How far you progress on this ladder depends on your sponsorship money, and your skill.

Myles is a great guy! He used to do track days in that Integra here, and we nicknamed it “The Fury” as he’d putt through the corners, but one he got onto the front, or back straight, he’d nail it. So, as the semi-official videographer of my band of friends, I would say “OK, time to unleash the fury!” when he came

Kinda funny you put it that way Stef. He said the same thing about the spin on FB. :-)

I was mildly interested in one when I first heard of them. I assumed, “How could they POSSIBLY screw up an electric car? They’re so simple!”. Sounds like they figured out a way.

So, what kinds of things have you had problems with?

Oh, there you go poking me in the feels again. I have a COMPLETELY illogical love for Maseratis. And the current target of that love is the Granturismo MC. (Looks to the left of the desk and sees GT MC model sitting on top of Raspberry Pi 3 case).

I know they’re terrible unreliable cars, but I can’t help myself.

Sad really. “We make shit, and we know it. Wanna buy some?” (shakes head). Makes me wonder if the beautiful 8C was junk under that beautiful skin.

Since I was referring to FCA as a whole, I could point to the Fiat 500. But your Alfa point stands.

Yeah, I FULLY understand that. What it SHOULD do, is force them to build better cars, or suffer the wraith of the warranty claims. It would also go a long way to reassure the public that they’re serious about making a car that will spend more time in YOUR garage than the dealerships.

I’ll throw this chum in the water. Remember when Hyundai first came to the US? They were TRASH, absolute, unmitigated JUNK. Lots of people formed their opinions of them based on those crappy cars. It took them YEARS to overcome that stigma. And how did they do it? By making better cars, but also by offering a

How does it look upside down in a ditch on fire?

In OTHER Jaguar related news, it was announced today at a press conference that Jaguar will return to Formula 1 racing is a tie up with engine supplier Honda. Jaguar says it’ll be good for raising awareness of their new SUV, as anyone who has seen how the Honda lump performs naturally thinks “F PACE!”. Which ties in

I can no longer fight it. I now have to post this response to these articles.

“What does it look like upside in a ditch on fire?”

And Alonso has said that he’s leaving at the end of the year. Well, not in as many words. He said that if McLaren wins a race before the end of the season that he’ll stay. So, in other words, he’s out at the end of the season.

For me personally, I’m just amazed that the service manager races porches. That must be something to see! Can we get video?

Ohh those crazy canucks!

OK, that’s it! I demand we implement a HALO system to protect riders!

Holy oversteer Batman!

I saw the car oversteer at corner entry, mid corner, and corner exit, all in the same corner! As 3 separate events.

INDY LIGHTS ENGINE! INDY LIGHTS ENGINE!

Pretty drama free run except for that oversteer event he had in schnitzengruben. Other than that, nice clean lap.

There was a time in the mid 80's when Coke was doing a promotion where they stamped numbers on the pull tabs of Coke product cans. These numbers corresponded to promotions with other businesses as well. Well, “6" meant buy one get one free Whoppers. So, my late best friend and I went there and bought 2, and got 2
