Elcipse has been dead since 2000, when all you could get was an over weight, underpowered FWD car, made worse by the last gen that was overpriced, poorly built, and once again only FWD. 263 horses sounded awesome in 05' until you realized at about 25-28k, you were about to step in Evo territory

914's are awesome, and about 10 years ago, 914's and 944's were peanuts, but considering they are a couple of the only entry level Porsches to get now, they are now sought after, plus racing 914's can fetch those prices. Revs Institute has a 914 that ran an 86 hour endurance race at Nurburgring , finishing 1-2-3 with…

Soooo....About that Saab cemetary, care to fill us in with what treasures sit there?

I compare racing to sex. I’d rather go 24hrs. straight then 4 seconds at a time 😎

First off, love me some F-2A’s (love using that in Ace Combat) secondly, that symbol on the F-15 is fucking gorgeous. Air sueriority aside, Japan is still a bit away from China should a conflict begin (especially near the Diaoyutai island, which would certainly wrap Taiwan in it, an Asian Cremia/Ukraine situation…

We’ll just do what America does best, blow loads of money and make even better artificial islands out there, then station some Marines and Navy ports to give a big American eagle eating a cheesesteak and deep fried butter fuck you to them.

You know what could of allowed us to keep China in check more, if we would of acknowledge Taiwan (and Taipei the Capital of China) as a country, considering we flew U2 sorties over China from there, and trained many Taiwanese to fly them, but nah, we’ll make a deal with a country whos very government style was what we…

One story is not enough, the internet DEMANDS more stories, because that is one big pile of are you fucking kidding me and my tax dollars

Michael, in exchange for some sweet Jalopnik stickers, and a burger, I’d be willing to come up there and turn a wrench on it for two reasons, because you gotta be safe driving it, and because I have a wierd intrest in wanting/seeing a Yugo. Think it over...

Yes, Kudzu Mazda team ran a rotory at Le Mans for several years after 1991, won their class one year and did well, but they changed uo the rules to not allow it to have a fighting chance for overall

Because your American arch rival has a $400,000 mid engine car that has sold out, and is claiming the Corvettes territory in endurance racing. Considering the cars have to be a “production car” to race in the GT class, and as has been said for a while now that they’ve pretty much pushed a FR setup to the absolute…

787B used this setup as well, though was a lot more analog:

Just bought NiGHTS Christmas for my Sega Saturn while in Japan. I forgot how good Yuji Naka and the Sonic Team made musice for the Genesis/Saturn/Dreamcast. It’s only a demo, but repeat playing and playing a matching game unlocks content like a karaoke version of the main theme song and even can play as Sonic the…

Its hard to say, stands are never remotely full, and Daytona did something brilliant by swapping all the color seats around to make it look like a crowd is there. America will never grasp endurance racing like we do NASCAR or even Indy

I was at the race this and last year. As they were saying on the broadcast here, this was one of the biggest crowds in a long time. There was a swarm of people there rockin Du Pont jackets from 1995. The flea market literally had boxes of little model cars of Jeff Gordon. To say this race wasn’t a stage to promote a…

I believe Mario andretti did the driving, and a Hennessey Viper came second at 205mph

Oh absolutely. As rich as they are, they seem quite stupid to realize that wealth doesn’t turn you immortal, and you can’t take cash with you when you die. Hit a billion, charity the rest, be on the good side of history, instead our greedy ways are purposely making people who know damn well whats going on act like…

Except LBJ worked with Martin Luther King, which switched Democratic/Republican stance on issues.

History repeats itself my good man. A civilization grows and thrives, to a point where it is the highest amongst others, then either a greedy king who wants to flaunt his wealth, or paranoid group suddenly feel like its grasps is slipping. Eventually the civilzation falls beyond hope, and those who rulled are…

Just need to go to AAA and give them the info. Just going to say you are not prepared to drive there unless you’ve driven a mail truck here. I had to drive three hours to Mt. Fuji, and although the highway isn’t bad, going down country roads is the tricky part, plus wipers/turn signal stalks are on opposites sides, so…
