Many years ago, I attended races at that track a few times. Made for a nice little weekend getaway not too far from home.

There is ALWAYS someone in the year that should have been cut long ago. When I was in 9th grade (way back in the early 80's), we had a 23-year-old 9th grader in the Junior High. I only learned of his existence because he was in my health class. It was his final year of school before mandatory schooling ended (NJ had…

Most people have zero clue of the purpose of tariffs, let alone how they work, as the US press has been demonstrating for many, many months.

And thus, Jalopnik started its own “entitled parents” section to compete with reddit. Because that sheriff’s deputy fits the bill.

I see a less than thorough or accurate attempt at an 80's Monte Carlo.

How exactly are those cassette adapters obsolete? Those FM cigarette lighter adapters will inevitably run into interference from existing radio stations, so I need something that lets me plug in MP3 player into a factory standard radio. The 6-disc cartridge-based CD player won’t play MP3 files off disc and I like…

They protected the tapes, not the VCR. Both audio a video cassette players had the same fatal flaw - there were mechanical parts the players inserted into the path of the tape, which could result in a tape-destroying snag when the tape was run at speeds higher than playback speed. These, on the other hand, just spun…

So many people and insurance companies give us NJ drivers crap without ever considering for a moment that our problem is the fact that drunken morons like the one in the news story head for our shore towns from NY, PA, DE and MD for about 8 months out of every year.

I’m not surprised it can reach 20 MPH as a top speed. What I’m curious about is how much time it takes to finally reach that top speed. After all, that is why motor vehicles use transmissions in the drive train - it allows the vehicle to eventually reach a speed far greater that it could with straight engine RPMs…

LOL. My first thought there is... “Have fun finding a decent replacement exhaust kit.” The aftermarket stuff is mild steel garbage that lasts maybe 18 months if you’re lucky. My original exhaust rusted out after 18 years and I have dealt with nearly annual replacement for more than a half decade now. I’m thinking…

I’ve got a 1994 Accord and two spare engines. I’ve driven nearly 2.5 miles for every miles this guy has driven and I swap motors about every 500k. They are in a perpetual state of 1 driving and 2 rebuilding. Picked up the spare engines from a couple of insurance wrecks.

Sorry, but NJ is NOT a desolate part of the world. Long, LONG before this even became a thing in CA, we had our first official facilities dedicated to getting racing and sideshows off the street. You pay a fee, you get to drag or race or drive in silly tire-burning circles, and in return you don’t have to worry about…

Hell, I can go into downtown Camden NJ and buy a copy off a sidewalk vendor in front of the transit center. In full sight of security cameras and transit and city cops!

You left out the fact that the US has essentially been on the losing end of trade imbalances since the middle of WW2, especially once you factor in that even the “good years” were deficit years because the “trade boom” was the result of restrictions on spending US military and foreign aid (i.e., we’ll give you this…

All I have to say about the Polaris CEO appropriately whining so he can live up to his last name is... Sure, you invested in manufacturing and payroll in the US. But you’re still complaining about the high costs of parts coming from China. So clearly you’ve either invested in the wrong fashion or invested…

That makes me really wonder.... Why hasn’t someone figured out yet to make a car stupidly fast and then give it a face that looks like a complete idiot running down the road. Then they can advertise it like “You can literally see how stupid fast this car is.” :D

Here I am, thinking “awesome open air museum concept! How much are the tickets?” only to find out it is no such thing.  But... just imagine how many more cars would be on the property if they were selling tickets, eh?

Well, something is up at jaguar. “shared mobility” is not something people who can afford a Jag have any interest in. Exclusivity floats their boats.

Interesting how Russia tried to bury news of this crash involving the first new commercial passenger jet design the nation has produced since the end of the USSR. First it was one fatality, then 13, and now stands at 41. The plane has an abysmal service record - at least one incident or crash per year since 2013, and…

I just want to know... Did the person who decided the paint scheme for that car in the opening photo intentionally rip off the Constructicons?
