I’ve had my share of driving jobs and most were great....particularly delivering parts to local shops for a local Napa store. Didn’t pay worth a crap, but a perfect part time gig for young me....driving all over town by myself, listening to the radio and shooting the breeze with the mechanics.   I also drove escort…

These things are rad. Never got them in my Halloween haul, but used to drink them in the summer all the time when it was scorching hot outside and we’d walk to the grocery store to steal baseball cards. If you hate these and their worrisome pain-in-the-back-of-your-throat flavor, you’re a damn commie.

I’m convinced a lot of you have mental health issues. Have you ever stopped to think that some of these candies are for the parents? When the palate goes from “wild and crazy” of youth to “mild brown gravy” of adulthood, we need a bone thrown to us as we shiver under coats, cold from the late October night.

“Sucrose Father” in an alternate dimension. 

I can usually idle my car in 1st or 2nd and just flow along with traffic if it’s slow. The trick is not to be right up the ass of the guy on front of you, which has you constantly braking and shifting.  

My Bugeye had a water cooled turbo. 

I drove my GTI in over a foot of snow once with snow tires. Indianapolis for the last few years has an aversion to plowing the interstates or salting or doing anything to mitigate the snowfall we get every year. I remember that year we had warnings the day and night before..yet when I got out to the interstate early…

My GTI has plenty of power.....in boost...but out of boost with the AC on, there are odd dips in power as the compressor cycles. 

There should be a plug a little higher than the trans drain plug where you add oil/fluid.

Thank Bob Rock for sending them in that direction.   How can anyone listen to Fade to Black or Orion and think anything after The Black Album could come anywhere close to the artistry and brilliance of even those two songs.     I had higher hopes when they hired Rick Rubin but the end result was better, but still…

You know what’s really killing the planet? Assholes. We could do with a lot less of just random ass people clogging up the roads, clogging up lines and queues, being indecisive in restaurant lines, being aggressive, entitled and mean...treating other people like garbage while not contributing anything meaningful to…

The road rage is getting crazy in Indianapolis too. Every other day there are reports of shots fired from cars at other cars. A guy I know got shots fired at his new WRX because he outran a Charger and the Charger owner couldn’t handle being bested. 

I come across those Harley riders all the time. Super loud exhausts and constant blipping the throttle. A. It’s not impressive B. Your bike isn’t fast C. Nobody cares. Then they usually have their stereo up so loud you can hear them coming from across town. Having loud exhaust and the constant screaming radio in your…

2015 Kia Forte. My girlfriend’s car. The one she had when I met her. Not terrible power, handled OK. That thing was a tank. It had the worst tires Walmart sold on it. We hydroplaned in Cincinnati and het the barrier. Slammed the trunk closed and drove (very slowly on backroads) home. Dented the side of the car some…

He’s not here to discuss anything.   Just spam the same shit over and over to push a narrative. 

Same. Just a couple weeks ago had $6500 in cash to buy a car in a bag in my car and was scared to death someone would try to snatch it.

I loved the Regal GS Turbo with the fancy Brembos and Haldex in the AWD versions....you could get 90% to the rear wheels on those. You could get the fwd in manual. Very cool.

Every time I see one on the road I do a double take.  They are awesome looking cars. I love the modern wagon profile.  Damn shame they didn’t sell like hotcakes. 

A friend of mine had one as a family hauler with the ecobeast...That big bastard ran like low 13s with a tune.

Clearly some people have never had the shit smacked out of them for acting out, so they think they can just do whatever at the behest of other people and get away with it. I’m a reasonable person and I try not to condone violence....but culture has become weaker overall having people being arrested for “assault” over…
