All the smug electric car owners are starting out this emergency with a full battery. As long as they have a long range car they are golden. Short range car?  You gonna die.

The wild thing is how quickly the highways devolved. I was just in Florida on Saturday and the roads were clear, same with Atlanta when I was driving through on Sunday. By Monday, I heard from my connections down south that I-75 turned into a parking lot, which is nutty. Seems I somehow got in and out of Florida…

That’s Rig Stig

Oh wow there’s loads

Chinese cousin

Trucker Stig

Let’s not forget that Stig comes from a very large family with cousins across the globe. Big Stig, African Stig, Australian Stig, etc...

I would say technically yes, but practically no. the size changes are part and parcel to an upgrade to slicks.

I always found it shameful they didn’t offer a version of it with the Contour SVT drivetrain. I’ve never found it hideous looking, but never thought it was a good looker either.

Shhh! It’s really funny to hear all the teeth on second gear shear off and rattle about. And whatever lunatic built this thing will definitely be putting it on YouTube.

Ford, through SVT, offered a kit to convert a Focus to a V8 rwd setup. If I remember correctly it was about $10k back in the day, and didn’t include the engine/transmission, but did include the rear end and all other parts necessary for the conversion. There were a few of these done up. Fast as hell, but early 2000s…

Looking at the mostly stock interior im guessing the IRS just doesn’t fit as well.

I’ve seen plenty of stout track cars with solid rear axles, but it’s far from ideal- especially when they were replacing the entire drivetrain and could have put absolutely anything back there. There’s a reason why Ford eventually went to an IRS for the Mustang. Lack of rear camber adjustment is a big limiting factor…

Everyone’s taking the wrong approach with their responses.

Looking at the bare metal diff cover inside of the black fiberglass kinda feels like I’m staring into its butthole.

Paint it purple and dye your hair green and write “DAMAGED” in Sharpie on your forehead.

But then you get the stock, bland Corvette interior and it ruins the vibe.

I mean, I hate it, but it kind of works in a horrible over the top way, in that it’s fully committed to being all gaudy and bad.

Funny how police departments can suddenly find all kinds of reasons to fire a cop who enforces the law on rich folks.

See, he hasn’t learned yet that the job of the cops is to enforce the law for the Rich not against them. He hasn’t learned how to be a happy little stormtrooper yet. He’ll be fired soon enough if he doesn’t though.
