Right? The still for that video is of the BL, and I’m thinking I’d be pretty excited to see one too. 

There’s a high probability that none of those cars actually have any mechanical bits in them anymore. 

Out of curiosity were spring rates different side to side? IIRC that mail delivery vehicles usually have some kind of tub or something next to the driver where a lot of the mail is actually carried. I would imagine they’d be beefier on that side. 

Don’t always hear that second syllable.

There was a guy on the Miata forum who told of clipping the ends off all the zip ties holding the wiring harness together, just for a weight advantage in his showroom stock autocross car. Claimed he did it within a couple of days of bringing the new car home (like, new-new, not new to him). I forget what all else he…

What I really wanna know is...why was that Hannity smoking? Like, the header photo looks shopped but that really happened?

I would watch this. Hell, I think I’ve been to this mall.

Reminded of a story I read in a Bill Bryson book, where he was talking about the grocery store his mom shopped at. They had a little mechanical conveyor belt that the bagger would load your stuff onto, then you got your car and pulled out to a little kiosk in the parking lot to get your stuff. Super space age, and…

I never understood the hype behind Chik-Fil-A. I’d never eaten at one but I knew loads of people who raved about it, so when one opened up near me I went in and got a sandwich and fries (this was juuuust as it was starting to be a statement to eat there or not. Sometime after the Cathay family’s opinions became news,…

I also don’t recall him wearing gloves in the car - maybe they were light colored or something. 

It also occurs to me that a lot of Corvette types who bemoan some kind of change in the newest version, always say “Welp, I guess I’ll just have to keep my C5" or whatever previous generation car they already have. I saw it happen with the C6 because it didn’t have flip up headlights, and holy shit did it happen with…

I think I’m the only person I know who’s dad didn’t have a Playboy stash somewhere in the house. And I searched everywhere in that place! I’m pretty sure he just kept them at work, along with the cigarettes he wasn’t allowed to smoke. 

I think I saw a boob!

Oh man, I’d have kept the XJS wheels.

Do people call Keystone beer “Stone”? I’ve never actually heard it but I also can’t remember the last time I had one either. 

Sexy rabbit, Easter’s for kids! 

Me too! I thought I was the only person who remembered that game.

Basically, yes. I suppose they probably vent some brake heat from behind those solid wheels but they’re surely not drawing any in.

Performance Car was my favorite magazine up till like 1995 or 6, then it went out of production for a while. I tried it again when it was relaunched but it wasn’t the same. I still have one or two issues kicking around. 

Well, yeah, you don’t want THE GOVERNMENT deciding what health care you can have, right? You want a bean counter at an insurance company!
