Yes and no. There are several things going here that Porsche does to invite that comparison, and several reasons why GM would make the comparison anyways. To start with, Porsche prides itself on making performance cars. They make it a point to develop 911s on tracks and make them track-capable machines, even if…

I'll probably get flamed for this, but i've grown to greatly respect GM's old 3800 V6. My dad had an old Bonneville, and that thing ran like a champ. Decently powerful, loads of torque, and it was unbelievably reliable. (The same can't be said about many other parts of that car… the fuel pump in particular.) And…

Nah. Ferrari Fire jokes are the low flaming fruit on actual Ferrari Fire post. Although, Elon Musk was spotted driving by the scene laughing. Not totally sure what kind of car he was in, but I'm pretty sure it was a Lambo Dude. Also this guy probably swerved for a pelican, and if he had been driving an E30 M3 this…

I totally read this as "Froggy Roads"

Driver with the dashcam seemed to be going mighty fast for conditions but it seems he was one of the few who was able to stop in time so I guess I can't fault him.

why don't we ask these dudes?

screw wonderbread. That hostess debacle cost my step dad his job while the CEO's got golden parachutes for gutting the company... Big ole middle finger to you!

Please stop calling them "NASCARs". You don't call F1 cars "F1s" or Indy Cars "Indys/Indies". They're stock cars. Or if you want to be specific, Cup Cars. The fact that "car" is part of the acronym doesn't change the fact that it is a sanctioning body, not a car type.

G-forces and angles also trigger them apparently.

So can railroad crossings.

This is pretty dope:

Nitro Helmets.

"...where James Garner found himself the unwitting participant in a stunt sequence gone wrong. Originally, Garner’s racer had been rigged with butane to catch fire as his car rounded the final lap. At first, the effect seemed to go off without a hitch. As Garner came into camera view around the last hairpin turn, the…

Ashley knows why.

This was Scary!

I am really looking forward to this one. I remember growing up in the 70's being obsessed with this rivalry (an ardent supporter of Team Mongoose) buying all of the crap these guys were slinging (Revell models, Hot Wheels, etc.). It'd be nice to relive that a little.

Was it the same one that they drove on Roadkill? It looks nearly similar.

If I recall the episode of Roadkill correctly it was 65 grand on the engine alone.
