sucks for MotoGP because Philip Island always produces an excellent race.

but Melbourne is basically Monaco without the glamour.  a bad race on a track where it is impossible to pass.  happy to see it go, hope they replace it with a track where actual racing can happen (Korea? Sazuka? Turkey? Hockenheim?)

very gattaca.

danny ric is channeling vettel’s last 6 years.

there is a reason the Subaru is the state car of NH, Maine and Vt.

try living in the far northeast for a few winters, driving our shitty, mountainous, unplowed roads and you will understand why.

can you get the new one with a stick?

the foo fighters are a low budget nickleback coasting on the ashes of Kurt Cobain.

oh look, the daily Elon hit piece. your unrelenting obsession is really getting Trumpian.

completely unrelated to cars of course.

did Elon touch you in a bad place Bradley?

patents only last 20 years.  trademarks are forever (if enforced consistently) and copyright is effectively forever

the rounded A-pillar to roof transition really blows the whole design to crap. stands out like a boil.  should at least have a nod to the sharp crease of the ur-Quattro

since it is a white kid, the cop will at a minimum receive a harsh verbal rebuke from his sergeant as opposed to a fist bump.

hope you filed the patent before you posted.  some chucklehead has already read this and started trademarking product names and lining up injection molding suppliers.

this sounds like the perfect start of a Lemons arbitrage scheme!

buy an 850, cheap, pull the engine/trans and part out the rest
buy a non-running MGB cheap, part out everything but the body and frame.
install safety equipment and engine, die a firey death!

really? because my local ford dealer has probably $5 million worth of F-150 inventory sitting in the parking lot unlocked all day every day. people drive up, open the doors, hop in, go from truck to truck... salesmen generally let you have a solid 10 minutes before they walk up and start trying to sell you.

would be nice in the US Virgin Islands, where they drive on the wrong side of the road, the paved roads are absolute shit and a large fraction of the roads are both unpaved and also shit.

I assume you’ve been to a car dealership before.  not like they have razorwire around the lot.  generally they are all accessible for drive through 24/7 so it wouldn’t be hard to come in during off hours...

given that it was a hoax staged for clicks, does it also not seem likely that the airbag coming off was a setup (i.e. he removed the clips so he could make the video) precisely to drive clicks?

I mean.....

“which in both cases you will visit alot.”

FTFY.

if you’re gonna be there anyway, you might as well be comfortable :)

ooooaaaaahhh Miura.... I am pretty sure that _is_ a lambo, dude. but I love this car in the orange or green colors. silver washes out the detail.

glad it’s the 289 and not the cartoon car 427. much more tasteful.

the E-type is perfect, except it should be the convertible. series 1 is the only series.


what is it with car…

<gratuitous> pretty sure that’s a Lambo, dude. </gratuitous>

my only problem with this is that they made it ugly. the original design is very pretty, and this one just looks like they slapped a bunch of aero bits that hurt the aesthetics.

would much rather have a Valkyrie super light where they take the base Valkyrie…

it is _Exactly_ the same concept as the BMW I3 and every Diesel/Electric locomotive ever made.

nothing weird here. just good engineering. gas car engines produce massively more power than needed to cruise even at highway speeds. better to run a gas engine at its most efficient speed/load point driving a generator to…

it was mercedes that complained because they ignored improving their pit stops because they had a second a lap faster car and didn’t need them.

now that they need them, suddenly red bull is “cheating”

bullshit. red bull has not had _one_ unsafe release in 2 years. you know who have had unsafe releases? all the teams not…
