Yeah... theres the problem you don’t pull the engine. You drop it.

Also depends on the track, some tracks are a lot more demanding on your brakes than others. If you’ve got a couple long straights where you see 120+ you can put a lot more heat into them before a corner.

What kind of dick asks that question... everyone knows the Porsche is inferior to a 6 cylinder Mustang. I mean I can buy like 18 used ones for the price of this krauteschitt.

The same can be said for a lot of city dwellers here in the states too. But give those same people a giant plot of land in the middle of nowhere and these kinds of toys start sounding like a good idea.

Your comment regarding being out of reach for the aftermarket is correct but for the wrong reason entirely.

Great story and all on Ramsey’s behalf but he’s full of shit (or grossly misinformed).

I agree for the most part however I do not begrudge a celebrity putting hard work and effort into public office and aspiring for presidency. Reagan (not a fan but he earned the presidency), Jesse Ventura, Fred Thomson and Al Franken (damn you Al for being a creep, you were a great senator) are all examples of…

Unclear if that was sarcastic however that would likely have been a NiCad or NiMh battery and would run for a fraction of the time a modern LiPo or other Lithium variant would run.

I can with 100% certainty tell you this is the Corvette, I’ve done podcasts with multiple suppliers on the project this has been a done deal for years now.

I know Corbin, he gives all the fucks (for lack of better terminology). He just about cringed every time “zero fucks given” was ever mentioned when we were doing the podcast.

That’s making a big assumption on the price of gas here in California. It’s a rare occasion that gas is that cheap.

Genesis/Megadrive version didn’t ship until a year after the SNES release and it wasn’t plain ol’ “Street Fighter 2" as you noted it was Champion Edition.

I believe I have the distinguished privilege of being the only person to take delivery of a Fiesta in “the vault” at Galpin Premiere.

All I ask is that you leave some tread on the tires for when I inevitably ask Kahn to send the car my way.

I had a long discussion with company that has a huge financial interest in the Ford turbo hatchback market just last week. The indication from Ford thus far is that it is very unlikely we’ll be getting another Fiesta ST in the US.

The irony in your lack of understanding the definition of irony got a good laugh out of me.

A Z06 is a nice street car that can handle occassional track days but when you’re building a car that will see lots of track time braking, cooling, engine, transmission and suspension work will be done anyway.

If you’re building a track car all of that stock running gear (besides transmission) is out the window anyway, hence my mention of oiling upgrades. Wheels, suspension, exhaust none of that stock equipment is worth much on a track car that will have the shit kicked out of it weekly.

The FRC is significantly less expensive, can often be found south of $15k USD. Also if you’re building a track car it makes more sense to start with an FRC than a Z06 if you’re going to do engine work. It would be a waste to buy an LS6 and then rebuild it with better heads, intake and oiling as doing the same to an…

That was for 17s, I mentioned to Doug on the podcast if he bumped up to an 18 or a 19 he’d have way more options.
