My first car was a 72 Celica ST. Loved that car, it was a torquey sumbitch, I beat a 75 Camaro in a rolling start race with it. Gas mileage was awful though. Came across another one in college sitting in some guys yard and nearly talked myself into buying it, although I didn’t really have the money. His son had worked…

Because it’s just a self affirmation circle jerk playing dress up as journalism. You ain’t a POC? You’re ‘pending’.....

229 black people out of 74 million were killed by whites last year. Tell us again about how all you want to do is be left alone but white folks keep shooting all your shit up with machine guns.

I remember when we went to the Dominican Republic years ago, to a resort, we had to drive our shuttle bus through part of the ‘real’ section of the D.R. when we went to a dive trip an hour away. We drove through one local burg that had a “pothole” that spanned the entire width of the road, in an area with no real…

Nobody cared about Tempos; least of all, their owners.

The Seven-Ups. Arguably the best car chase scene of the bunch. No mention of the original Gone in 60 Seconds yet? The California Kid? Honorable mentioned for Short Time and To Live and Die in LA.

Bill Hickman was the driver of both the Pontiac in Seven Ups as well as the Charger in Bullitt. Fun fact: You will notice the other bad guy in the car with Hickman in the Pontiac gives a few “holy shit we’re going to die” expressions during the chase. Those were unscripted live reactions by the actor who spent most of…

Is this place where I can post that they should have kept the grid girls, but mandated that half of the positions be provided to male models in order to promote gender equality? Where’s Cathy Newman?, I bet she has my back on this.

It will still be the favored whip of starbucks sipping30-something J.A.P.s everywhere with long black hair, oversized sunglasses, and a propensity for cutting you off in a merge lane while giving you an icy death stare, you worthless plebe, you.

Pointing out the hypocrisy of the host site? -5 points from Gryffindor

The idea here is that the preferences and likes of the white guys with money are no longer material to the conversation. Because white male CIS gender privilege.

How about keep the grid girls, but put em all in burkas. F1 can use all the clothing real estate as advertising space. Profit!

“If you can buy a $200,000 car with better performance than a million dollar car, then how do you justify the price tag?”

I seem to recall a story (that I know I’m messing up) that the first time(?) they ran the F1 race at Indy, one of the F1 drivers on an off day was taken to one of the Indy area dirt tracks to watch the World of Outlaw Sprints practice and was offered a drive in one of the cars. After watching them for a bit, he…

In college I had a 72 2door 4 speed 510 (burnt orange). I had the steelies and tires from my brother’s 280z on it after he got mags for his car. They fit with no rubbing and looked good and upgraded the level of grip quite a bit. 2100lbs, 4 wheel independent suspension, manual rack and pinion steering manual brakes.…

Hey, you’re crapping on Harley Davidson’s business plan, there bub!

True that. An Audi that is out of warranty is approximately as desirable as keeping a honey badger for a pet in your apartment.

Those might be faster, but they arent more fun than the ‘original’ smuggler boats, Jersey Speed Skiffs, which were rum rummers during prohibition. 400hp small block chevys in what amounts to a fancy rowboat

You guys are kinda missing the other point about having something on vinyl, namely that the album itself (and its cover) was cooler, specifically the original pressings. For example, Led Zeppelin III and the round rotating insert built into the over, or Physical Graffiti , with its window sleeve insert design, or…

Reminds me of the documentary done number of years back about Gregor Hurry, who was one of the ‘alien’ drivers in Grand Prix Legends. They flew him over the states and had a team do a day session with him in an F3 (I think) car. He had never driven a real car before. Long story short, he did quite well. The physical…
