What’s your point exactly? I stand by that statement. There’s truth to it, and those professions are necessary for society to continue to function. It also doesn’t mean I want people to die. A lot of non-helmet wearing riders just happen to die when they get in to accidents. Not wearing a helmet is a decision they…

No I’m not passionate about seeing people die. I’m just a pragmatic person. People make decisions. People live and die by those decisions.
Helmet laws were repealed in Missouri recently, which is where I live. It doesn’t bother me. Helmet laws never, ever bothered me since I’m ATTGAT since I started riding 15 years ago. There has never been an instance of me riding when I did not put any gear on. I’m in favor of helmet laws. So nice try attempting and…
And how is that mine or anyone else’s problem? Non-helmet wearer who died made the decision to throw away their life and prematurely cut ties with the people that cared about them. They may or may not be mourned. Life goes on for those surviving. Maybe the survivors will learn a lesson in fucking around and finding…
If people want to assume the high risk of self-elimination by not wearing helmets while riding, let them. There are paid professionals whose job is to clean meat crayons. Life and society goes on.
AE86. Not a terrible car per se. Just below average at best when compared to other cars of its era. But Initial D had me convinced that it was the best JDM car in the world and can beat cars that are objectively and subjectively better than it on a mountain pass. Plot armor is one helluva drug.
I hope his insurance doesn’t cover this.
When I was 22 years old, not only was I a horrible driver of manual cars, I also lied a lot to try to cover my ass. Not saying he’s lying about not taking it to a road course. But after a quarter mile run, manual cars are downshifted to slow down in conjunction with brakes so you don’t run out of track. Adrenaline and…
As they should. Overrevving is 100% user error. Hitting redline is the engine’s method of preventing overrevving. Mechanical overrev is what happened with this car, apparently multiple times. One can mechanically overrev their engine without experiencing immediate catastrophic failure, also knows as a money shift.…
Nissan is fleeting. Altima is forever.
There was a time long, long ago when manual cars had better MPGs than automatics.
This article reminds of of trying to find online recipes and reading someone’s life story before getting to the point.
If they’re not willingly paying the ‘market adjustment’, are they really as wealthy as they think they are?
Maybe he didn’t want to wait over a year for PTS or perhaps there were no PTS allocations at the time. PTS is a flip of a coin. One month, they’ll have 2 PTS allocations, then no PTS allocations for 6 months, but allocations for the regular colors are available. That’s just how the Porsche factory operates.
The guy didn’t get a 911 ST allocation. Far be it for me to tell someone what to do with their $300k car. At that level, they can do whatever the fuck they want and us broke motherfuckers can sit here and judge. He can’t hear us over the glorious 9000 RPM induction noise.
Yes, of course a German Elon would do this.
I use my sick hours when I want, sick or not. If you don’t want your employees to use sick days, then you shouldn’t let them have it at all. Then watch your staff move on to other companies that respect employees more than you.
I’d just buy a Porsche and keep it stock. Tires and brake pads for track days. Mod money goes in to maintenance fund instead, because you kinda need a maintenance fund.
Who’d have thunk that people involved in classic car sales and restorations were doing illegal stuff?
