Oh for sure 2020s are better in every way, including handling, I just meant it was slow and had a lot of mass, which should make things less hectic and make me less of a factor, respectively. My lack of experience surely made a difference too—the last time I had been on the back of a bike was my uncle’s cruiser and he…

How is this even possible? I had to ride home 2 up with my roomie one night in college and we nearly went off the road a bunch of times from balance issues—and he was a 6'4" 260 lb offensive lineman on a 500lb ‘80s bike (I was about 185).

Did anyone think to check the back seat for Henry Winkler?

Now, $8 billion is not nothing

Great point in the opening line. Appreciation of brakes is something that separates people with real experience from the pretenders. For all the kiddos just getting into driving fast around a road course, look at brakes and tires first, then start working on your dreams of huge horsepower. Bradley is doing things in…

Legend.

Seems like an obvious solution would be to tax mileage on all vehicles to support infrastructure and tax gasoline to support efforts at electrification, so I give that kind of idea a 0% chance of getting any traction.

Do you think it’s possible the Haas livery is a subtle nod to Herbie?

I get just the very slightest whiff of the old Dominos cars from CART off the Alpine.

This is what it looks like every damn time I try to grill a nice F1 car. Just can’t do it. That or it ends up totally raw.

I had no idea Acronis did security, I just know of them as the company that makes badass drive cloning software you can use free if you have a WD hard drive attached to your computer (including via USB).

Seriously, if the shape is what David loves, he should splash the panels and mold new ones to put on something built from the ground up. I did basically this project on a house and it was a bad choice. There would be much less effort involved to build something new, salvaging or splashing for molds whatever you can…

Shame about that DQ for crossing the center line.

There’s always a waiver, and yet organizers still always need to buy expensive insurance because people will sue anyway if things go bad. I am wondering whether something can be done on a governmental level--like if they local government itself is hosting, then it has the resources in case it gets sued and it can put…

Yep, and clearly a thriving auto enthusiast community (I lived there 20 years and experienced it first hand). I realize that tracks are expensive to own and maintain, liability is a major issue, etc, but I think there is real potential benefit to the community if smart people can figure out a way to make it happen.

My mom has the non-redline Vue with the Honda V6. She loves it and it’s a really responsive, decent drive. Transmissions are a weak point, though, so I would want to know the history.  A couple of things that might not occur to you browsing this article: 1) The steering geometry is decidedly non-Ackerman and you’re…

It’s the reflection of the windshield.

This stuff needs to stop, but I think there are solutions to be offered that will be more effective than punishment or even social pressure. I like the idea of making it easier for people to get their speed fix in controlled situations away from the public—high speed driver’s ed, run-what-you-brung nights at drag…

Frankly I think that trailer it’s on is a better starting point.

I had a Dodge Omni GLH Turbo, which is a much more interesting and fun sibling, and I would not pay that much for a GLH Turbo in this condition. CP.
