The driver is about 1 second behind the police cruiser. Most states require 2 seconds following distance, so the driver *is* following too closely.

Still, brake-checking someone is never a wise option. My guess is he was trying to cause a collision, knowing that in a rear-end collision, it’s pretty much automatic that…

Not much competition.

And the Miata’s competitors when it was introduced were...

No, they’re 2+2's, which is practically the same thing. Ever try to sit in the back seat of a ‘66 Mustang? Unless you’re less than 9 years old, it’s going to be painful.

They’ve only just broken the 1 million mark? Wow! I would have thought that would have happened LONG ago.

The little bugger came out in 1989, so that took about 27 years. The Mustang sold its 1 millionth car in 1966, only 2.5 years after its introduction.

I am underwhelmed.

1 - When disassembling something. Reinstall the fasteners into the threaded part. IMMEDIATELY. the not only keeps you from losing the fastener, but it keeps the fastener associated with the correct hole. Important for stuff like Ford smallblock waterpumps, where every fastener is a different length, and some are studs.

If I’m not in the car, it’s locked. Yes, even in the garage.

Oxi-Clean FTW.

You’re channeling Trump’s speech writer, aren’t you...

Yep — an obsolete airframe at the end of its service life can be cheap, since no one wants to buy it and actually put it into service.

Aluminum has no fatigue resistance, meaning every flight stresses the aluminum a little bit and it’;s not *quite* as strong as it once was. That means there are a certain number if…

Indy car is still a thing? I haven’t watched in years. Mostly because of BS like this.

All cosmetic options. Not a single bit of functionality can be changed.

Um, you might want to get out a bit more. It’s been as recent as last year.

Really? Which ones?

Not Christianity. Christianity has had plenty of atrocities committed in the name of God.

Just because you don’t experience the hatred personally does not mean it does not exist.

Easy, sell the full-sized cars, and have the toys/collectibles appraised. The valuable ones go to eBay and the others get donated to homeless shelters (the homeless have kids too,) churches, day-cares, etc...

Sorry — 2001. Brain fart.

This was the car I instantly thought of.

I just shared the track with several new GT350R’s, two ‘05 Cobra R’s, and one ‘67 GT350 (a real road-race version, not a street car,) last weekend at Texas World Speedway (it ain’t dead yet!) Great fun!

But if you want to buy one of the new 350R’s, you’d better have deep pockets. they’re selling for WELL over sticker…

Yes. Yes it is. But so is the fire department, the police, public roads... should I go on?

Capitalists are against socialism until its something they want.
