Brad, can you give us a little more back round into your association with the automotive world exactly? From what you put out it sounds like you’re a few years fresh out of college rolling around in a second hand car. This site was made for people with actual automotive passion, or a deep connection and understanding

Let this be a lesson.....Drive the damn thing from CO to NV, properly enjoy it.

I knew about this project a little over a decade ago, yet, even at that, it was table scraps of information and two blurry photos from sites like mulasannescorner.com . When the Carrera GT came out, they had talked about the evolution of the engine, and the aborted LMP project it was to go in, but up until a few years

Hold up, when did we go from Crack Pipe to No Dice? smdh.....

Why thank you!

No no, I like the ocean idea. feeds fish and solves the sidewalk shitting issue

Good thing I knew about the 917/20 way before the internet got a wind of it ;)

I’m one of the few that was well has stuck around for well over a decade (although the barrage of Elon Musk posts is making me inch my way to the door myself) 

I suggested the 917/20, but I’d like to know what your list would consist of if this is horrible. There isn’t enough time to list all the beautiful race cars out there, but it’s a good start, and maybe they’ll do a sequel to give you a chance to fix the list.

I have so many, but I’ll take the high road and pick a car that was considered ugly, but so ugly, it’s actually beautiful, and is now an iconic car in Porsche History.

Slide 13: “For some reason, early motorsport really loved making drivers race with passengers.”

I’ve been a part of the Jalopnik community for over a decade, and it’s a damn shame what it’s become. I’m not someone who runs around praising Musk, in the end he is a billionaire, but what one isn’t honestly a bad guy, you don’t make that kind of money through honest means. But man, tell me the office is full of

Fiesta and Focus ST’s (FiST’s and FoST’s) are the new Dodge SRT4. an American economy car hopped up by the manufacturer, and most owners are young or broke people wanting 400hp using ebay parts and trying to get by with the cheapest of tunes, then wonder why the engine popped, causing the car to have a bad rap of

Okay, this. Why do I always see some of the fattest drivers in cars lightened to the extreme, like in Drag racing. congrats, you acid dipped your chassis, added a lithium battery and light weight panels, but you couldn’t say no to two big makes and a large fry before heading to the track. Save some weight and years on

$1,600 is a steal for a composite roof, compared to my ‘17 Focus ST (which also fits the RS) composite roof from Seiban is about $2,400. Not including shipping, not including the labor costs to remove the windshield and rear hatch, carefully removing the roof via grinding the spot welds, and then installing the roof

Jalopnik journalists have the collective age that’s less than enough for them to acquire an AARP membership, they’re all freshly out of college with the new age college rhetoric of everyone is okay until they do one thing I don’t like, and are now the worst person since Hitler. Jalopnik USED to be a proper car site,

Agreed

Colonizer is the new “it” word.....

No one besides me wanted to touch them when I was a tech at GM (2013-2016) Then again, I was hourly, and for some odd reason, the Allante owners had money and said “whatever it takes” So I’d go through them with a fine toothed comb.

GM has a rich history of getting something right, and only doing it for a year or two. See the 1988 Fiero, when you finally stop listening to the bean counters.
