In that case I’m going to start billing Wal-Mart for the transport costs for me to get to their stores and back to buy their goods, since that’s their standardized way of doing business now apparently.

The Isle of Man TT is extremely worth going to. At the end of race week was the most amazing feeling of pure euphoria I’ve ever had.

The ‘07 DBS definitely should be either right ahead or right behind the DB9, depending on how you feel about hood vents. And the pair of those should probably definitely be ahead of the modern DBS. There is no justification (given or imaginable) for having it ranked last out of 15, apart from generating angry comment…

Isn’t Polestar a sub-division of Volvo? They have lots of capital to throw at things, and experience to know how. 

I hated the new grille as much as anyone, but man I think it *really* works on the race version with the right livery

Alright let’s say you just want to have an RTG to recharge your car overnight. Tesla’s home charging system delivers about 11 kW for this purpose. The most common RTG type is Plutonium, which produces 0.54 W/g. So you will need a 44 lb block of Plutonium somewhere in your vehicle. Does that sound appealing? By the way…

If it had a 2ZZ or K20 swap, it would be hilarious to go rallycrossing with. As-is though, I’d pay at most 2 grand for the joke.

I thought I’d heard it was an aero advantage actually

There’s a relatively new Cruis’n’ arcade cabinet at my local kart place, though personally I was never much a fan of the game. SF Rush though...

I dumped so many quarters into those arcade cabinets.

Nobody brought up Sidecar racing, huh? Gotta be the most bananas-crazy motorsport out there.

I’ve been fantasizing about a new Jet Moto since MotorStorm came out. Imagine it with modern water simulation and raytracing.

I think it’s left out because it last graced this planet in the year of our lord 1999. Barely anyone under the age of 30 has any awareness that it ever existed.

You forgot Jet Moto! And Road Rash! And Rollcage! And Destruction Derby! And Hydro Thunder! But most especially Jet Moto.

I’m partly convinced inflation is conspiratorial. Not in a “crazy conspiracy theory” way, just in a market collusion way. Price of milk and gas goes up, economists are like “oh no milk and gas went up 8%!” and everyone else is just like, “well I guess that’s inflation innit, better raise our prices I guess,” and…

Driving my Elise out in the country, following an F-150. As it goes into the right turn lane at a T-junction, I continue on in the main lane as it slows down. Now because I’m in an Elise behind an F-150, the guy turning left from the connecting road at the junction doesn’t see me, though I had seen him on approach…

It is absolutely epic to attend in person. No question to me it’s the greatest motorsport event on Earth, and I’ve been around.

I went to a hillclimb event last year and brought my road bike along to ride the course for funsies. I hit 48 mph on the downhill return loop, and it was pretty scary. Only reason I didn’t break 50 is because I chickened out bit, didn’t go full tuck, and kept tapping the brakes. I’ve hit 45 mph on my mountain bike (on…

It really is a phenomenal piece of game design to be able to balance all the different vehicle types that feel SO different, AND the courses’ multiple routes simultaneously like that. It should be taught in game design schools.

MotorStorm Pacific Rift was just a stupendous game. Ever since it came out I wished that studio would make a new Jet Moto game.
