Here’s what I had negotiated before I walked away.

For every good dealer there are numerous bad ones, nearly inifinte numbers of bad car dealers.

The stupidest thing is now that Texting while driving is a ticketable offense, people keep the phone down low and look further away from the road!

Mistakes happen,

A few notes.

Not sure on that, I think he KNEW his only advantage on RAI was in a few corners and importantly the corner before the DRS. To me it looked like he’d save his tyres and brakes, and fuel for that corner and nail it 100% perfect EVERY time to keep the more powerful Ferrari at bay on the straight.

Dat Chernkov Radiation, so damned lovely.

If too large of a breaker is fitted you can have enough current flow to ignite wiring and insulation well before the breaker trips.

The only weakness any of those motors have is still the intake manifold gasket. The OEM ones are total trash and fail really often, there are much nicer upgraded aftermarket ones, and you need a good diligent tech to do the job right.

First hit was a racing incident, second hit was incompetence.

He took at a Red Bull alumni in a very very very shitty way at the damned start of the race. They want the new drivers to BEAT the old drivers not crash them out.

Better to break a cap have to eat a new one than let the car go with the cap OFF and ruin a customer’s day (or car)

So while it may have a mechanical or electric pump that in theory would almost function like a choke and just be…

Some of us look just fine in skinny jeans and not like we have shrunken tubes of Go-Gurt for legs.

Lots actually, I was a mechanic for about 10 years. More specifically I worked on Long Island, otherwise known as a miserable spit of land subject to salt corrosion 100% of the year, either from the water that surrounds us or what we dump on the roads in the winter. Frozen Rusty bolts are all I knew.
