Track days at HPT FTW. For KC Jalops who don't know, HPT hosts Touring Club track days and it's CHEAP for as much driving as you get, and just about anything is allowed to drive. You too can find out how fast your brakes will fade into nothing!

There are nice truckers out there. I had THREE Consolidated Freightways rigs stop to put out the fire on my father's truck one night. They damn near locked up their brakes stopping, and all three truckers came running as fast as they could with fire extinguishers. Wiring issue in the dash. The dash was toast but

This! Volvo dealer told me that and I laughed in his face.

I've seen both the 328 and 507 in person, and there are AMAZING. Pictures do not do them justice, but I guess that's probably true of most cars.

Is the Ferrari six times faster than the Vette too?

Commodore 64, in 1984 or 1985. Can't remember which; memory is a bit hazy. Saved up FOREVER to buy it on layaway. Remember layaway? As a 12 or 13-year-old that kind of money was hard to come by. I mowed a lot of yards, took care of a lot of neighbor's pets while they were away, and other odd jobs. Originally had

Caswell could probably go faster if it weren't for the camera rig hanging off of the back...

Loved the louvers on my '81 Celica.

I might actually be able to talk the wife into this one, what with Chris Hemsworth in it. She's a big fan of Thor, for obvious reasons.

Yeah, I tend to start giggling in those situations. You should hear me on a roller coaster.

I think they might be done with them for now, as iTunes lists the entire season of ten episodes available for a paltry $29.90 for the HD version.

I'm always harping to my 7-year-old to be very careful opening the car door so it doesn't hit the car next to us, and have been harping too her since she was old enough to open the door herself. If it's a particularly sticky situation (on a grade, windy, etc), I'll tell her I'm going to open the door for her. It's

I'm out!

Holy balls yes. Recently put them on my car as well and had the same revelation.

Houndstooth: Yes!

I watched the whole damn thing and laughed at EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.

Or he might have concealed his plates for the run.

From personal experience, I can tell you that a Beech Baron can execute a barrel roll quite well, and while that didn't make me afraid of flying, it made me afraid of flying with that pilot.

HELL YES!

The only way to know is to monitor that oil level yourself. I watched mine like a hawk after I bought the car (with only 12K miles!), thinking the odds of getting a bad motor were pretty slim. It was fine at first but eventually ended up using 1 quart in 600 miles, so it was pretty clear something was up. Took it
