Yes, you have to be able to egress the car within a relatively short period of time, but it's not easy and requires practice... and I think what your talking about is the scene from the movie 'Driven' where Kip Pardue has to get out of the car to show Sylvester Stalone that he was dumb enough to drive his CART racecar…

When I'm driving, I pretend that I'm either Steve Mcqueen in the movie Le Mans, or to a much greater extent, Ayrton Senna. I have been known to don a helmet when I'm using a convertible, go driving irresponsibly fast over a windy mountain road, and swear at other (slower) motorists in Portuguese.

Terrible accident... But on the bright side: she now looks like a James Bond Villain!

Safety. I've driven Formula Vee and Formula Ford cars, and they're pretty hard to get in and out of quickly. I hear tell from some people that have purchased retired F1 cars, they're pretty much custom built for the drivers, fit like a glove, and lots of practice is required just to get in and out of them.

Perhaps Pininfarina wanted to show the mock up... you know; because Eric Clapton has the actual car.

If you want a good starting point, I could sell you one of my older frames.

I wouldn't use a kids frame... that's just a dangerous idea. I've actually stopped re-purposing old BMX frames, and have gone to making full customs. I'm in the CAD phase on my new design, and will start build the new frame as soon as I've congregated all of the parts and materials I need. I plan on it being a small…

There's tons of amazing (and infrequently) traveled roads in the SLV. Empire grade, 236 (from the stop sign heading into the park) Quail Hallow (either side), I went down Jameson Creek a couple times. Unfortunately, the most current iteration of my bike is broken. I was coming down the lower half of 9 (236 to the…

Go for the Vanagon. I have one, and several of my friends have them. Rear engine rear wheel drive. You can do a mad turbo diesel swap like my buddy Joe, especially good if you have a westy (you'll need all that low end grunt to to get that extra weight up hills).

I used to tear that road up in my Scirocco and on my Suzuki a few years ago.

Correct, correct, and those assholes make the one time you can drive your car briskly up the road without getting stuck behind some slo-zo flat-lander, a dangerous ordeal.

Basically from the the fish hook to the lookout is overrun with the little bastards after midnight. There's better roads for drifting, but none of them are good enough at it, so the have to hog up a good driving road.

My pick is Hwy 9 in northern California during the mid afternoon, in late summer. This is one of the most amazing drivers roads in the state. Long, curvy, challenging, and unforgiving. Many of my friends have lost cars and motorcycles to this beast, a couple of them lost their lives. You can't let your guard down, or…

I never said it was a bad car, I just said it wasn't the greatest drivers car. I've driven a fully restored Delorean, and it was plenty of fun, but the performance just wasn't amazing... I have two 80's Volkswagens and a 70's Porsche that'll run circles around it all day.

Hey man, if you're going to try to tell me off (or whatever it is you're doing) please formulate a coherent sentence with at least half decent spelling and grammar. I had to read your shit three times before I even got the gist of what you were saying.

There's a bunch of cars that I get the vapors from (sometime I'll tear up... not joking). Among the cars that make me emotional: Ferrari Daytona, Ferrari 250 GTO, Ferrari 328, Alfa Romeo Montreal, BMW Isetta, Honda az600, Porsche 550 Spyder, Volvo p1800es wagon, Lamborghini Gallardo (any of them) and the car that…

Atom.

Right!? I live in America, so getting my hands on one is a pain in the ass. But a track full of these zippy little bastards would be amazing!

Sure, I've had dumb accidents too... but never in a straight line, never off the line, never this dumb, and certainly not in a legendary super car.

Mario Andretti... nice name drop.
