...you just made me realize I spent more on my iRacing simulator setup than my team did on our LeMons race car, all-inclusive.

The first computer he said is the the same as bringing a 1960s Cadillac Coupe DeVille to an autocross, and the latter is the same as bringing a rental go-kart to Bonneville.

Grinding Gears: Is there a good adblocker for Android nowadays? Whoever’s running the GMG sites have noticeably loaded up the mobile sites with a metric shitton of repetitive ads from extremely questionable sources.

Dude, my head’s still spinning from the change in tone going from “individual” to “manager” in a completely unrelated industry (healthcare!). I spent seven years trying to stand out and the moment I was promoted the entire tone shifted from.”you need to prove your worth to this company everyday” to “You made it! Live…

Invisible walls are such lazy videogame design.

But now’s the perfect time for people to have rolling shitboxes. They’re stocked up on toilet paper and are gonna need to drive around to tamp down going stir crazy; it’s a perfect trio!

More importantly, keep the same commentators they have during real NASCAR races, or bring back some of the driver-commentator family pairs for fun. It’d be genuinely hilarious listening to Darrell Waltrip and Ned Jarrett try and make sense of it all while Michael Waltrip and Dale Jarrett know plenty about it.

“We thank you for joining us for NBC’s coverage of NASCAR. Coming up next, it’s Ice Dancing to the Hits of Motown!”

If IndyCar and NASCAR were smart, they’d get in touch with iRacing and run televised simulator races the next couple weekends. Not for points of course, just exhibition with reasonable prize pools to put something on those TV timeslots.

Is that 6 gallons for drinking, or cleaning? Either way it wouldn’t hurt to grab another pallet.

Neutral: I bought a couple hundred dollars worth of food this to fill up my pantry, but that’s only because I literally just bought the place and needed to fill my pantry from zero anyway. One cannot live on pretzels and beer alone...but I sure did try.

Even tougher when there’s no 401K to speak of, but you’ve got a nice installment plan going from your three-day ICU stay two years ago that’s on track to be paid off by 2024.

Bullseye. I thought about snow tires but there isn’t much reason to do that since they do keep up with the roads here in southern NH after snowstorms, and with WFH options for the couple of days a year I can’t get to the office, there’s no critical juncture that calls for snow tires.

This one’s just a few thousand miles from being a parts car. Someone (or more likely multiple someones) got to enjoy the hell out of this for what it is, but it just wasn’t well maintained nor did the modifications help that in any way.

Why would a dealership be more willing to get you into a brand new vehicle versus an older cheaper vehicle?

FIAT: We’re so good at making bad cars, even the electric ones stain your garage!

Hmm! A Crosstrek was on the shortlist when I was shopping cars a few years ago, primarily due to the available stick shift, but the 2.0's torque and power output was so low I didn’t give it a chance. This might convince me to give it another look when I’m ready to buy next since it doesn’t seem like Mazda’s going to…

You lost me at the circa-2004 Chinese chassis and body. That’s the era of Chinese motoring from which the Brilliance BS6 came and promptly crumpled into a jagged coffin after its first EuroNCAP crash test. If I absolutely had to have an EV for $6k, I’d peruse for Nissan Leafs, Smart fortwo electric drives, hell even…

Porsche offered me a chance to drive the 2020 Porsche Taycan

Agreed it seems pretty obvious, but news agencies and media can’t report conclusively unless a suspect has been proven guilty. If they said she was drunk but it turns out to have been the result of something different, Jalopnik could be held liable for slander.
