This is what you find at a lot of non-NASCAR car events anyways. No one cares who’s gay, straight, black, white, asian, whatever. We’re there because we love motorsports. Unless you’re fucking in the bleachers, no one really cares about your preferences.

No, that’s an F-Body on a K1500 frame with big tires. When someone does that to an actual F-Body, we’ll give it some lifted chops. lol

Can we please not try to make Gs P each M a thing, Jason?

Twin Turbos? We don’t need no stinkin’ twin turbos. lol

You know, for what it’s worth, I really like watching Diesel Brothers.

Close enough. He overpaid for a Smart. That’s even worse. lol

You guys do realize you reported on a story that was released by Bild, right?

They wouldn’t close down the assembly line for that. Geez.

Perhaps. I thought that Fox Sports 1 took over the racing contracts, and Velocity became the bullshit channel.

*side note: And it played mostly races and non-stop Barrett Jackson. lol

I remember when Velocity was a good network that wasn’t just the gear head version of modern MTV with crappy reality shows. Oh yeah, it was called Speed Network back then.

You’re not likely getting blasted by an eighteen wheeler doing 70mph in the Bronx, though. :-)

We have mandatory “emissions checks” on our vehicles here that get performed every two years. Do they flag anything for the Christmas tree on the dashboard? Nope. Just so long as the SES or CEL aren’t illuminated, you’re good to go. Oh, and they don’t see any exhaust modifications when they run their mirror along

Has less to do with “manhood” and more to do with the fact that it gets crap fuel economy, it’s under powered, over bloated, and we have these things in the midwest called “tractor trailers” that don’t care if you get in their way while they’re doing 70mph. You’d be better off in a Toyota Corolla if you actually

This. This right here. I absolutely refused to be seen in public with it. REFUSED. I hated that it got parked in front of my house.

I feel like there should be a checkbox on the order form for this. And a disclaimer that the 20 pound space saver spare will kill the perfect 50/50 weight balance or something equally German. Of course, I don’t think anyone would NOT check it.

Nevermind. Didn’t read far enough. See tiny blurb about speakers. lol

Here’s one you missed. On BMWs (at least my E90), it’s piped in and not related to anything. If your seatbelt chime is going off, there’s no clicking. If there’s no other warnings, clicking. It’s purely a generated sound of familiarity not connected to anything. lol

I used to have fun in a 2005 Grand Prix with that. On long road trips, I’d wait for my friends to fall asleep, then change the instrument cluster to km/h. The face didn’t change, the needle just jumped up to 130. Then they’d wake up and freak out. lol
