I’m on board, but why is it grifting? It’s capitalism at it’s most basic. They saw a niche, they created a business out of it, they provide a service, and it’s apparently thriving. Do I like it? Eh, doesn’t really effect me, so I don’t really care. Frankly, fuck them 1 percenters. You want to drop $1,000 on dinner,…

Bathhurst 1000 is amazing, but doesn’t draw much in terms of international drivers. It’s a lot of Aussie blokes. Maybe it should stick to F1, and if so, I’d nominate Spa, where bravery is still much rewarded. That said, there is always Scott McLaughlin.... We just need to get him into LeMans.

Well, I guess I’m with you there. So, withdrawn I guess. The ultimate irony is that the never-ending apparently unskippable ad for video content on Jalopnik playing in the right-hand corner of my screen as I type this is something about the F&F movies with many clips of Walker. So, yeah, they might condone his…

It’s an article about a car. Owned by a dude famous for “driving” cars in bad movies. And famous for owning a racing team. And famous for dying in a famous car. I’m not sure why this article feels so out of place for you on an automotive blog. Just because it speaks about how he was also famous for having a preference…

Let’s just say they were going 200mph, for some easy math. At 200 miles an hour that plane would cover 400 feet in about a second and a quarter. Now yes, that would envision straight down at 200mph and it all gets ridiculously more complicated based on angle of attack, etc., and a bunch of math I don’t want to do, but…

Oh, I see, we apparently married the same person. How completely unreasonable of them!

Never start a car project after 4:00 PM.

Respect to the way it was shot and produced. That’s fascinating and at least makes me interested (despite being a huge F1 fan, F1 (and most motorsport) movies are never very good). But hearing that it’s coming out in Imax might make it worth the price of admission... 

Price-wise, this is knocking on the door of the M2. That’s absurd. And I know which one I’d have...

Yeah, it wasn’t far off from what we were paying for the milk we bought in the store (I forget, some semi-local organic brand). Place is called Meadow Brook Farms Dairy, in Clarksville, NY. Southwest of Albany. They are as old school as it gets - no website or anything. But they’ve been delivering milk in the area…

The split grill is fine. It helps a little I think.

Yeah, it’s wild. The 40 demographic is truly puzzling to me. I guess living vicariously through the younger folk. But Swift has been writing the same silly little break up songs for a long, long time. 

So. Yeah. A lot of language I’m not sure I agree with. But. That’s it. I don’t care if it’s Elon, Tate, Trump, or Swift. Celebrity worship or idolization is weird. And always a sign of a problem. They get diarrhea like the rest of us.

Big, big fan of the Carnival. 

There is some sort of visceral response to the idea of a minivan. I don’t know if it’s external or internally caused, but it’s there. But spend any amount of time actually living with one and you’ll quickly realize that whatever the source, the source is wrong. I don’t know a single person who regretted buying a…

Lol. That fucking song.

Indeed...

Someone just needs to figure out how to get minivan doors on an SUV so we can get all this nonsense over with. Fine, give me a lifted minivan. But after having a Pacifica rental car for a week last summer I will never change my tune that the best feature of a minivan is that giant sliding door. Putting my kid in her…

I was a teenager in the mid/late 90s, I remember. Taylor is very different than N’Sync, 98 degrees, Brittany, Christina Aguilera, etc. In 2000, N’Sync’s biggest tour (No Strings Attached) netted $70 million in 82 shows. They aren’t even anywhere near the top 10 numbers for biggest tours in that decade (Rolling Stones,…

Always a fan of Qantas, one of the better I’ve flown on. Not as good as Singapore Airlines, but, miles better than most. Not surprised they thought out of the box on this one. And, of course, got an A380's worth of good publicity in it.
