The longer this went on, the less it seemed like a hypothetical scenario.

I bought my last car new in 2015 with a stick; haven’t seen anything that made me want to give it up. This might do just that, but also, it might not be what I want, even with a stick. Manual gets me in the door; driving experience gets me to leave with the car.

Oh dang! I can’t wait to go test drive one!

Plum Crazy anyone?

It looks like a Lancia Ypsilon, but somehow...worse.

I can pretty much guarantee this is a result of my age, but when someone says “Corvette”, my first mental image is that of a C4, specifically with the concave rear fascia. (Which I will always consider more attractive than the convex introduced in ‘89-’90.)

Ineed, Chevrolet was kicking butt in those days not only with the C4 but the 3rd gen Camaro as well. You can always tell somebody’s age when they crap on the performance capability of those cars compared to the competition in those days.

I think people tend to forget how much of a world-class performer the C4 was. The SCCA eventually banned the car for a short time period as it completely dominated the Showroom Stock class after it’s introduction, which directly lead to the Corvette Challenge series.

I used to be selected for jury duty every year or two and they’d bring me as far as they could without having to discount me from selection for seven years. Finally, in comments as to why I shouldn’t be selected for jury duty, I wrote that I go by my own code which may or may not coincide with the law written to…

Rob over here ruining another one of my days this week.

Ahhh, where to begin. Honestly, it mostly comes down to his attitude. And I don’t just mean the guy’s a dick, that’s almost to be expected at the highest level of any sport. Unlike many other sports out there, motorsport in particular puts you in a place that is very dangerous to you and those around you.

When I was little, I used to refer to playing with my Matchbox and Hotwheels as simply just “playing cars”. That’s what FH is to me. It’s playing cars. Like the same kind of fun that I had as a kid. I can do pretty much what I want in there on my own time and in my own way. As you note, the price of entry is cheap.…
