All I had to do was read the headline and instantly I thought, “That happened in Winston Salem, didn’t it?”

But does it submarine?

This is a glorious treasure directly from the Lord.

So... I guess he did it all for the woody. (COME ON!)

It took me a moment, but then my brain pulled out of Cars & Coffee. Have my star.

Well now how the hell else is he supposed to catch them damn Duke boys?!

You are going straight to hell.

Or... he could just retire, maybe?

You didn’t say stock part. You said Toyota part. And the fact of the matter is, if it’s developed and built by a division of Toyota, it’s a Toyota part. Whether or not you and I can purchase it on the open market makes no difference as to whether or not it was made by the manufacturer in question.

Hey hey now, don’t be insulting trash fires by comparing them to Nemesis.

How do you come up with “engine built by Toyota = no Toyota parts”?

But... why the Xfinity series? I want to see the Wins- er, Next... um, Sprin... nope, the Monster Cup version racing against the Mustang and the Camaro next year.

While that is mostly true, Toyota Racing Development does in fact build engines for the Toyota NASCAR teams.

Adam Bloom in Winston-Salem, you say?

While it is indeed vexing, and while it would be nice for them to have actually given a shit about legal legitimacy, there is a certain point at which you have to say, “Well, it IS a movie for kids,” and recognize that kids don’t give a good goddamn about how the legal system works in the Pixar Multiverse.

Well, one would assume that if the engine is built from the ground up by Toyota Racing Development, then it could fairly be considered to be chock full of Toyota parts, regardless of whether said parts are available to you and me.

While this is a good and accurate take, and while car manufacturers can pry my AUX input from my cold, dead hands, I still appreciate your original take on CDs, especially mix CDs. It creates a perfect 75 minute block of music tailored to specifications that you painstakingly created, and while this can be replicated…

Oh, be quiet pal. You were just... shall I say... too BORING?!

In fairness, the engines in the Toyotas actually ARE built by Toyota Racing Development.

So all NASCAR is willing to give us is body on tube frame “stock” pickup racing, but Europe gets this AND it’s FIA sanctioned?
