I understand why they do it. And there is a kit for almost any car. I just find it lazy and unimaginative. Short cuts aren’t always the best route and I prefer imagination, originality, and craftsmanship over easy and cheap.

Who LS swaps a Toyota? This guy wanted a Camaro but owned a Toyota? Plenty of JDM turbo’s he could have stuck in there I would have been happy with. And then there’s the tranny.

I see 1988 Honda $4k and think crack pipe. Then I think 28 years old! Crap maybe it’s a true classic.

I would not buy this for a dollar.

This was 2009. I see your point though.

I’m not certain Courtney Mason would agree. With Sharpies even.

You are skipping Indianapolis, which is understandable, but I’m wondering who’s in charge of the break down pool? I was thinking that if there was one for how many and for distance to each from the start point could make it interesting.

I was hoping for battery swaps in season 1. It would be more like refueling in traditional racing and those fans would find it more acceptable.

I wouldn’t have swerved.

I’ve wondered why this hasn’t happened already for a few years. If it’s driving distance from me I will go. If it’s on TV I will watch. If they swap cars instead of batteries (or better the batteries don’t last a race) I’ll stop watching like I did Formula E.

That moment you realize you are a 1995 Alfa Romeo 164Q.

B side is called Death by Takata loud death metal with those nasty vocals that sound like someone choking on the mic.

Mr Collins thank you for not suggesting we ban cars to solve this problem. I will continue to read your post as a result, unlike a certain other author.

Making one into a autocross weapon with some IMSA style box flares would be a fun project.

Sure it looks fun. I’d not only like to drive it but own it.

Wasn’t me but same driving style. I left work that way every day. The Goodyear Eagle GT +4's that came on the car were very sofe compound and were easy to smoke. I need new tire every 18 months even with rotation. Going through mountains you could hear the tires hit their grip limit before they broke loose. I had the…

A festival where many people will be intoxicated is not the same as everyday life.

Maybe they don’t want to hang out with Mrs. Ban All Cars.

I was already corrected, and looked it up. Apparently the Buick only came with the 3.8. I must have done the math wrong when I was a kid, or having aged misremembered. That said only 110hp out of a 3.8 is sad. If I had the car again I’d have a lot of project work ahead of me.

If it was an Opel Manta ID say nice price.
