Ooh, this is a good question, didn’t think of that.

John Hindhaugh is easily one of the best reasons to be an endurance racing fan.

Dammit!! I’ll be awake, alright, but I’ll be by myself out in CA. I’ve tried to put this kind of thing together with friends out here, but it’s fizzled out because we all have little kids now. Sounds killer, have fun! Maybe do one out here sometime?

Can’t watch this at work, but it gets a star for the promised content. It helps that I have a 4000Q with a bunch of scaffolding in it.

Easier to launch, too. That's the case with most good automatics today. Doesn't mean I wouldn't get the stick though.

And I will be there. This could be bad though, because now I’m old enough to drink and know all the little idiosyncrasies of the movie.

I’d drive one cross country.

They are exceedingly rare, unfortunately, but I’ve seen one.

I’ve driven one, actually. The right pedal is still the fun part.

In a street racing crash, no less, after he chased down Rob Walker’s 300SL in his Jaguar.

That’s plum crazy talk! Challenger drivers don’t need their left leg anyway, there’s only one pedal that matters, and it’s on the right.

As a relatively new dad myself, I really want to like these things because on the face of it they seem to tick all the right boxes. The punk-ass kid in me likes the way they look, the space is decent, the numbers look good, the price is appealing. Then I read the road tests, and “meh” is about the best that can be

A star for owning that guy.

2002 What? Not a BMW, surely. 2002 Honda Civic with a bodykit, maybe? I own a 2002, and can categorically state that this is ridiculous. It’s clear they tried to evoke the Group 5 2002 front airdam, but other than that... um... I don’t know what the idea was.

I prefer to have an attractive companion blow on it. Less stuff to break that way.

There’s a roundabout not far from the shop there that their old Volvo Turbo Focus ST was a lot of fun on, Robb should show us Drift Mode. Just saying.

What’s old is new again.

I didn’t get to watch the video, but he’s definitely already a living legend.

Yep, this is what I was implying.

Not just Morley, may he RIP, but David E Davis! I used to enjoy reading Automobile as a kid and DED was entertaining, to say the least. One of the great characters in automotive journalism. He wrote perhaps the best review of the BMW 2002 ever published, which helps my enthusiasm for his writing.
