Reminds me of when I used to autocross at the Houston police academy many years ago. The organizers we constantly telling us to not walk on the grass and definitely don't pile your floor mats and spare on the grass or the cops would freak. Then imagine my dismay watching a squad car drive into the field next to the…

My 7 year old daughter was at first a little upset when she found a small container of her PlayDoh in my toolbox. After I described how I use it in the garage and that I wasn't just stealing her PlayDoh to make fake poop she was fine with it. Now she sometimes offers to donate more to me from her personal stash. …

I'm hardly a pro when it comes to snow and ice seeing as how I live in Houston. But modern vehicles with that use a transfer case without a diff have to turn off the yaw control when switched to 4wd. Modern yaw control is amazingly good, I drove a Titan years ago on an empty stretch of black ice and I simply could…

Yeah that's the one place I have to give the kid credit. A lot of people would have just started turning the wheel and absolutely screwing any chance they had to get the car to hook back up and make the turn. This is all second nature for a rally driver, but for a navigator who can't feel the wheel it can be…

I can't totally agree with #1. I used to have a '23 T-Bucket with a 351C and a very high stall converter. While driving a friend home in an unfamiliar area I romped on the gas for half a sec or so, then immediately saw the cop... He was going to get me for excessive acceleration, but I calmly explained the high…

Don't get me wrong, I'd pick a turbo over a supercharger any day but the Hp from a turbo is hardly free. When my 87 RX-7 turboII still had the stock twin scroll turbo with straight exhaust you could really feel the difference. The exhaust shell rib that separates the exhaust into two parallel streams going around…

Surely I wasn't the first to think of this...

If I were rich, that would be me. I don't like other people touching my car and I certainly don't like paying other people to touch my car. Besides, he probably only went there cause he drove through something nasty and wanted to hurry up and wash it off.

By driving Pikes Peak, I assume you mean race. If so then how do you plan on getting your race car there? A wagon? An El Camino? Seriously, by the time you have a vehicle with enough ass to pull a trailer up to the start line you may as well get a pickup truck. The vast majority of the racers I've met all have…

Omg it's Bill C!! He's my buddy in Lubbock! Unfortunately he had to sell his beloved place quite a while back. Now he owns and runs an AM oldies station in Lubbock and is the morning DJ. The guy is crazy smart, and crazy to boot!

Damn straight.

Wow, the guy on the left is scared shitless. The guy on the right is wishing he had his safety glasses. And the guy in the middle figures that a shard of metal can't possibly go all the way through the guy on the left.

You got your 70's lemons mixed up, that was the Pinto. Which would be a great choice if they had a suicide bomber in the movie. But seriously, the exploding Pinto has be done to death, I like their choice of malaise era henchmen.

Her? Unlikely. But like the Avantime she would be useful for a family picnic.

I really thought you were being sarcastic at first, but it appears that you and several others are quite serious. Different strokes I guess.

@dmoon: As a Bugeye owner that kinda hurts, not untrue, but it still hurts. I find it kinda strange that something so negative sounding as "duckface" would include so many cool cars.

That is horrible. Really horrible.

@CobraJoe: "They ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles

Kids nowadays. If he'd only taken his time to reinforce the truck and practice driving he could have taken out sooo many more cop cars.

So far everyone is leaning on the lifted truck. But to me only the ridiculously lifted and meticulously detail one's are sometimes BroMobiles.
