It’s a weird way to frame it, isn’t it? It would be absolutely fantastic if politics could be kept out of sport! I’d love it to just be competition between the finest athletes! I would like to watch a big international competition without having to think about human rights violations or AS MENTIONED, INVADING A

No, we don’t want sports to be a space for political debate. But that being said, the issue at hand here is NOT ‘political debate’. The invasion of one country by another is NOT ‘political debate’.

I also want an AWD hybrid Maverick... but why not just get the turbo? And why was what you ended up with a 18mpg Tacoma?

Oh boy is this opinion piece crammed full of bad takes and a fundamental dangerous misunderstanding”

Why isn’t it an EV.

It is operated at low speeds and makes frequent stops.

$100k for a brand new bus? Did you time travel from 1903?

Wasn’t there an article a few weeks ago about some owners finding it difficult/impossible to latch the middle latch on the soft tops?

This is inherently good...I think

Wouldn’t your analogy be more like allowing the seat to move beyond the range of designed fore aft? Like reving beyond the range.

This is more like “you revved above 5000rpms 3 times in a row, car will now only rev to 2500 for the next 5 minutes.”

Chicanes are tough to evaluate but the blue 911 was a half length behind, on the outside line in the entrance and even went off track, so rightfully spun out and lost out there.
