Ken Squire, who was a NASCAR pit reporter in the 1980s and ‘90s, hails from Vermont and showed up at last year’s Milk Bowl.

FTFY

Are you sure its seagulls?

The now Governor of VT is a veteran of the track. He won the 1996 and 1998 Late Model Series championships and the 1997 and 1999 Milk Bowls. Pretty cool.

It’s just a measurement for comparison now. Kind of like horsepower. Last I checked I didn’t see 485 stallions under my hood.

See now why couldn’t we have had James May run for president. I don’t care if he’s a Brit. I would have still voted for him.

The area under the rear glass and behind the seats ceases to be a dead space. It’s now just a hinged shelf that can be removed and that space utilised. The change in profile also increases space; the slope from the back of the roof to the rear of the car is now a straight line, instead of having a notch. The hatch is…

To be fair, most jalops don’t buy anything new.

Wagons, period. And don’t give me that “crossovers are wagons” bullshit because NO THEY ARE NOT. Would you tell your child medicine is candy? No, because then they’d take too much and die, just like wagons are nowadays.

They’re gunna build the greatest car. Really, you should see it, the greatest greatest car. And! Tesla will pay for it. I promise you that.

That’s true. Cheaper buy-in, easier to have fun.

Flush mounted headlights weren’t legal in the US until 1984 (the Lincoln Mark VII was the first car to have them) so hidden and pop-up headlights were a way for designers to have a sleek looking car and still meet US headlight regulations.

My 1999 NB chassis was vastly more rigid than the Jackson Racing supercharged 1994 NA I had previously driven. The NB also added a glass rear window and offered and extra level of overall refinement. 2001+ NB had additional underside chassis bracing and a VVT engine requiring premium fuel.

Enhance X2!

you have done a great thing!

I learned all about the frit when I was building a custom fastback for my car. The rear glass was a bear. The first one was made from a custom cut RV windshield. It shattered during the build. The second one was made again from a custom cut RV windshield, and I used a special “frit paint” along the edge. The…

They had to keep their cars cool, see, because they had just pulled over...MORGAN FAIRCHILD! Yeah, that’s the ticket!
