The Indy 500 doesn’t air on TV until 8pm EST for people in the Indianapolis ‘coverage’ area. Wonderful blackout rules for ya. Knowing that makes the timeline of events more understandable.

Indianapolis resident here as well. I agree about your point in regard to the horse drawn carriages. The pedal pub guides are considerate and use planned routes. I’ve been on two of them, once for a department outing and another for a birthday party. A lot of fun and this was when the business first came to Indy (the…
Now playing
If you’ve never seen this spectacle of idiocy...I introduce to you, the Scheid Diesel Extravaganza (held in Terre Haute, IN every year).

It’s a normal diesel based enthusiast / tractor pull / etc event that brings in the biggest names in diesel tuning, engine building, from…
Dead on. Indiana, no emissions or safety checks. Yearly registration for my ‘12 will be around $400 this year. It’s based on classification of your vehicle and a value (I believe based off NADA). It’s common for people who live along the Illinois / Indiana border that have property in IL to be seen registering…
Mmm New Glarus brewery.
That’s the short-lived Atari Jaguar console controller, right?
just to add to this...the 2008 Sport models have the 3.63 FD, but if you went automatic, it was in combo w/ a 5AT.
However, the differentials are a very easy swap and low cost option (heck 4x Frontier Diffs pretty much bolt up giving 4.08FD). After 2008, they all went to 3.3FD gearing, Sport models getting the…
The associated cam issues that were a result of Ford’s infinite wisdom gave that small displacement Yamaha v8 a bad rap. The TSB issued by Ford to use loctite on the cam sprocket was laughable (for those who didn’t own or were stuck with one).. SMDH
This shot reminds me of picking up a family friend's '92 Viper for prom back in '98. Damn, I just made myself feel really old reminiscing about my Junior prom from 17 years ago. Fun night, fast car, even faster date- :D.
It's why I continue to keep my '87 2.3 16v around, I was tempted to let it go about 7-8 years ago and then thought better of it. Best. Decision. Ever.
After an ECU and TCM update that 7AT is smooth as butter and doesn't shift conservatively if you actually leave it in automatic mode (what Jalop would do that? ..actually what Jalop wouldn't opt for the 6MT? lol). 7AT is quicker than the 6MT and the previous 5AT, so honestly..there's not much to rant about, aside from…
I guess I never am around 'most people' as anyone I've been around loves the sound compared to other V6's. They tune the stock exhaust on the G's and FX's quite well and distinctly with it's gurgle. Rev matching is a wonderful symphony of sound going down off ramps.
Ummmm... g37 came out before the Genesis coupe...it it definitely took styling cues off it. So who influenced who again?
^ Agreed. I get a lot of compliments and I only rock Stillen Gen 3's intakes and Tanabe Medallion axle back.
3.0 Twin Turbo (biturbo in the MB world) M276 DELA 30 to be exact. The platform has been used by MB starting in certain 2013 E-class models.
That would be the true icing on the cake if Infiniti comes correct with a TT option of some sort... heck they did it with the 300zx back in the day.
Here's to hoping the Mercedes made 3.0 TT power plant is offered as an option. That would be epic for tuning options as well as get the Z contingent in a frenzy. Putting the twin turbo 3.0 in the Q60 would more than likely mean it would be offered up in the next gen Z.
I agree..the Infinity speaker making company has gone stale. Let's see what Infiniti as a car company can come up with. Hopefully they introduce the MB made 3.0 TT in this Q60. That would be epic.
Accord coupe and the 'new' '15 mustang...lol
