I think you’ll do fine. Years back I read an anecdote of a black woman on a street car in Tokyo. She overheard a japanese mother telling her son in Japanese that black people have tails. The black woman turned and replied in perfect Japanese that they did not. The Japanese woman who uttered the comment to her son then…

I agree, really great guide. I used to live in Yokohama as a child (military brat) and lived in Negishi Heights at the off base family housing there. I was able to roam the neighborhoods as a young boy, met a lot of the locals including their sons who I befriended and played with on a regular basis.

When I hear John Buffum say he’s never done a handbrake turn before it’s more like ‘Shurrrrrrrrreeee I’ve never done a handbrake turn before, shhhurrrreeee I haven’t’....

I think a lot of their planes are smoky. Does anyone know if it’s related to the engines or the quality of the fuel or both? I think Mig 23’s had that problem, maybe 21’s. . .

I would have liked to see what he could have done without all the sun glare on an overcast day... Would have been one for the record books I’m sure.

Great Googley Boogley dem’s some sweet sounds!

They should have turned the weiner around to face the other direction, it’s like they’re afraid to show their hot dog proudly. . .

I would think the weight of the cat would make for a bulge in the wing not easily missed. Just my two cents.

And don’t forget the indented headlining to fit the owners huge ego inflated head... Bentley’s on top of it! What about all the other manufacturers? I’m lookin’ at you Rolls Royce!

I just dropped the sport entirely, overhearing other conversations among members made it seem like something fairly common. Happened years ago, perhaps things have changed, don’t care to re-visit it. Kudos to those who stop these people from participating if not turning them over to law enforcement. I’m a motorsports…

In my experiences with TSD they most certainly do not stay within the speed limit. If for some reason they miss a turn or are misled by an instruction (deliberately by the organizers) they would have to speed to make up time, sometimes in triple digits on country roads.

This one does it for me: front and rear engine, full glass cockpit, huge tires.

Now you know when you see his eyes bugging out in the movie that was for real real not for play play!

I noticed the driver didn’t have his hands on the steering wheel much, confidence on the alignment on this car. Kudos to the ‘K’!

That scene was real, more or less. Gave Mifune nightmares afterwards.

Also remember WEC cars are essentially F1 cars with bodywork and not nearly as many restrictions as F1 cars have these days.

My earholes are so happy right now! Oh, crapped an even bigger bald eagle! Shite that hurts...

Crapped five bald eagles, sphincter hurts like hell now. . .

How are Porsches so reliable? How is water not wet?
