I thought this was relevant, until I looked it up on YouTube and realized it was staged. Still mildly humorous though...

I suppose we should add this one that happened in the support race for this year’s Bathurst 12h. Vintage cars, plus moderate improvements, plus what appears to be DOT-spec tires, equals great racing.

I also recently discovered IPRA because of a team’s first gen RX-7 facebook page.

Many tens of thousands of Honda VFR, ST , and Hawk owners would politely disagree...

I kinda want to put one of these in a Miata:

Why didn’t the car tell me there was a bright yellow barrier ahead!

It had to be done.

Every racing series that started with minimal restrictions got more as time went on, because that’s what works. “No restrictions” is a neat ideal but a functionally unrealistic pipe dream that ultimately leads to teams pissing away exponentially increasing amounts of money on smaller and smaller diminishing returns,…

That is one of the icon1000 bikes. They were pretty badass. Here is a link to their site:

Race cars can generally run without much in the way of air filtration because they typically run in relatively controlled environments for relatively short periods of time. They also have the luxury of cleaning and rebuilding engines regularly. Realistically speaking unless you’re driving on dirt roads and stuff you…

The buyer is paying a sales tax, not income tax. The seller isn’t paying income tax (usually) because they are selling it for less than they paid. If you make a profit on the sale, it’s income, and is taxable.

They technically aren’t buying and selling though, since they aren’t reselling to the public, rather the OEM is buying the cars back. In most states you can personally own as many cars as you want, as long as they are registered to you. So these guys are buying the cars, registering them and paying taxes, then…

Man, you can’t let this go. You’re still wrong on eye placement. My kid was watching it the other day and thought of your post. Emotions come from the eyes. They need to be the central part of the face. You can’t feel the same immediate reaction to the car’s emotion if the eyes are in the lights. The windshield is a…

The new Avon trailriders are pretty amazing - good balance between light dual sporting and the road

Ok so here is the deal. There are two kinds of movies that have cars that are living in them. 1. There are also people in the movies that use the cars and 2. There are not people that use the cars. The vehicles are the people.

In the first option you need a windscreen so that the people inside can see out. In the…

I would buy this if it also included an electrically-coupled stick that lets me shift through five hundred different gears like Vin Diesel does.

I thought that was turbos.
