No, it really isn't.

Codacons is a useless organization. I'd be surprised to see anything coming of this.

And once again Race Direction looks as inept as a bunch of donkeys trying to hump a baseball.

Update, Fenati’s team has shown him the door and the owner of MV Agusta has gone on record that he wants nothing to do with Fenati for his team next year. That effectively puts him out of a ride for the foreseeable future.

I’m not sure about this. On the one hand it’s a wrap, so there’s no fundamental damage/permanent impact to the car so it’s just a bit of fun. However I don’t think it really works, faux-aged stuff just seems a bit silly to me.

Manzi’s telemetry puts the speed at which the event happened at 217km/h, which is 134mph in old money. The telemetry also shows 20 bar of brake pressure being applied. Once again, nothing playful about it, there is no fist bump, there is only the desire to cause harm.

Rubbish, 260-270 is all you’ll get out of a 636, and even that’s going to take a runway longer than a winter with no sex.

Counterpoint; maybe he wasn’t that good.

“Just shy of 300kph on a 636.”

Flat in fifth, 130 horsepower race bike. There were NOT doing 80mph.

1974 Innocenti Mini Cooper Mk3 Export. It wasn’t massively fast, it wasn’t pretty, it would never have won any concours awards but it was my race car. It was the car that transformed my weekends from quiet to expensive. It was the car that let me go back to work and tell people that I was a race car driver. It was the…

They are riding at more than 150mph. There is no ‘playful tweak.’ At that speed even the slightest mistake makes for something potentially fatal.

Best bit? These two were supposed to be teammates with the new MV Agusta entry in 2019.

Your eyes are painted on your head.

Out of all of the moronic things Musk has done over the recent years, THIS gets the government’s attention?

A nicer set of wheels and I would be very happy with that in my garage.

I regret that I can only star this once.

Nope. Turning it into a three door has thrown the proportions all to piss. The Singer, the Eagle, the Alfaholics GTV all leave the fundamental proportions of the car alone (even if the Singer looks a bit wide to me), this looks badly photoshopped.

Oh for fuck’s sake, it’s a bloody Corolla with a fucking CVT, the most soul-destroyingly dull conveyance ever imagined. A longer roof and you not being able to buy it does not magically make it appealing.

I for one would be very curious to see how McLaren’s own startled tree frog aesthetic would translate to an SUV.
