He only did acting to fund his racing habit. Essentially like what Paul Newman did. Also sort of like the Anaheim Angles pitcher CJ Wilson does, playing baseball to fund his race team. I honestly don’t really understand this “good riddance” rhetoric as Dempsy wasn’t a bad racer, and he definitely was no gentleman…

They salt the mountain passes and foothill comunities that see snow and ice. My favorite part of 32 is off-limits to me starting in october as my Miata will just fall to pieces when it sees salt... but other than that, yeah NorCal isn’t bad to get a car with no rust.

MTV tried to add too much sexual tension via focusing on the love triangle rather than having character development and world definition. It could have been good but it felt forced like watching someone DM for the first time. it could’ve been so much better.

Shit he better be smart as he is the EIC for Hot Rod mag and has been in and around the car scene his whole life. Roadkill is not meant to be a way to put a car together forever, but it serves a purpose that with a little know how or with a lot of stupid and ambition what you can achieve. Look at the Crusher Camaro…

Most high dollar sand cars have cutting brakes on the rear and very few of them run front brakes. The cutting brakes effectively allow you to steer with the front off the ground. Think of it as manual torque vectoring.

Because there are no regulations to do so. Plus no one really does. The most you see is hand restraints so your arms stay in the car when it rolls. Also the cages are usually designed to give lots of head room so nobody's head gets close to the bars.

A front wing won't do shit to keep tha front down. 1600 horsies running through paddle tires equals a very light front. Plus that motor is hanging out the rear just for the rear bias to do wheelies. Shit even if it was front engine it'd probably pull the front up easily.

Rust only exists by the beach…

The motor is about $30-45k probably more, the chassis has to be somewhere north of $50k to be properly engineered to handle the suspension and power loads plus to protect the occupants in the event of a high speed roll. Then you have another $15k+ for the suspension. All in all $170k seems reasonable.

My bad,forgot that a hydrogen comes off a methyl to give the hydroxyl group room. I would’ve caught it if I just would have gone with my normal convention of writting the groups out. D’oh!

“Sure, that’ll get you pretty drunk,”

That would take all the rat rods and hot rods off the road. And you don’t see cops lining up to ticket and impound them at car shows...

The wide track and long travel suspension doesn’t make it illegal to drive. The actual bug it was built from was probably pre-73 so anything goes motor wise. really the most illegal thing they could get him for is noise violations for running open headers. Maybe the lack of fenders and/or mud flaps but that’s it. as…

Just plastidip the Aston in high vis Orange and lobby tire rack to sponsor your articles/videos for a set of snows and then test out the whole unlimited mile warranty. Or maintain the potential for sale and not drive the car in winter when jack holes are out and about trying to kill everyone.

So what they're saying is that they made a pedal that gives foot massages?

Right? I guess I can count myself lucky for seeing a few R32's aR33's and a couple of R34's on the road back in the MotorEX heyday.

bugs with huge motors and lots of travel are easy to be legal as anything pre 73 doesn’t need a smog. Look at how all the t-bucket roadsters are legal and pretty much any other hot rod. the long travel trucks and wide track pre-runners are a little harder to get by with as they need smogs, but in some ways the land of…

I like it when people print out an ad for a different car to show you what they could get. At that time I just tell them no and that they should get the other car.

And then pot holes become an issue. Why not just get winter tires and not put salt into the asphalt? I'd rather not deal with rust all year round and the potential for huge holes full of gravely asphalt just because idiots don't think they need winter tires.

They double Czech them?
