sync in my ‘13 ST was upgradable to this. :(
