I would drive my 2010 RX-8 today in celebration, but it’s in the shop getting its engine rebuilt. It had about 100k miles before needing the rebuild.

That part wasn’t about Austin it was a general statement about LMP3 drivers. 1) Not all LMP3 drivers are “entry level” 2) Austin is driving an LMP2

“Rust. I need a car that treats oxidation like I treated internet pr0n when when I was 15. I need it all the time, and there is never enough. I want to see so much rust, wrought iron restoration experts put me on a most wanted list. I want so much rust, my parents are concerned about heavy metal poisoning.” - David…

So it’s a hole in one?

I only ask for three things:

If Allison Robicelli did this she probably would have used a better grading scale than cooking time and something as subjective as taste between completely different types of pizza.

The answer my friend is blowing on the wind.

Tesla sold more Model 3s than Volkswagen did last year. You can check my math, it’s true.

What inside knowledge? 

Pretty much none. I don’t eat enough deep fried food on a regular basis to justify a fryer, and I’ve seen too many burned faces on others to fuck around with a pot of boiling oil on the stove. The upside is when I do have fried food when I’m out, back in the before times when we could go outside, it feels more…

First, I drink 5 beers. Not 4, not 6, 5 is the perfect amount. Then I use my time driving to catch up on social media. Sometimes I grab a slice of pizza, because it soaks the beer up nicely. It’s hard to eat pizza, drive with your knees and hold your phone, but I’m the best driver anyone has ever seen so it’s ok.

The self-reflection that I am not a good driver. If you don’t acknowledge your faults, you can never begin to get better.

Two words:  situational awareness.  I wish more people had it.

I heard Lucas is getting into the EV component business...

1st: You can’t think that Tesla’s regulatory credits is going to be a long term revenue source and think that the whole market is moving to EVs. Those things contradict each other. Tesla needs to figure out how to make money selling cars before the behemoths enter the EV market in full force.

1st Gear: Side gig, nothing, this IS their business. While I personally view Musk as a clown, Tesla has gotten into the position where it gets paid to exist by its competition.

Anyone who doesn’t think Tesla is Full Self Driving™ is a pedo.

Similar to my solution for getting the paving project done in a timely fashion (i.e. paying someone else to do it), I wonder if TVR wouldn’t be better off contracting Magna, Multimatic, or another firm build the first run of cars... that way cars will actually get built and delivered to customers “next year”.
