Right? If Andrew Zimmerman is still walking around without a fear for his life, nobody will do anything to this guy.

I would pay 1k every year to not have the assholes come at for me for my old ass tuner car.

It’s an S-class though...  It’s always been expensive and heavy...

Reminds me very much of my cx5, a capable compact SUV minus the EV stuff. TBH most vehicles fall into this category. Looking at the auto landscape around here, there are a lot of plain jane SUVs, CRVs, rav4, rogue etc. Aside from the rent out program, this car doesn’t seem all that different.

“Ford identified the root cause of the alleged defect as interference between the valve and piston within the 2.7-liter EcoBoost engines”

you joke, but this track does seem to have more tight left turns than right ones. Do setups on F1 cars have to be symmetrical? seems like a driver might be able to benefit from being able to turn left harder than right on this circuit... but I don’t know anything about aerodynamics or tire degradation in general, let…

I drive a TDI so I’ve been monitoring the situation. What’s odd is that the price difference between Diesel and gasoline is so high. Normally it’s been a bit lower than the cost of premium, sometimes wandering down close to 87 even, but now it’s about $0.70 higher than premium. What gives?

If I had private jet money, the last thing on my mind would be world domination, because that takes work. Also, there is no way I could own a private jet and race, let alone be World Champion in F1 cars.

That’s a big hope, but there will be more truck drivers in 10 years, not less. The world will get increasingly globalized, and shit still needs to be moved from place to place. Maybe self driving trucks will do some of the driving, but it’s a fairy tale to think it’s going to be a revolution in the next decade. 

If I were rich I’d buy this, but only ironically. It would have one purpose: to drive my daughter to school in an effort to teach her humility.

The “professional courtesy” thing among cops needs to stop. Forever. Seriously, do these bastards truly have pride in their profession if they are helping peers get away with crimes that they are intensely trained to identify and prevent? If anything, they should be proud to weed out and eliminate from their ranks any…

Heck, drive around any major research university. You’ll see loads of brand new grad students/postdocs from abroad who have either never driven before or never driven on the right-hand side of the road and definitely should have more training before getting behind the wheel here. To be fair, the previous sentence…

I have a nice idea how to fix this “problem”. Exactly 5 minutes before the qualifying/race starts a coin is flipped. The coin decides if the oval is going to be driven clockwise or counterclockwise. The cars cannot be modified in any way after the direction has been decided.

I always thought Hummers were off the table once you got married.

I dont blame the organizers for not refunding, if they want to keep a race there they probably couldnt afford to refund after having paid the fees.  The FIA should have done the refunds.  I was at the 2006 USGP tire debacle and I got my tickets refunded from Michelin plus free seats for the next year.

Seems like that extension cord is a trip and fall lawsuit just waiting to happen,. He needs to secure that cord with some gaffer tape.

Tucks his ears into flatbrim hats.

Cool, so we’re going to have way more expensive, heavy, flaky cars with more distracted drivers “in control” of them. Swell. Just swell.

1000% disagree.
