Reasonable suspicion but hopefully there ain't an alien in the woodpile. I suspect he might be imbued with the spirits of past souls somehow as he also is able to correctly identify the three bodystyles of old 911's (coupe, cab, targa) and can correctly fetch tools from the tool chest eight times out of ten when I am

My two year old was sitting next to me when the photo of the vintage Beetle popped up. He asked me what the words on the side of the "Beetlebug" said. When I read them out to him he said "Just like you, Daddy." His insight is powerful for one so young...

Troof. I am amazed he managed to even get the car out of the lot of the bar at that level of shitfaced. No sympathy for that idiot at all and his passenger had to know Dunn was faded. Bad choices for both=fiery death + lesson for the rest of us.

....and now I feel awful for writing this screed as it looks like Ryan was a fellow enthusiast who really dug Porsches and had gone through some SCCA rookie license training. Goddamn shame that he made such a bad decision and it cost him and his passenger dearly. The limits on modern cars are so high that when you

I hate myself for even thinking this but for a guy who attained fame by shoving things in his ass looks like speed and booze "rectum" pretty good. I have seen cars with cages get pretty tore up hitting trees at much lower speeds so it's no surprise that there are only bits left after a big hit at that speed.

I might consider selling one of my kids to fund that ALMS deal if I could convince myself that I wouldn't drink too much Patron and subsequently boot in the pace car on the out lap. Oh, wait, I guess selling a kid wouldn't make me a good father. Rats. I guess I'll have to live with watching the race on TV while

...and there you have it. In rally, standard procedure after you wreck is to set out warning triangles like these guys did and signal the next guy to either stop if you are able to get out and need help (display red cross from route book), signal the next car to stop if the course is blocked, or display an OK sign and

Has to be talking cars. I know that Sat Nav now gives you helpful oral directions but nothing was cooler in the early '80's than having your fly Datsun 810 or LeBaron remind you to turn off your lights or close the door. Bonus nerd points if you hacked the speaker to make the voice sound like Kathleen Turner or a

In Soviet Russia, April Fools You!

But where did she put the keys to the Cavalier?

Dang. Well said.

When I was a kid, I always lusted after Porsche 930's. Big fenders, big boost, and a reputation for only being for the "best" drivers.

Au-ooh-di Akbar!

Amir Rosenbaum is not amused.

Was that last commenter on the video Hank Hill? I was waiting for him to start talking about how awesome that propane powered Monster Mustang was.

Big cliffs, big rocks, and big clanking brass buckets of courage. There were too many opportunities to run out of talent, tire, and luck to count and my helmet is doffed accompanied with a deep bow of respect. Well done.

@Gimmi Mørgäikkönën: Local dude here in Sacramento took one of these and dropped it on an '80's S-10 frame with a 350 and a Muncie. I think he did another one for a customer so there is plenty of potential in these poor things that were forced to display Old Navy gear (a/k/a slutty clothes for heavier girls) for so

@dwp: Dang. Didn't know the gremlins from the Risk Management Department were riding along. Makes me almost pine for my old '89 LX that was only limited by its rather agricultural aero profile and long 5th gear. Thanks for the info and I'll keep an eye peeled for video of the first one of these to show up at VIR
