A few years ago it really began reaching an increasingly scary ‘us-and-them’ mentality when any and all criticism of Israel is anti-semetism and it is going to come back and bite them very hard in the future in a Boy Who Cried Wolf way.

Frankly, Porsche’s problem with electric cars is that they’re still following their ICE mindset of top-tier performance.

Is this ‘synthetic’ fuel in the same way that the oil I use in my car is ‘synthetic’?

What year are you thinking of? It won in 2015 and there were BMWs, Porsches, Astons, and Ferraris. It was one of the healthiest years for GTLM, just before Ford showed up.

From what I read elsewhere the only reason Osaka isn’t #1 right now is because of some score weighing and rules tweaks the WTA put through to cope with the pandemic. If we weren’t struggling with covid, she’d be world #1 right now.

Gonna take some real timing and luck to get the ice off without melting the paint off too.

Honda gave up on the extremely expensive F1 program in favor of rededicating themselves to their far more competitive Indycar and IMSA programs. I’ll be surprised if they don’t spin up a DPh program to take to Le Mans

Brown manual wagon no longer BDE enough for Jalopnik?

Russell’s agent is Toto, he’s going to Mercedes unless they leave the sport when Lewis does. Valtteri’s seat is his for as long as Lewis wants him around, because Merc doesn’t want to upset the apple cart and go back to what it was like with Nico pissing Lewis off and team morale going into the shitter.

He won in a dominant Toyota with basically zero meaningful competition after Porsche retired from the field.  Sportscars are also a whole different kind of racing.  His accomplishments are deeply impressive but hardly surprising and not particularly relevant to going back to a solidly mid-field Renault team.  Just…

Bringing together Danny and Lando is a stroke of genius, because Danny’s always been destined for a championship if he gets the right car under him and Lando’s showing rapid improvement and has developed a reputation for working hard in the garage with the team.  Combine their public popularity and the current McLaren…

The only way Ferrari win anything this season is if the entire field crashes into each other at a restart again.

There will be at least as many yellow flags as there are LMP3 cars.

The moderator of the AMC forum lives in Germany?

Oh dear, looks like baby’s first involvement with a group the government doesn’t like is gonna get a whole bunch of the worst assholes in the country picked up for domestic terrorism.

I’ve known two Harley owners in my life. One was a dude about my age, hardline marxist who just plain didn’t give a shit about it and grew up down south so all the old dudes he’d run into were probably his uncle anyway and was a good friend to have a pint with. Other was an embittered divorced old boss who fired me…

Ditto, but I’m pretty sure it was a Porsche GT? something test mule, she’s one of their factory test drivers and something went badly wrong and the shunt put her in the wall at speed. Which at Le Castellet is a real ask because the runoffs there are insane (it’s the french gp track for F1 with all of the eye-dazzling…

Does the sub come with Motortrend channel and Food Network or is it just for Discovery?

As Bradley pointed out, Jr put up his own money to help get his dad a drive in the series.  Purely symbolic because god knows Sainz could get any offroad drive in any race on earth if he showed an interest.  It’s pretty heartwarming.

The problem with ‘buying a lifestyle’ is that the lifestyle brand has to keep living up to the perception you want to project.
