The captain wants your weight!

old setup:

in beige it always struck me as very Enterprise-D

Le Mans 24 could stand in for the hypothetical Monaco scenario. The ACO has much sway in the rules because they run Circuit de la Sarthe.

Same here. If you want to actually follow the race it’s better on TV.

My favorite is the supercar road trip to France in a Ford GT, Zonda, and F430. They go into the raison d’etre of the category while also showing the impracticalities. I think it’s also the first time May drives fast.

Well, he’s a chemical engineer. His lane is analyzing the fuel, oil , or coolant.

Surprising lack of Daytona Prototype.

The EV converted DSs I’ve seen require another smaller electric motor to run the hydraulic system. Except for parking it would be a terrific city car.

Obligatory:

If it’s a timing belt it was most likely replaced due to age. The water pump may as well be replaced since I’m sure it’s only accessible after taking off the belt.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this a couple years ago. Shelby fans may be disappointed because, as mentioned, this book is like 90% Morton’s autobiography and 10% about Shelby, but I like Morton and his approachable writing style.

There’s also a brief scene after the opening credits with Bond in a DB5 and Onatop in an F355.

well, that triggered a memory:

for some reason people think all Integras were DC2 Type Rs.

I don’t think it was a fad, OEM wheels were small for fuel economy and to fit high profile tires for ride quality. People usually bought bigger wheels as their first mod.

The zipline should go all the way up the hill, getting to the Turn 1 stands is a bit of a slog.

Keep it on the track....which is the road

Even Roger Moore said Bond was the worst spy ever, “Every barman knows his name.”
