Yep, Miatas are tough for tall people in helmets unless you do all the floor-cutting you mentioned. I dealt with the same issue and moved over to BMWs. Been a great 8.5 years with those instead. Read more

The best way to avoid this kind of traffic is to support a locally-owned chicken place that serves tastier food, is likely owned by a member of your local area, and doesn’t publicly, proudly discriminate against the LGBTQ community.
The answer that *nobody has said yet* is to buy the 86/BRZ that she says she wants, and budget $4,000 for one season of High Performance Driver Education with Eva’s local region of NASA. Go a few years old - the outgoing cars are nearly as good as the new ones - and leave money to learn to drive faster and safer. Read more
What’s even MORE fun is that these people rented a local racetrack (Dominion Raceway) and the racetrack shared a video welcoming the drivers to their facility, complete with Confederate flag stuck to the fencing. I emailed the track’s owner asking for more info and got a non-response. Read more
I’m hoping to get Victoria to come hang/drive with us! TBD. But she’s a fabulous writer. That series is great, and she also wrote this on our site that was, IMO, exceptional: Read more
Can’t wait to see you there - hope you can make it to both events :-)
At the time he owned one (1) Jeep Cherokee - that maroon one - and it was a rust-free example. He may have stood too close to my spray-painted BMW 325e (with keys broken off in every lock and every fluid container leaking) that it wore off on him. Read more

That’s Topaz Blue, Estoril was never offered on the E53 and is way brighter. Read more
Congrats, looking forward to reading your work!
The Chrysler LX cars do not share a platform with the Mercedes W210. They share some suspension pieces and switchgear but are on their own platform.
Find new friends.
Sorry but... they’re pretty bad. Read more
I made $5,000 after owning my 2016 Ram 1500 Sport for two years and driving it for 10,000 miles. Read more
Robb - this is fantastic to see! We are trying to do something similar, albeit entirely at the grassroots/amateur level, for LGBT+ folks with Out Motorsports. Would be very interested in chatting and seeing how we could partner up in some way to advance both forms of diversity. I’ll figure out how to email you.
But it uh... it IS a fancy Land Cruiser. Even the brand-new 2021s are 95% the same vehicle, separated by fancypants suspension, audio systems, and dashboard designs.
My truck enables and supports my racing hobby. It’s not fun in any sense, the Hemi is awful on fuel, and it’s generally kinda big for daily driving. It could go off-road though the general dimensions make that more annoying than amusing. Read more
DAVID. This is the perfect “reliable daily” for you. Install a hitch since it doesn’t have one for whatever reason, and use it to retrieve more shitboxes that we all know you’ll buy anyway.
Hugely exciting! Now how to get some Out Motorsports stickers on his car... hrm.
I’ve owned a ridiculous number of older BMWs (15 or so?) but I wouldn’t say I’m brand-loyal as a result, given I’m pretty critical of the brand now and am willing to accept their numerous flaws in older models, too. Read more
