There is no wrong way to get into a career.  I work in Information Security and I can ask and 10 of my colleagues and have 10 different  stories about how they broke in.  Passion, Skill, and boneheaded determinism are the keys to getting into a profession. 

FIX. YOUR. DAMNED. J10!

I am personally averaging real world mileage of 30.5 MPG since I bought the car with 2500 miles on it 4 years ago. I have over 60K miles on it. I have a very heavy foot. I have more speeding tickets on my 2015 Mazda Madzda6 GT, than all of my previous cars combined.

As a very proud Mazda owner, with an I-ELOOP equipped 6.  The biggest drawback is the goddamned battery. The Q85 OE battery is stupid expensive and will last less than 50K miles for sure.  I replaced mine with a Optima yellow top with no problems so far. If I get another 10K out of it, it will be more cost effective…

When I was in my early 20s I had a hard time managing my anger. While in gridlock on a hot summer day without working AC, I reached up to adjust my rear view mirror just to have it come off of the windscreen in my hand. In my anger, I punched my windscreen, spiderwebbing it pretty fierce. My room mate sitting next to…

I owned one of these when I was young. From 35-70 mph it was sort of quick but damn it took a while to get any steam built up.

This makes me happy as it reminds me of my NG 900. It looked exactly like that one.

This is genuinely useful to me as I was debating placing a dashcam on my window mostly, but not entirely, obscured by these dots. I will now do so without fearing that I was interfering with some windscreen based system (forward obstruction, radar, rain sensors etc.)

In fairness RTR started the testing and campaigning last year in PWC as well. I know they are working along side MSR to develop the car. (Plus Lally and Eversley are almost certain to be sharing notes). It was an impressive run, however, and I look forward to both PWC and IMSA campaigns going forward this year.

Something similar happened in Utah with the Mormon Meteor III, which was displayed in the State Capitol building. The family of Ab Jenkins took back possession of the car and had to restore it.”Boys of Bonneville” is a good documentary of early salt flat pioneers and discusses this car.

Best car I drove is my new Mazda6 (2015 model, bought with 2500 miles on the clock) that I adore.
Worst, hands down, was the fleet spec no option Hyundai Elantra rental car when the above car was in the body shop due to the inattention of an idiot in a parking lot.

That is an alarmingly unfortunate name. I’d hate to see the rejected names.

Torch, it really comes down to knowing what information you are leaking, and to whom (and why) you are leaking it. It’s not really crucially invasive if you know that my 1 year old car has 10K miles on it (8 of which I put on in the last 5 months that I’ve owned it). BUT that is information that I want to control who…

Save that beast, document it, and share with us!

I get it. My wife got the CX3 when on paper I don’t really see a compelling argument for it over the Mazda3 5 door other than all wheel drive. She likes the more upright driving position a great deal.

I did consider, briefly, getting a CX-5 when I got my new Mazda6 a few months ago. The cargo space was compelling, but I just like a good sedan.

Can’t wait to start the restoration of these two.

The Nissan Versa configuration options are pretty sad.

You can argue that Haas is a Ferrari customer car, but damn still impressive. I like Grosjean, so am happy this is a good debut for him. After his bad crashy year, I say he has more than made up for his misdeeds. Can’t wait to see if the momentum holds up in China.
