It was French, sold by AMC, and turbocharged. Gee, what could go wrong?

As much as I hate to admit it, there’s one of these in the family. Gas mileage...not so hot, but the toys and the interior space pretty good. One of the great features are the rear doors, they open ALL THE WAY, which for my daughter shuffling a 18 month old in and out is a key feature as well as the 1000000000000000…

This is where you went wrong:

“The Eaton N8D six-speed is unapologetically a truck transmission. Shift slow, shift often. “

No. A truck manual is shift slow, shift only when need to. A truck is about torque and doing work. Hell, in my last manual truck, I’d start off in second, shift to 4th at about 40 and leave it…

The Countach will always be the pinnacle of the 80s supercar. Forget your Testarossa-Don-Johnson-in-pastel, the Lambo was in-your-face-sexy-wild-weird-sexy unobtainable but you wanted that bitch on your wall in 3x2 paper glory. Those who grew up after the 80s won’t understand, and that’s ok.

To me, any Lambo after the…

Screw ‘em, if they saw my yard with 6 VW buses, 3 bajas, 2 RAMs, a Mustang on blocks, they would forget all about your glorious hunk of ‘Merica.

Now, how much for the yellow Valiant parked behind the fence???

That is impressive...

Here’s another man with amazing car control. There’s a reason he was 3-time champion. Watch opposite lock at about 1:10

The 48RE isn’t a bad transmission as long as you FOLLOW THE FACTORY RECOMMENDED SERVICE (which NO ONE does on any of the 4xRE transmissions). Biggest failure are the 1\R bands, which are easy to adjust when doing a fluid change. I have yet to have a Ram transmission need a rebuild before 250k just by following the…

I’ll get some anti-Nascar hate for this one but...

Snow? Where's the snow? Hell, I can't even FIND MY RACE CAR right now. Pfffft. You southern folk need to stick to your tornadoes and reptiles...

If you think ‘we the People’ actually elect our government, then you might want to think again. We ‘elect’ those that have been carefully selected and bought by corporations. When it comes to the Executive Branch, the Electoral College is a farce, as we’ve seen in the past where the person who wins the popular vote…

Hey Tyler, they wouldn't happen to be going over the pole or up to Canada and then over would they? I'm in western Maine, we usually get maybe one pair of military aircraft flying over every 3 months or so. In the last 24 hours I've counted a dozen with four in just the last 30 minutes. Only caught a glimpse of one…

Just increases my respect for the man. That takes some serious introspection and balance between ego and id. There's no doubt in my mind the man can wheel a car, but how many other drivers demote themselves because they aren't getting the job done instead of blaming it on the car, rules, the team, 'bad luck, etc. Nice…

So they are charging $5 for something that most of us can walk into a store around the corner (even up here in the backwoods of Maine) and get for $.99. I say GOOD FOR THEM.

Hold on, before you hit me with a hammer.

The issue isn't what they are charging, the real issue is people are dumb enough to pay what they are…

I guess now that Kurt can't be around the assassin, the ISIS is safe to hack www.kurtbusch.com? They might want to be careful around the Childress camp, though, Richard has quite a collection of firearms and likes to use them:)

Irony of the Ryan Newman comment, the man has a degree in Mechanical Engineering from Purdue, last time I check that took a little bit of intelligence. Obviously, the guys in the Big Red Truck aren't quite as smart.

Right. A Morgan +8. MP4-12C. Ford GT and GTX1. 383 'cuda. 440 Challenger. Viper ACR. Type 181.
Yeh.
All shit cars.

I guess if he had a collection of Civics plastered with Type-R stickers, that would be better?

He just sold his Type 181 VW a few weeks ago over on BaT. He has great taste in cars, you could see the '70 (partially) in one of the shots used for the auction.

Interior? Lovely, but then the RAM has always had the better interior design (although not the best choice of material quality at times) out of the Big Three. They didn't change the silhouette, smart, likewise the general front end design outside of that chrome monstrosity of a grill, what the hell are they thinking?…

Pretty much I think you're right. Add to that every team has a 'museum' and tours, all within driving distance of Charlotte. So, if you have $$ burning in your pocket, where are you, Joe Average NASCAR fan, going to go? To see cars and driving suits of people you might have heard the name dropped in some black and…

My baja cost me $476, including purchase price of the car. No, this wasn't in 1974 but 4 years ago. While $3500 isn't bad, if you aren't afraid to get your hands dirty, do some networking and horse trading, you can go even cheaper than that. I got my '68 in a package deal with pair of T2 Buses. I kept one Bus for…
