Subbing for the inevitable “Slams Compilation.”

I was ok with your lack of preparation until you show up in the video without a coat. Given the reliability of rating, I’d have all kinds of emergency gear in the back.

I use a Merker 178 and Personna Platinums.

Best news I’ve heard all year!

I thought Kinja proclaimed 2016 marked the death of the Hipster. That means the beards are coming OFF! Shouldn’t we be talking about clean shaving?

If he was building the garage from reclaimed materials, he’d get a little street cred from me. But, no, its some shitty particle board, vinyl clad monstrosity.

I’m going with the guy in my town that bought one and used the argument that he was doing a solid for the planet and consequently shouldn’t be penalized for not taking out construction permits on the garage he was building for the car.

Alternator swaps are going to continue to be a bitch.

Well done, Tarvish. I didn’t see the LS swap coming! I thought this was going to be the tired 996 post with 3/4s of the space dedicated to the bearing issue.

...and that idiotic street racing TV show is still on the air.

Turbotimer on an 02 WRX FTW.

Did you “notice” the neons the morning after a dose of Ambien?

As much as the Polo R has dominated WRC since its intro (won it’s first stage AND it’s first rally AND its first constructor’s championship) — it easily has THE WORST retail version of any WRC car in the series right now.

This shit does nothing for Lewis’ appeal as an outsider kid racing go karts on a shoe string. All it takes is a personal $10M recording studio and songs about all “my diamonds” to make Nico look like the poor kid from the ghetto of Monte Carlo.

Just re-read this. Demoralized? Weaker? I feel like I need to remind you that we are talking about a German running German team with the likely #2 driver being a German. Those descriptors are N/A.

That had more to do with the supply system. The wing came off Webber’s car because Seb damaged his. I think that is perfectly fair in a 1/2 driver scenario. Where it crosses the line to me is when they plan to slow the 2nd car.

Loved mine. What a pleasure to work on. And with parts so cheap, I spent many weekends just replacing stuff for the fun of it. Ball joint? $14. Power steering pump rebuild kit? $10. I handed mine off to a fellow enthusiast with 283k on the clock.

The idea that the #2 driver has an inferior car is ludicrous. You have to give them equivalent machines. You can’t intentionally detune a car or make it slower. If you make it known during contract signing that a driver is #2, they should have no room to complain or become demoralized.What if #1 makes a mistake? The…

Fair point. All the more reason to pick a #1 driver.
