I was completely on the DCT bandwagon for a long time. Faster, often more reliable, extremely fast upshifts, best of both worlds, etc. I had all the arguments. Of course, I put my money where my mouth is and bought a car with a solid DCT. Its fast, it works great, I can sit in traffic without my left leg getting a…

As a current Mustang driver I’m really getting tired of the “Mustangs always wreck when leaving car shows” thing. It’s gotten really old.

That’s the first thing I thought when I was watching the GIF. I thought the article was going to be about redemption and how things doing always go as planned the first time.

Lets be honest why the US birthrate is dropping. Kids cost a lot of money, and are a rude, loud, messy and hassle.

Fuck the Gymkhana series. I want to see Shitkhana. Hoon the fuck out of ShitCar in the most glorious, gory, destructive, flashy way possible. Shitkahana should only be released on July 4th and they should always make it even more and more patriotic in the most ludicrous ways possible.

I guess the plant was really... booming.

This is perfect for anyone who has a 1000 foot commute to work.

Pretty sure that’s a Lambo, dude.

Why do ze Germans have to make everything so damn complicated... they could have just swapped a Hellcat into a GT3.

I’m the person who wrote in. And yes it absolutely must have a manual transmission. Automatics are the soulless tools of the devil. $10K is my budget for a 2nd car for the weekends. Yes I could afford more, but I also have (finally) learned to live within my means. Unfortunately that cap has put the S2000 out of…

For those that don’t know it, I submit the “transcript” of their conversation.

“you look like you’ve fallen over in the playground”

This report only mentions half the stuff that actually went down in this race!

Chester is 72 years old. He’s been dreaming of owning a Corvette for the vast majority of those years. He worked hard and played it safe. He’s got enough money to bring home a Vette and the wife says it is ok. Now he knows the one’s from the 60's were way faster, buta new Vette is part of the dream. He orders his…

You absolutely can make it through the corner at a slow enough speed. And maybe throw a 3-point turn in there. And why do race cars have to go so damn fast anyway?!

The other Jalops therefore said unto him, “we have seen the S2000.” But he said unto them, “except I shall see in my hands the keys of such Honda, and put my hand onto the gearshift, and thrust my feet upon the pedals, I will not believe.”

It would be awesome if Ray were interested in occasionally writing for Jalopnik as a sort of Jalop emeritus. I’m sure he would have some stories to tell and would fit in perfectly with the motley assortment of characters.
