I for one love the fact that there are people preserving cars that aren’t ravaged by miles and years. I love seeing a pristine example of a car from 40-50 years ago.

underrated comment. Needs more stars.

That’s their version of a point by. It is funny though.

1st gear: ford has been beating GM’s ass in truck sales for a long time. Long before the aluminum issue. Chevy has been creating terrible advertising for quite a while too. The damn bear cage commercial is aweful. I almost said the worst, but then I remember the emoji commercial and the “looks like a BMW” commercial…

Yeah, because the teams that got screwed didn’t put their blood sweat and tears like the teams that benefited. I say if you can’t get BOP right, then just get rid of it and let them race with no restrictions. The problem is some of the teams would take their ball and go home. The race organizers don’t want that.

Yeah, I don’t think this qualifies as a “Hate tweet”

Short term Brexit is going to be rough. Long term I think it was the right call. We will see. I think we will continue to see fallout for at least a year or two.

I liked the guys, I just didn’t like the show. I haven’t watched this season, but the first few were always so scripted and the challenges were just boring and fake feeling. Unfortunately when you have 3 people with vastly different driving ability they have to be fake or more creative. Racing cars with a bowl of…

I was getting worried I hadn’t found a Leno reference. Thank you for restoring my faith in the Jellopicnic readership.

“I wonder what the current record was? I bet it came down to the wire. Hope the team stays grounded to the ground, even after a plug from Jalopnik.”

I think that’s a fine opinion. I have quit watching LOT. Just got to be too much goofiness for me. Supposed to be about saving the world, but just seems like an opportunity for the characters to play dress up.

I have a feeling Ford and Ferrari will both be nerfed for the rest of the season anyway. This was Fords big moment, and Ferrari hung back (sandbagged with them) so they could play spoiler.

Note to self. Don’t go to this racetrack.

Yeah, lots of people make that mistake. Kind of like no one believes my car is a Buick. “That’s not a Buick” is all I ever hear.

Probably not even a lap. The extra fuel will be burned up with the extra air they are allowed. Probably won’t change the range significantly but allow them to produce more power while maintaining range.

You would hope, but they actually improved their lap time by 5 seconds between testing and qualifying. That’s some great engineering!

Hopefully none, but who knows. I know the Corvette team commented that they have been sharing their data with the governing body (supposedly to be up front about everything).

Time for an update. They tweaked the BOP again. Who knows if they just sent things in the other direction. 10 kilos added to the Ferrari and Ford I think.

Yeah, well she’s a guy.

She reminds me a lot of the girl from Breaking Bad.
