Best application, right here:

More stars for this guy.

I always thought it was an artist’s rendering of a MkII Golf, as you’ve suggested. The rear was never really right, but it changed a lot and the front can’t be anything else. It’s a mix of pre-facelift small bumpers and post-facelift headlamps, but it’s a Golf.

I saw one in person for the first time this morning, on my commute. I almost crashed when I went momentarily blind.

This is going to be amazing!

Exactly. It depends entirely on who underwrites it. Most aftermarket warranties are a waste of money, but there are good ones out there. Do your homework, call some shops, ask what works.

I love that Spyker-tastic screenname.

That’s all true, but it’s another story about the FIA letting Porsche get one over on them. They more or less said “Hey, you’re going to let us race this.” The Porsche was the first of the silhouette GT1s to set the precedent, all in trying to beat the McLaren F1.

The next one has always been mid-engined, at least.

Wouldn’t be the first time the FIA has been flexible for Porsche.

This is why I have a 20 year old 4x4.

Am I doing it right?

Not in a few years, but I used to do track days there regularly and work on other people’s cars at tests & events. No time or money for trackdays any more, and the teams I’ve worked for since use Buttonwillow or Thunderhill.

This is great. I just told a friend this morning who was talking about how lucky a part-time journalist family member was to drive a 488 that I’d rather beat the shit out of a slow car than never get out of 2nd in a Ferrari, or worry about becoming persona non grata with them if they damage or disparage it (though…

Willow Springs! I know the place well. That looks like a converted 934.

We have the same feeling. In high school, a buddy of mine had an ‘86 Max that we messed around with, lowered with TSW wheels and an exhaust. We thought it was a great car, but we aspired to have the then-recent 4DSC ‘93.

If effectively shortens the gearing.

Yeah, we’re going to need more information about that to feed our jealousy.

There is nothing that Ongais’ Interscope livery looks bad on. Spectacular.

What am I doing? Oh, nothing honey, just looking at this Hustler.
