almost 50 year old me loves a good manual even in stop and go. But if i were wanting an auto, a honda auto is not what id want. Id be shopping for a Golf R with the DSG auto and awd which is likely significantly quicker than the integra. Integra has a better interior however and looks better and likely handles a…

Heck, they shouldn’t stop there!

“Bono, my tires are gone.”
“Felipe, Fernando is faster than you.”
“Ericsson hit us.”

Not a Hamilton fan, and that was a pretty fucked call.

You’ve left out one rather important piece of information in that Masi violated not one, but TWO regulations on that final lap. If any lapped cars are allowed through, the race is not to be restarted until the end of the following lap. If the rules were followed, the race would have ended under caution after those…

If we’re requesting mugs with radio chatter then I want Kimi! “Leave me alone. I know what I’m doing.”

Agreed.

Still don’t understand why Rivian spent so much time and money trying to establish themselves in California. You have a place in Michigan, in Plymouth which is a nice area, and access to arguably the largest talent pool of automotive engineers on the planet. You can pay them less because it’s Michigan, and you pay…

It’s hilarious that both sides of the US political spectrum would freak out at UK-style MOT inspections:

You can’t legislate technology into existence. What happens when the sensor gets dirty? Can it measure temperature, gas composition, velocity? What stops the presumed impaired driver from using a can of duster gas or a battery powered fan to blow cabin air across it? How does it handle the whole inside of the car…

When do your janky car mods become criminal negligence? Guessing this guy put some ebay spacers on or something dumb which caused this.

Michael Bay couldn’t have done better.

Yeah...launch is different. I was part of the product marketing/volumes group, aka people who could actually make things happen if enough adults listened. But they were all too focused on building yet another SUV to give a fuck. Ah well.

I suspect the insurers of the show have something to do with the decision.  Killing talent is an expensive proposition.

His career, and a perfectly fine programme were forever changed because he was held to a standard to which most would not hold their politicians to.

Incidentally, no longer employed at Ford. Most of the enthusiast marketers are gone. And the result...well, you see the lineup.

I still love the orange.

When it was being dropped for the U.S., I was one of the few people internally at Ford who tried to keep the business case going. Almost happened, but then didn’t :(
