If posting cats is cool, then consider me Miles Davis. Stef may be too young to remember the time I posted 1,000 cat pics all over a certain forum in one day...but yeah, I have a cat problem. Also, if I were a writer, I’d write every article (poorly) from the perspective of my various vehicles. Mostly it would be them…

I’m not a writer, but look at my avatar and then make the craziest, most irresponsible choice available. You won’t regret it.

One of the writer responses here is not accurate. I won’t say who, but there is a definite lack of a mayonnaise answer here.

Legends and the Baby Grands are super fun, I haven’t tried the whatevertheyarecalled ones that look like old formula cars. *knocks on wood* I’ll have the Atom at the track next weekend, so I can’t say whether that is more fun than a Legends yet. It has some issues from the PO the first time I tried. My brother and I…

Hideous. Worse than the reborn 6 series. The rounded bottom edges make it look like it is SUV height, and that grill is terrible. Rear has too much 6 in the spoiler. Greenhouse is tiny, so it will be like driving a Camaro.

“I need a new dedicated autocross and hill-climb car that could potentially go to the track some day too.” She says nothing about street legal, and “dedicated” to me says it is a car just for those non-street activities. Thus:

I used to be a bit of a Ford fanboi, but never again. I bought a new 2012 Boss 302, and the driver side front caliper was leaking from new, 1st, reverse, and 4th gear would lock out from new, the paint was full of black specs in the fenders, and the exhaust banged on the floorboards. By 200 miles, it consumed a liter…

The cars I’ve owned aren’t as varied as the list of ones I’ve driven. I get a hair up my butt about a nicer car every few years and test drive them, plus I am lucky to have friends that own exotics (still haven’t talked anyone into letting me drive a 918, unfortunately), but other than the Atom I have not been able to…

I looked into getting a 911 in 2S, GT3, and Turbo variations in 2006, 2010, 2012, 2014, and 2016, and each was less special than the one before. (997 GT3RS, especially 4.0, was woohoo! but I couldn’t swing the price at the time) I’ve also driven every previous generation, the 930 being my favorite car of all time. The…

Not what happened here. One person went to almost every counsel, PTA, etc meeting for years to nag them, until they finally got tired of dealing with her and gave in. Then she nagged them to change to the other type of bump. I know her personally, she admits to and is proud of her accomplishment.

Palo Alto. They put five (5) speed tables (like elongated speed bumps) on the one (1) block section of road that was the only access from one direction to the neighborhood I lived in. 5 on 1 block. Then they decided it didn’t work well enough, so they ripped them out and put in 5 regular speed bumps. I learned that at…

The Aristrocats!

I don’t have speakers so maybe he pointed this out in the video, but FIA (or FIA styled) fixed back seats without at least a rollbar, FIA fixed back seats with a standard 3 point, and 5/6 pt belts attached to the back belts, rear child restraint hooks, or even the floor behind the seat are not a “super effective way…

An article about motorcycle rivalries, and no mention of Rossi saying “Gibernau will never win another race”and then proving it?

Widowmaker is always the answer. That’s what they call the 930 ur-turbo. This one is even Jalop brown.

“Hey Pasquale, you know what’a this here 449 engine needs? More CCs. Lets stroke it to’a 501"

I just called my mechanic, because I need an engine out repair on a bike, and he says he is too old and stopped doing anything that requires him to pick up engines.

I missed this the other day, but this is a story that needs to be told. Many, many moons ago, in 1997 iirc, I was a freshman in college. As an 18 year old, I had to find someone older to buy my booze, and the gentleman I found (and became very good friends with) was an 21 year old African-American fellow (he was…

Carb + kickstart + tip it over...not fun times. I’d agree with most of what you said, but I’d also point out that the fastest bike (what racers want) or the most reliable bike (what smart people want) is not always the most fun bike (what I want). They can make EFI have the urgency and direct feel of a carb, but…

Mine was an OG ‘93, first US year. By the time I got it (2005ish) they actually had decent 16" tires designed for the 900s, but it still sucked compared to a 17". I was very far from stock (cams, flat slides, pistons, etc) which did not help matters.
