Top public course in Chicagoland is currently $155 before your cart..

You have 2 real options.

Golf priced itself out around that time too. 20 year ago, my step dad had a country club membership that was $150 a month for unlimited golf for the family (initiation was like 4 figures) and the local park district course (which at the time was a top 50 in the US course) had a $7 after 3pm rate that I used frequently.…

No, tailgating anywhere, especially college football or racing is better than golf. But it is the best way to legally do it in pretty much any city on any day of the year.

Dang, just bought M1 to change my oil over the weekend.  Missed it by a couple days.

Yes a 10-20% hit in the first couple months always happens, and it’s not just new investors doing a quick flip. It could be original investors who got in really cheap and now have an easy way to unload shares.

That is extremely un-Lotus-like, I would have exprected them to realize they were out of steering columns the day after they needed to order before the Brexit deadline.

I love purpose built road courses, not a fan of street courses.  Not enough passing zones, not enough run off room to take risks. I would take Montreal, the Daytona infield course, laguna seca, road america before an street course.  Also that Indy road course is probably better for Nascar than the oval.

That has always been the case. Nascar hasnt changed that in your lifetime. Actually that’s possible in every racing series. You could win the F1 championship, or Indy, or Mario Kart withouth winning a race. Winning makes it easier, but if you finish 2nd in every race and a handful of drivers each win and have bad…

The finale should be at Talladega.

what car?

My buddy takes his to track days and passes Porsches and Corvettes all day.

* It’s what the base BRZ needs to be.

Here is the point of a Veyron. Take a normal supercar owned by a billionaire. They dont go to the track, because their owners dont have the skill to drive them. And any track damage is a 6 figure repair bill. So they are never used to their potential. It’s also abnoxious and uncomfortable so nobody wants to actually…

Auto journalists love everything that’s brand new. But the love was lost quickly. I remember Car and Driver was rather unpleased with it by the time the convertible came along.

Those werent collaborations, those were engines they used, one person calling the shots. The SLR had different people with different ideas. McLaren wanted a hyper car and Mercedes wanted an SL on steroids. Mercedes won.

The Z1, Z3, Z8, and second gen Z4 looked just fine without it.

that diagonal crease between the door and front wheel bothers me more than any design element on any car ever.

I’m also one of the enthusiasts that prefers the roadster over the shoe, make mine an S54 model in LSB.

Neutral.  Probably work as a barista, and make Bernie Sanders memes about how we need free college tuition.
