MiniBikes rule. They’re just the karts of the two-wheeled world.

Lmao. Do you think these women are getting the seat for free? Racing is never a charity. These were 18 women who were selected to be able to pay the series the money necessary to race in it. The fact that the author is decrying anyone in racing who was born with a silver spoon in their mouth fundamentally…
ehh, after seeing the video, it’s pretty straightforward what happened. the car hit a pretty big bump (relative to how stiffly sprung that car is) while trying to put down 630hp. it upset that chassis just enough, and the car immediately went hairy. there kind of wasn’t any saving that, beyond just not street racing…
why did the guy who threw the punch get banned? it was the other guy who rammed him off his bike, and he was suitably pissed and full of adrenaline when the other guy’s bike stopped. honestly, I feel he should have had no penalties applied to him.
It’ll be interesting to see how far she gets. I raced against her years ago when she first came stateside. I would say the financial backing she has is responsible for her progressing. She’s not the first driver to only get the seat because she could pay the bills. But, I was definitely quicker than her, and I’m a…
you don’t get it? most people are mentally 12 years old who love fantasizing about being murderous psychos. that’s pretty much all there is to it. that’s what we get when we grow up in a country that doesn’t blink an eye to any sort of graphical violence in films and TV, yet loses our collective mind if a nipple is…
repeat after me: “There are no sketchy parts of Austin.”
Side Bar right across from Barracuda, lmao. $3 mixed drinks that are made like a high school junior poured them. I hear you can also find cheap coke there, if that’s your thing. either there, or H Vegas.
no, don’t be coy. we need answers. for science.
WHOSE RUF CRT3 IS THAT IN THE SECOND TO LAST PHOTO?!??!?! WHAT?!?!?!
god...this is such a hideous car. I may get hate for this, but it just looks like a bloated and melted FR-S. wow, how did Toyota mess up so badly with this design? it’s like BMW entirely designed the car, and Toyota was told to just put different bumpers on it, if that makes sense. the Fiata doesn’t work in this way,…
dear Jalopnik:
Can you do a kart night in Austin? plz?...
Thanks,
Austin Jalops
Bowie’s bday, nice. if anyone reading this is in Austin, there’s a pretty killer Bowie tribute night happening at Barracuda on 1/11 (thursday) where The Sword (and a few other bands) will be playing Bowie tunes.
It’s really hard to tell from the grainy photo, but my gut is telling me it’s one of these. Could also be a Dakota from similar years.
isn’t this car essentially still a Ford Taurus?
Stop this nonsense and drive like an adult. Hands at 9 & 3 when driving, and you take one hand off when you need to shift. I’m an American, so don’t pull any excuses. The shifter is a control surface, not a resting place for your hand.
ah, great. the new 911 will be even heavier.
the 911 is dead, long live the Cayman.
by “caused a huge racial divide”, do you mean “gave a voice to unrepresented people of color”? cause that’s what I saw. he wasn’t out there screaming “kill whitey”, he was speaking as a black man who had to deal with racism in this country growing up, and who now had to deal with it as the nation’s leader. sorry, man.…
What? I’m not going to mince words with this one:
That’s an incredibly dumb way to look at it.
Ultimately, it is their fault, but people have generally kept those thoughts to themselves because they thought it would result in scornful reactions from the people around them. However, the President has been encouraging…
