The car was just angry. A dozen laps and no crowd to plow into, something bad is going to happen.

...and you deserved to be sued for making a dumb comment.

There are likely plastic and rubber components under the car that are involved in that parking break and that fireball doubtlessly melted them in short order. Look at the back of the car.

Or the giant ball of fire affected something in the parking brake cable, as well.

Imagine this as an entire racing series. Would this work for you?

Off with this “driver protection” equipment malarkey. I came to see gladiators! I CAME TO SEE BLOOD!

I hope not. I like air.

Man... disowning your deceased daughter for being a horrible driver... that’s harsh.

Hahaha. Oh man. That’s brutal.

Once they called and asked about my vehicle. I told them that it was totaled and I lost my daughter in the accident.

Not to mention the lack of a cage. Their “roll bar” came out looking like a pretzel.

I mentioned this in a facebook post the other night when this cropped up.

This could have ended with at least one of these guys in a bag.

Porsche/Audi/VAG all have a channel that outputs torque values. You would have to be using PIWIS/VAGCOM/Durametric, and not generic OBD software.

Can I go to pebble beach alone and still have a great time that is worth the experience, an experience that I can only reminisce about with myself in the future?

If it had a thin lip like I’m used to seeing I would agree, but that one has some heft in there. Don’t under-estimate what an interference fit can do.

From what I can see in the pictures (second picture, he says the first was after assembly)... he didn’t completely undo the stake in the stake nut. I can see witness marks where it looks like he tried and he claims he did, but it doesn’t look to me like it’s completely clear of the threads.

its all good. we are splitting hairs on most of this stuff anyway.

Riding across Hollywood, theres a road with space for bicyclists that backups big time because of traffic. You can ride your bike pretty easily faster than the cars can travel. Well Porsche dude did not like that fact. He kept trying to squeeze me into parked cars, and outright block me. I just swerved behind and…

Ive passed motorcycles on my mountain bike too. Coming into Glacier Point in Yosemite Valley i passed 4 guys on Harleys. A bike weighs around 25 lbs and is unfathomably agile. At the bottom they came over and talked to me astonished and laughed. Good guys.
