Okay, that visual is funny.

And peeping toms.

I’d prefer a hovercraft!

Speaking on behalf of the rich, we only like the skulls of our vanquished enemies.

<Accessing that rooftop comes with a hilarious catch>

Walmart tires are a bad sign if you care about proper maintenance. Plus, those wheels are hideous.

I had a machinist with a beater (is there any other kind) K-Car limo. In Chicago. That had to be one of the stupidest car purchases ever.

Yeah, I’ve heard similar numbers. It will be interesting to see how well reality matches up. Modeling aero in a turbulent field is pretty tough.

<There are plenty of full-sized SUVs with 20 gallon plus tanks, but I have not been able to find a current car with a tank in the range of 20-21 gallons that also gets around 13-15 MPG.>

Yeah, as I said elsewhere, I misread what he was trying to say. I agree on pay-to-play.

I’d love that. Heck, have double point Spec Miata races during the season to keep it even.  :)

Yeah, I read it as “buy the world championship.” My bad.

<DRS where only the overtaking car has it is dumb.>

<I don’t think F1 can call itself a sport in the 21st century if drivers can still easily buy their way into the world championship.>

Sure. I’ll fully grant you that it was a band-aid. But that’s like saying that football is not a sport, because the rules about hitting a quarterback are a band-aid for concussion problems.

DRS helped, in my opinion. Prior to that, the aero had become so twitchy that passing didn’t happen.

<Yes, the classic “get over it” argument.>

<Mercedes have intents to appeal the decision. The FIA International Court of Appeal will adjudicate the appeal. If the appeal is dismissed, Mercedes can take its case>

Serious question. How do we know that FSD was engaged? This could easily have been a “crap, I was texting, but I don’t want my insurance company to know” moment.

You misread my post. Hence, the reply. I didn’t say the Miata was faster. I said, “If you want to sit, get a Miata, which is again much more practical and a hell of a lot of fun.”
