It appears that you farted at the end of that video and then looked into the camera to acknowledge said fart.

Chump Car?

He is obviously upset because he didnt get the Crosscab.

Saying that John Michael Hoda witnessed the crash is a bit of a misnomer, as he was practically a participant. When the Enzo hit the Jersey barrier on Interstate-95 in Stamford, Connecticut, a carbon fiber spray tore across his Lexus, scratching up his hood. The Enzo, one of only 399 ever made, dragged ass-backwards…

I see your 767 and raise you a 787B lapping Circuit de la Sarthe.

Strange mistake. Doug is obsessed with random president knowledge. Big miss!

August 7, 1968: IT IS RESOLVED THAT President Nixon is doing a superb job of managing this great nation. FURTHER, BE IT KNOWN that the Volkswagen Karmann-Ghia is the pinnacle of automotive design and shall forever be understood as the finest vehicle of the modern era. THUSLY, IT IS HEREBY ENACTED THAT ALL HEADLIGHTS…

As with any race, but especially at Le Mans, if you can't finish the race it doesn't matter how fast you are.

Start looking at this figure in other cars. As I said above, it's often quite low in small cars. The original Insight was under 300 lbs!

Note what it lists for the maximum combined weight of occupants and cargo: 419 lbs. That's not a lot at all. I weigh about a buck-fifty, and my driving partner was right around 220 or so, and neither of us would be considered particularly large people, but we were within a mere 50 lbs of the limit. That's odd, right?…

What about the Olds 88. It has the year 1988 in the name!

Have you noticed any pieces shared with VWs? I have to imagine a few things under the hood say VWAG on the side.

Of course! I have a lot of road racing experience. We live right down the street from Road Atlanta, after all. But how often do you get the opportunity to drag race a Ferrari?

Fantastic advice. We were all talking about how a decent driver, even one with a good amount of road race experience, is at a total loss when it comes to drag racing. I knew I didn't get the run down perfect, but it just seemed crazy that I left an entire second or more on the table. Thanks for the advice. I…

I'm curious, as you seem to know a lot more than I. What kind of times do you think are possible with a car trapping around 90mph? is there an online calculator somewhere? I brought the Miata in the video and could never get the launch down right. Car trapped each time around 90MPH, but my best time was 15.66, so I…

For sure! And you never know, someone here may know someone selling a decent condition scout. There used to be one parked in the same spot for years near me sometimes with a for sale sign. I haven't driven by that street in a while. I will swing by next time I head that direction and see if it's for sale still.

Why dont you just have your local friend call him back from his (presumably) local phone number?

I figured as much for the engine. But, what about the DCT compared to the 6MT? Those dual clutches are heavy!

Very cool. I worry this would ruin the balance of the car, though. The 1M was a perfect lightweight (relatively) handling car. I worry that adding in a ton of power and a lot of extra weight up front would ruin the feel of the car. Just like everyone making monster V8 Miatas. Sure, they sound wonderful and have tons…

A female friend with a Jeep Wrangler taught me during freshman year of college. Great car to learn on. Very forgiving.
