I was one of the handful of cold, wet and faithful in those grandstands that day and it was so worth it. You had to be among the faithful- 40 degrees at best with a constant sideways drizzle. I am a Glen regular but I had never so clearly noticed what appeared to be a very diverse international audience. There were a…
OH wow I also had those exact neons installed on my ‘01 Bravada, under every seat and behind the horizontal grille slats that pulsed with the music...also whenever we shut a door too hard.
I approve because manual H pattern.
Is it possible for a manufacturer to straight up raid the styling parts bin? What I’m seeing is a mismatch of a few different Hondas/ Acuas up front as Cammisa puts it, and the ass end looks like it belongs on a Civic or Accord Coupe.
OH man, my friend and his sister had identical Altimas but for a slight difference in the browns. When we worked at a ski resort for a season he spun it into a telephone pole, only after I told him he really needs snow tires for our job because of course he thought they made him invincible as he sped back after work…
Fun Fact! Long ago the creator of WGI, Cameron Argetsinger, educated Bernie on how to extort people, communities and governments into throwing money at racing promotions.
Looks like the Z’s are running away with it.
and still have enough parts to build a second wheeler
Rallycross/ compensating the lack of awd with snow tires and throttle.
Wheelie/ slide machines. there’s a dude on oppo restoring one of these.
Can’t believe I rode around in one of these ages 6-14 and didn’t think much of it or my tiny, tiny mother being an unstoppable force to sledding and birthdays in the worst 90’s snow storms.
This is what I see every time. Space whale.
This is the exact car that made me love cars, and buy an Audi Coupe. Having said that, NO. F*CK NO.
“...and meeting with Doug DeMuro so he can see what driving a well-set up all-wheel-drive twin-turbocharged Japanese halo car is really like.”
He fits a hipster father figure ideal among new money car people...not their father’s stuffy cardigan and moccasins look; hand washing the never-driven family Porshe in the driveway. Magnus is the rock n’ roll tuner.
When someone asks me why I like to go to vintage races every year I’m just going to show them this video. All the cars have compelling stories. Glad there’s hardly a car in any Laguna Seca Historic’s that I haven’t seen at WGI’s city wide vintage bash, save the Audi and a Ferrari or so far. Lots of them attend…
Please, please review all of Jalopniks fast cars from now on.
NASCAR at Watkins Glen has always been the glimpse of a V8 Supercar series America never got, which makes it one of the greatest motor racing spectacles currently in existence. It is the insanity of NASCAR and its base with excellent camping and some of the best spectator viewing as far as road courses go.
#1 There might be video, there is certainly data of it happening at least twice so far. Did I say faster at every track specifically with a brand new SR8 and a top diver? This open wheel just had more torque and better gearing for our track and the others, including a Radical, Just. Couldn’t. Keep. Up.
