Very interesting to see how short the gearing is...doesn’t seem like it would work on a track with a longer straight! I wonder what the top speed is for that example.

Each of these guys has more talent in their toenail clippings than any writer here...

This thing is fantastic.

And when exactly does having the best lap times matter?

Am I alone in thinking they need to make this whole electric crate motor thing easier for the average enthusiast? I’m thinking a direct swap for the original engine, using the same engine mounts and rough dimensions. Maybe replace the fuel tank for a battery pack. Is this not feasible for some reason?

I think I heard on Spike’s Car Radio (they interviewed the owners of Radford)  that it’s gonna be a stick.

Oh shut up.

I have a 2021 Monkey (very similar to this bike), so maybe I can help. It will be faster off the line to 50 than the average driver driving casually, but slower than anyone going full throttle in a newer car.

I think it looks way better with the windshield. Obviously not as unique or whatever, but windshieldless cars always look weird to me. Like they’re headless or something.

The car would later be repainted and driven by Harrison Ford in American Graffiti!

The 924 inspired the SA/FB, and the 944 inspired the FC.

Because it’s awesome?

I think they benefit greatly from a few minor tweaks.

Where did you find this engine?

Quick correction: The 288 GTO had 395hp, not 295.

Bland or just understated?

As a fan of the current Accord, I think this is a good thing.

I think it looks fantastic. A complete turnaround from the overstyled mess they currently have on sale, and a return to when Hondas were understated and classy.

Spoken like someone who has never driven one.

Maybe this was true with the very first edition that had the unfortunate tire selection, but I’m not sure the other things you said are correct:
