Have fun with that when a donut literally won't fit over the brakes. I know the Cobalt SS is like that, due to the Brembos.

Jack rear, put donut on. Jack front, swap full sized tires. I'm not sure you would need to do some sort of complicated rotation pattern just to limp the car somewhere on the donut, that seems silly...
Some cars out there will have a spare on a donut that physically won't fit over the front brakes, so that you're forced to do the shuffle to get a full size tire on the front.
Road America is holding it's last winter autox the weekend after the race would be there, so they are counting on it still be snowy then. There's just no way they could race there in early March. The first track day isn't scheduled until late April. I do a track day there in early May, and it's generally dicey on…
It would be awesome to get IndyCar back at RA, but a March race might require studded snow tires. They could be able to get away with plowing the track a few days before and hoping for sun to melt and dry the track, but it would be risky.
I have a little Sonic hatchback, and while it can hold 4 (I've even had 5, but no one was happy about it...) adults at once, in order to do so I end up riding shotgun in my own car. I'm the same height as my friend, but my legs are like 3 inches longer than his, so he sits closer to the wheel and the passenger behind…
So, I've read all of your articles, and for some reason I was sure your car was like, crossover/mini SUV size, even though that doesn't make sense since in my head everything is tiny in Japan. And then it finally clicked today that no, no it's a tiny Civic and completely adorable. I think the four doors was throwing…
Ohnonono, I can smell the burning clutch from the States... Eek.
Would also be a cool place to have everyone drop their "spotted!" pictures if you happen to see something cool out on the roads.
Ohh, as someone who lives in a wasteland of no C&Cs, I like this idea.
She said on the show she's wearing a suit, only Glory was dress shopping. I was really excited to see the dresses she was trying on were still floor length, since she's 6'3. I'm only 5'11 but I've never had a long dress actually be long enough before (I wore flipflops to prom in an effort to combat the shortness),…
A former roommate met Alan Cumming at a popular gay bar in Chicago a few years ago. He has multiple selfies with him, including one where he's (roommate) kissing his (Alan) cheek.
I would bet 99.9% that none of these guys are drivers. Drivers get RV privileges, tire changers get blankets and chairs.
Except they actually change the ignition on Cobalts, so that's completely wrong. Yes, they do then also put the plastic tab in your key. Cars weren't sitting at dealers lots for months waiting for VIN matched key tabs to come in, they were waiting on new switches.
It was a shortened yellow, so no open pits, since it was so close to the end of the race.
They were second, and right on the tail of 1st due to the caution. And their car was better on not-hot tires, so yeah, they could have had a good shot at winning.
...But it was on the net, right on the IMSA website...
Is it ok to speak up and want more time test driving? I'm used to the dealer just letting me and my dad take a car on our own to test drive. When I was off on my own a few years later (not the same dealer) I got to take a car on a like one mile lap and the salesman just short of refused to let me drive it more. I…
That's on the person who is cross posting it. They can have it be whatever they want, but it seems to be a Gawker rule to just do the first paragraph.
