Q: Hit it with the Ugly Stick?

The vertical stabilizers continue to make me very, very angry — because they make cars look very, very ugly. I know that's not what racing is about.

But still.

Um, NOT beautiful. Just not. Kind of a mess, in my opinion. And I'm a BMW owner.

Not a terrible looking car. But nothing really coherent about the design. Lots of 'cladding' that feels kind of Bangle-y. Like maybe if Bangle put together a body kit for a Mustang.

1,620 gallon payload. 13,500 lbs. of retardant.

Blah blah blah, rich guys' cars catching fire.

Should be said: Porsche didn't call the 1972 911 a Carrera. And Singer's reinvented 911s are a whole lot more than just a resto-mod.

That doesn't look like Willow Springs Raceway to me. Maybe the little track, Streets of Willow?

Just one correction, since I'm "the guy with the great garage and the Singer 911." Thanks for the compliment on the garage, but the car is not a Singer 911. I think their cars are awesome (and am a friend of the founder, even), but my car existed in its current (Frankenstein, Lego-like) form for many years before…

Lots of talky-talk in that clip. What do those guys actually DO?

Lap times?

For a prototype, it is surprisingly easy to drive. In that sense, you can tell it's in the late-80s Porsche family. No drama shifting. Light. Lots of power, without being on-off-whoa!-shit!-935 scary. Loads of mechanical grip (and in that sense, it's not like a street car at all). But it really is a car that…

Porsche 962. October of 2010. On the short track at Willow Springs. It was fun.

Yeah. I'm trying to get my head around the part where a detective is unable to apprehend the carjacker — when they carjacked HIS CAR?

Jack, you're a new writer on a network show that isn't going to be around for all that long. I know you want to be quirky, but now more than ever you want to dress like a normal person and drive a normal person's car. You do want to keep moving up the ladder in TV, right? So use your loan-out corp to lease a black…

One, that's a stout freakin' ramp. Two, people who hold up Ipads to video (and block other people's views) at public events probably deserve to have the things knocked out of their hands.

But that's exactly it. It's like the crazy old guy who shouts at the kids on his lawn. Except now the old guy is out on the grass doing bench presses and pretending he's relevant. I wish he would go inside.

I know I'm in the minority. But the styling of that car does not do it for me at all. It's an engineering tour de force. But it's also one very ugly car.

Race 'em; break 'em; fix 'em; repeat.

Magnus is both a true rock star of the early 911 world and also a genuinely nice guy.
