A good decade+ too late. The V6 Eclipse was the end of them making actual fun cars. No one I knew wanted an Evo because it’s a 4-door subcompact, while Subaru let you build the WRX your way for longer. They had coupes, hatches and wagons ready to go on that platform, but hey, fuck the customer.

1st gear horseshit: Harley were already divesting production from the US because they’re hot garbage. Trump is also garbage but don’t pretend Harley is some sort of smart company hedging their bets because of trade wars. Their production for the European market already mostly comes out of India.

Le Mans this year was just a piss take as far as the organization and rules. Happy that Toyota finally got their win but it comes under less than proud circumstances.

The entire ACO/WEC class structure. But specifically the GT class: BoP is total garbage, but it’s the inevitable result of trying to cram cars with wildly varying power levels and price tags into a single class. Oh, wait, TWO classes, because there’s a massively stupid carve-out in the field solely for PAY DRIVERS.…

Wealthy woman drives obsolete F1 car in private function.

American Cities Racing League had that concept around 25 years ago. Do some research before you write your dumb headlines.

Gearing gets you halfway there.

So this is entirely possible. Shame on Kimi if it’s true. Doesn’t take a particularly weak man to something this stupid while drunk and Kimi does drink heavily.

Convince me the private prison industry going through this wouldn’t be absolutely delicious to watch.

Imagine if that traffic cam money had been used for cameras that recognized traffic and prioritized signaling, instead of trying to generate revenue.

The drivers don’t get a pass. Too many racist, underhanded, incompetent and downright unpleasant among their number to count. I’m getting passed on the shoulder to an onramp? It’s either a BMW or a yellow cab.

“it’s not inconceivable that a fire of this size could take up on any other RoRo.”

This is the problem I’m having: they could have payed tribute to the Code Talkers, the Night Witches, the nisei of the 442nd, the Buffalo Soldiers of the 92nd, African colonial troops, the over 2.5 million solders of the British Raj, the Gurkha Rifles (probably the closest real-life to the superhuman player characters…

Debate rages on whether .44 Magnum will put down a brown bear before it mauls you to death. There are few places you can put a heavy pistol bullet into a CHARGING grizzly that will cause it to instantly drop, and it will certainly catch and kill you before it bleeds out.

The fourth one down was Blues Brothers.

Motorcycles have dog gears so it’s a lot easier with them.

It’s entirely true. Had a Toyota Pickup (Hilux) where the slave cylinder failed and I couldn’t fix it for months. Drove it by crawling away on the starter, shifting by rev matching, and stalling out when stopped.

Now Skeeter, he ain’t hurtin’ nobody. I think the person you’re raging at was just lamenting that training deaths happen at all.

So, Champcar did a bayfront course that made for shitty racing. CART and Trans-Am had previously done a different bayfront location on open land that is now American Airlines Arena and Museum Park. And before that IMSA used Tamiami Park on the west side of the city, which didn’t have great public transit access, but…

Maybe NP if you went all out on Pro Touring-style upgrades (LS/T56/10 bolt Posi/bigger brakes/mild suspension).
