I watched a Southeastern Michigan truck’s rear driver’s side brake caliper and rotor fall _off_ the car while coming to a stop. Said brake caliper and rotor did its best Thanos Snap impression and turned to dust.

I immediately threw on my turn signal and nope’d out of there onto a different road.

I have a buddy who rode from Kalamazoo, MI to Sterling Heights, MI in 17 degree F weather.

Video, more like. We’ve all seen pictures of a BMW with hazards on, which was more or less close enough...

I’d make that trade.

The C7 has a racing line that competes in GTLM.

The rumored C8/mid-engine could be a derivative of the Cadillac DPi.

The “slushbox” on a NA Miata is widely regarded to be one of the _best_ transmissions out there. “Dreadful”?

I guess this is a really hot take, but Porsche GT3, Lamborghini Super Trofeo, and Ferrari Challenge — all three are super obscure (comparatively) and can be referred to on their own terms (“I’m gonna watch the Super Trofeo race this weekend” as opposed to “the IMSA Super Trofeo race” — and yes, I’m aware of the

I’ve always just heard it called “IMSA” races.

Yes, that encompasses the prior race, but that’s a gamble I’m willing to make

“The car that meant so much to me as a child was the F40, because I had three things on my bedroom wall: Bart Simpson, Pamela Anderson and the Ferrari F40.”

I hate to break it to you but there’s really nothing special about like...any “special edition” Miata.

Start with a real good claybar/compound/polish/waxing.

Then take a GOOD look at it and re-ask yourself that question.

Personally, I think there can be a pretty happy medium found between “subtle

I went out of my way to get a Belstaff riding jacket. They’re a pretty well known brand for exactly that.

The drivers parade is always filled with locally owned classic cars.

I need a video of this hooning about. For science.

Unfortunately it’s not really a decision. I paid for Bruno Mars and dammit I’ll go to Bruno Mars.

maybe if you guys are still there after...

Me, seeing lede: “Wait, I know a guy with a high mileage Mazda minivan...”
