Speaking of megalomaniacal plutocrats, the private equity jackasses who own this site killed Deadspin. Here’s my open letter to them:

I visited Evergreen last summer with my daughters, even as teenagers they were good sports about letting their dad geek out. The sheer size of this thing can only be appreciated by standing under or in it. Scheduled guided tours are available of the Spruce Goose, and you can easily spend an entire day at the museum.…

The Spruce Goose held the record for heaviest flown aircraft until 1952, when the B-52 Stratofortress first took flight, and the record for largest wingspan until April of this year, when Stratolaunch made its first test flight. This was mostly because of the wood construction, the wings needed to be big to spread the…

Worked for Audi and driven both cars a ton. Both on track and off. Short answer- No.

Sounds like Mr. Hart needs to find better friends 

How is it “sub-standard”? It had the legally required equipment. By definition, it met the standard.

Just add padding to the roll cage, like every wrangler available. Going to be better than having your body crushed because your roof is made of clothes hanger wire and vinyl. 

True, but I’m pretty sure the 70 Barracuda only came with lap belts. https://www.hagerty.com/articles-videos/articles/2019/07/10/kevin-harts-40th-birthday-gift-speedkores-70-plymouth-cuda#

Hart’s behavior is not evidence of anything, people act weird after a traumatic accident, as anyone who has been in such an accident would tell you. It’s the shock of it.

I think the original story still stinks (conflicting reports of who was actually driving, Hart appearing intoxicated and being snuck home before going to the hospital) -- but... This is a lousy thing to be sued for. A heavily modified 50-year old muscle car... Enter at your own risk.

at some point maybe corporate America will realize selling $35-55k cars is difficult if there is no middle class

Was onboard until... outback?

Looking in the dealer system, there are only 300 new JK left.

I wonder if they checked to see how many of those leftover 2018s are carryover Wrangler JKs, since Jeep was building both JK and JL Wranglers and Wrangler Unlimiteds for the 2018 model year.

For sure my favorite is Marty Robbins. A legendary country musician known for songs such as Big Iron, El Paso, and Cool Water, Robbins turned a big fortune into a small one through stock car auto racing. As an amateur, Robbins competed in 36 Nascar Cup Series races at the top level, and earned 6 top-10 finishes.

Yikes. I’d hate to run into you at a party.

Also...  The powers that be got sick of some of the whack-a-doo engineering in the 1970s.  F1 cars must have 4 tires/wheels now, with 2 of them driven.  Damn shame...
