People who don’t ride don’t realize just how easy it is to lock up the front/rear tires under emergency braking and highside to your death.

Less gas, not completely lift off, that way you avoid snap oversteer.
Or just ease off gas and counter steer lightly. Most people have never done this before and just panic. This is what Gran Turismo/Forza is for.
Love these old hardtails. Hope to try one out someday.
They are sold throughout the Caribbean/Latin America, my uncle has one.
He actually bought it afterwards.
That white Harley U model hardtail is pure sex.
It would work much like your repetitive, substanceless articles, I think.
Nah.
Awesome build but let’s be real, most people don’t have the time, expertise, or resources to embark on such a massive project. This guy should open his own garage and do this professionally. I would definitely purchase a tastefully resto-modded car like this.
The Porsche is actually closer to running, he’s just replacing the suspension at the moment, then he wants to re-do the dash. The RX-7 is a whole other story. He bought the car years back with the NA motor, drove it for a while before mistakenly deciding to turbo it. It’s been in various states of assembly since then.…
It’s not the size of the tires but rather the aggressive tread pattern. Can easily make a 2-4 mpg difference.
My best friend has a 944, his brother has an RX-7. Neither of them run currently.
It’s NP if you like old, uncomfortable, slow, loud and maintenance heavy cars.
Talbot Lago T150. The craftsmanship that went into the cars in this period is mind boggling.
I’ve really enjoyed learning how to adjust the carb on my old truck. Feel like I’ve tapped into an esoteric knowledge. It’s also really cool and inspiring in a way to see how people solved engineering problems with purely mechanical means before computers.
I DD my ‘84 Eddie Bauer. Come at me.
It’ll be fine, just give it a good rinse after.
I haven’t visited Orlando in a few years but Miami has gotten insufferable. There is rush hour like congestion on every local street and highway (Turnpike, Palmetto, I-95. etc) from 9 am to 11 pm nowadays. Previously you could count on side roads to keep you sane but even those are jam packed now. It’s awful.
I’d nominate Miami over Orlando but yeah, I’m surprised nowhere in South Florida got picked. I guess their proposals sucked? It’s a shame because they REALLY need it, probably only Los Angeles is worse.
