Actually, the host will be, you guessed it, literally everyone in the world but Frannk Stallone. (Leaving the Frank Stallone as the only remaining person to be a contestant)

Hire that octopus that bets on soccer matches or whatever it is that he does.

Tokyo Drift went under the hatchet a lot of times to become what it is. That’s one of the reasons why I love it. It’s distilled down to the purest form.

The original script was some fucked up “I Think I’m Turning Japanese”-lense view of Japan where guys drive cars through Shinto temples and woo geishas while bosozoku

Its truly odd seeing championship contenders qualify so badly.How many years since that kind of thing has happened?
BTW you totally got me with your headline.I thought for sure it would be Lauda v Hunt

I feel like Tokyo Drift gets a bad rap mainly because it doesn’t feature the original cast, but look what that did to the franchise. I’ve always found it to be an enjoyable movie, but the first will always be my favorite. I consider that a classic. 2 Fast 2 Furious is an awful movie but I am very nostalgic for it

And blaringly obvious but also sublime, The Green Parrot. I grew up in Miami and spend a lot of time in Key West, and I’d argue that not only is it the best bar in Key West, it’s also one of the best in the country. (That could be the homer in me talking, though.)

I personally feel Tokyo Drift is actually one of the stronger F&F entries. Where all the subsequent entries mostly feature completely over the top antics and were often incredibly overtly campy at points Tokyo Drift rooted itself on a somewhat more reasonable and relatable storyline, not pushing characters into

Same day shipping.

Key West is obviously drunk tourist central, but we had a lot of fun at two bars there that were not quite as blaringly obvious as the rest of them. One is General Horseplay, which is dark, sleek and doesn’t have every rum drink known to man on the menu — we left ourselves in the hands of the very attractive bartender

That list was an applicant bidding war for priority advertising. I like how everybody gets an “award” from their biggest suppliers.

Yeah, I got an electric impact for about $50 on sale at HF as my air gun died and it’s a hell of a thing for $50 and the extension cord is less of a PITA than an air line. I zip the nuts on just until the hammers engage, then finish with the torque wrench.

^^This. If you know your car, a rotation can be done in a hotel parking lot in about 45 minutes.

A lot of shops used to run “Buy 4 tires, get 5th tire free/half-off” specials because of this.

The guy who drove around with his high beams only for 3 weeks because he couldn’t replace a low beam headlight is very quick to condescend to “unskilled workers”.

Yup. Nothing so urgent there it needed to be done on the road. Or on a Sunday.

Secondly, lay off the condescending attitude towards entry level employees

Back in the day of universal full size spares, rotating with the spare wasn’t uncommon, and made sure it was always aired up and fairly recent. Doubt the tire shops minded selling 5 at a time either.

I usually give Jalopnik writers every benefit of the doubt, but I take a number of issues with this article.

I once rotated my tires in a parking garage during a blizzard so I could get better traction. If you car has a spare tire, you can put that on the first corner you remove until you have the last wheel to replace it with (which is how I’ve always rotated my tires). My current car doesn’t have a spare, but I have two

This. Also, I’ve never been on a road trip (especially through parts unknown) and thought to myself: “You know what I absolutely need right now? New brake fluid.”
