I was not smart when I was in my 20s and screwed my credit for a few years. At one point I was still making payments on my race car (that’s dumb enough right there) while going out and buying a super-practical street car (MR2 Turbo). I was just keeping my head above water when I blew the motor on the race car and had…

he listed the car—which came with the original keys and title, as well as the remains of the former owner—to eBay and sold it to someone in England for $23,300.

While he sounds like a real a-hole, I’m more irritated at the people watching him.

I just jumped into 40deg water this weekend and made sure to have a few friends on standby just in case. Really cold water can do some things to ya.

I dunno. That’s all good, but there’s something super fun about splashing in puddles (muddy or not).

Solid advice. I stuck a piece of tape on the tach at 5K for the one NASA enduro we ran that car in.

I removed all the wiring from my spec car and built a new loom by hand (removed 25lbs of wire), so I never ran into electrical issues. I’ve seen some racers get DME issues, so we all had spares on hand. I also had a late-model 944 (1985.5+), so not sure if those were any better.

From somebody who has built 5 race cars: buy somebody else’s race car. The only reasons I kept building my own is because I could spread the cost over time and only had myself to be angry at if something wasn’t done well.

I thought that was more like, 2017 Andretti:“Alonso can drive our car,” while this sounds like, 2019 McLaren:“Right turns only? How hard can it be?”

This seems like something you’d just partner with an established Indy team on instead of trying to do it yourself for your first time at the biggest race of the year. Have your team watch and learn how the pros do it, then do a bunch of testing, then a low-stakes race.

Especially since the photo from inside shows the plane not far from the hole. It almost dropped straight down.

Exact same... except Papaya.

What an eh-hole.

There’s always somebody.

What an eh-hole.

To figure this out, we’ll assume that the average Mirage owner drives their car 15,000 miles per year (that’s the annual mileage the EPA assumes when it writes its annual Fuel Economy Guides)

Same with the 944s (mentioned but not pictured).

That’s Hedley!

My view will would only contain about 5 people.

I got nothing else. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see which way this shakes out.
