Pretty sure all ECUs can handle pulling timing if the recommended octane isn’t available. The engine won’t be happy and won’t perform at it’s peak power but it won’t go kaboom though there are many NASIOC posts from people that think it will.

I will have to assume it’s a turbo swap so wouldn’t it need premium? I know it can survive on 87 but it’s not going to be pleased about it.

In case you want to relive some memories.

True but target fixation is still a thing. Keeping locked onto the thing you don’t want to hit and it’s likely you’ll hit it.

Matches up with the conversation I had on my recent ambulance ride. Driver was cursing up a storm.

It’s pretty much just used for drifting as it’s pretty unsafe for road racing. They probably use a tractor with a rotary brush as well as a blower.

You could just ignore the judgmental people and do whatever the fuck you want. Most of my wardrobe is car related. I’ve been tracking cars for 15+ years, that happens.

Your sarcasm detector needs to be recalibrated.

No, No they don’t. Ignore it and it will never happen again...

This actually made me think since I’m normally dressed like the marshalls, I probably shouldn’t. Since I help with T&S as well as crew a car it could be confusing.

I give a thumbs up to all my friends when I’m properly dressed to be over the wall. That’s pretty much every racer out there.

I believe the pillow is a factory option. I don’t ever remember seeing one of these without some pillow on the driver’s seat. Might be because every one I’ve seen was owned by a little old lady. Even with the cushion all you could see from behind was knuckles and blue hair.

Lived 15 minutes from NYC most of my life and agree with his question. You don’t have to be a bigoted city dweller like yourself to dislike a place like NYC.

this would explain EDM’s popularity. Imagine if we still had dialup modems.

Youtube link for the lemans coverage is broken. :(

Seeing as jus this week I get a call from the FD saying there is an alarm going off in my house and they have to break in to secure my animals I have taken an interest in my smoke alarms. I’ve already experienced a fire in my house and lost a bunch of things. They’re just things, they can be replaced. I can’t replace…

Yet you are pushing the blame elsewhere. The dealership made the first move. People reported about it and some took it entirely too far.

I’m not sure you’d want to buy your daughter this truck. My brother used to own one, he had 2 ECU’s stacked installed because of how often they failed. Stuck on the side of the road with “room for activities” is not where I want my daughter to be.

So, where does drifting go? Figure skating?

I would so play a rabbi/mario crossover.
