Hah. Crushing it today with memory lane content. The years the jag competed against the bmw 635 csi in the ETCC was my favorite touring car memories. Hans Heyer and Tom Walkinshaw on one side, Dieter Quester and Hans Joachim Stuck on the other. Good stuff!

BOOT STRAPS! HARD WORK! SELF MADE!

Grow up. 

Transcribing a 1-hour interview is about as close to back-breaking work as this job gets. I hope you all like it.

 

Again, a proper GT2 will have been restored to factory spec. You clearly don’t know Porsche folks, they definitely would have rebuilt a GT2 from just a VIN, because it’s a MILLION DOLLAR CAR.

This isn’t an S15, it’s a goddamn GT2. 

Why do you car about being seen in it, if its ignored on the road?

Well, I’ll tell you how it is next Saturday when I’m going to drive the track. It’s the first public opening since they started remodeling last year. Looking forward to the changes they made (turn 3 was always banked, but it’s steeper now).

I call bullshit. It obvious what’s really happening.

“...appears to have no rust whatsoever.”

I would put heated steering wheel at the top of that list....a true game changer. 

Adam Corolla is working on a doc about them as we speak. 

This would work so damn well on the movie screen...

☝️ This. Or all encompassing that IMSA era w John Paul, Randy Lanier etc. Or the Don Aronow murder and Apache/offshore powerboat racing scene in the 80s

Ravenholm -was- terrifying. I submit the parking garage in Ep. 1 is way worse.

I think it looks cool. But I liked the Gumpert Apollo, too. So. What do I know.

This is gonna be a bit sour, but... there’s not much description of actually driving the car, or the driving experience in this article about driving this car, besides saying the new one is better, it feels very vague and skimmed over, I was hoping for more than a few sentences about it. I know it’ll have some more

Texas clay can stop anything. Anything.

It looks really ugly.

Iowa, driving from Minnesota to Kansas City. They’ve got nice highways but it’s all just farmland and wind turbines. The top of the state looks exactly like the bottom of the state, and all the way through. Time essentially stands still as you make your way across the state.
