The Mazda RX-8's is perfect at giving you what you need when driving fast: a big tach and a digital speedometer.

Trump is the BASF of intolerance and stupidity.

Fantastic. I just spent two days driving across the eastern part of this country. For some reason, the most unaware drivers were in Kia Souls. I can’t wait to have some new styling to see while being irritated. ;)

You get a star.

The RX8 crashes all happened on race tracks in competition. The Benz was totaled by another driver blowing a stop sign.

Oh god, yes.

I had a 1993 for 14 years. The reason the bronze tint is the only one offered that year is that the 1993 only came in one color combination - red with beige interior.

I saw Massa’s entire F1 career. I’m a fan of the sport, though of course I have favorite drivers. Massa was never one of them. I was still totally happy to watch the odd brilliant performance from him.

I really don’t like Volkswagen, but I adore the Phaeton. It’s Germany’s answer to the Japanese bubble car.

Oh I’m so going to try this with my RX-8. It ought to be hilarious.

I compete in Time Trial against women, and I’ve instructed female drivers in HPDE. I’m delighted to see what I believe is more interest by women in racing.

I’m with you. I was also disappointed. But then I drove one. They’re fabulous cars to drive.

I have an RX-8. It’s not a first-gen RX-7 by any means, but owning one makes me think it’s incredibly unlikely that we’ll see another rotary sports car from Mazda.

I think the 2005-2009 Subaru Legacy and Outback aged well for this reason: they were behind the times.

I love Burt Reynolds. He was the mayor of my city, after all, and you’re not wrong that he shaped my love for cars as a kid.

The Lotus M100 Elan. All day. 

‘Oh, hey, this is a car channel I haven’t seen Maybe I’ll subscribe, because this is a cool car.’

What a difficult line they have to walk as a company. I’m no fan of Harleys - or, more to the point, Harley riders - but I don’t envy the company’s challenges at all.

Back in March, during a NASA Great Lake event at NCM in Bowling Green, I gave a ride around the track to a GM engineer who was working on this V8.

When I consider what it costs me to compete in NASA TT with my own car, and what my HPDE clients pay, this is a pretty good deal for $650.
