I was very disappointed that Jason followed the familiar trope in that video.  We need to get past the marketing that has clearly muddied the waters.  

This question is my trigger. “The difference between AWD and 4WD” is fundamentally flawed; There is no difference. There is only 4wd and different operational methods. This either or system defined by haves and do not haves always has exceptions and often misses the heart of the issue.

You’re just wrong.  Bumpers are hideous and photos of them should only exist to remind us of the horrors of the past so we don’t repeat those mistakes.  You have insurance.  You don’t need bumpers.

One move? He’s pushed multiple drivers off the track this year. He’s about as dirty as Power used to be, but Power has cooled out in the last couple of years.  

I think Rossi is amazingly talented. He’s also dirty, and I don’t like him. He can dish it out, but he sure can’t take it.

I hope this guy takes it next year

Terrible taste in cars though.

I got one of these from Harbor Freight for free with a coupon a few years ago. I carry it in my car as my flashlight for those occasions where I need one, and I have used it on occasion for working on my cars as well. It’s been the best $0 I’ve spent. :)

Maybe it’s because I had to suffer the indignity of driving several Escorts in my earlier driving life, but I can’t help but see a ZX2 in the Alpine design.

These are contradictory statements.

“How often are you really doing this? A few times a year?”

*sigh* How many reviews of sports cars have I read where the author ponders if the car is alsmost... too easy to drive fast? Or where they fawn over something analog ike the e30 m3?

FTFY

Great write up Raph.

Thanks. I usually try to avoid kicking people when they’re down but Roy truly deserves it.

I agree. This car sounds fantastic. Out of my price range for fun car, but I would consider a lesser version if I had a bigger budget. My guess is you could get almost there performance wise for quite a bit less by ditching the crate motor and getting different wheels + no aesthetic only mods. I’m all about hatches…

Let’s be sure to acknowledge all 3 of Dale Jr’s accomplishments here:

Fuck Richard Petty, Fuck Donald Trump.

I don’t think I’ve ever been more proud to be a fan of Dale than I am today. He has always been someone that I admire and respect. It’s sad that he’ll likely be the lone voice in NASCAR that’s willing to say this since those who agree will likely be too scared to voice this opinion.
