I owned a V6 for about 3 years, and it’s a very linear powerband, super easy to drive but, you need very, very short gears. I was able to go from 3.15 to 3.55 but I really needed 3.73 or shorter. The V6 models are actually insane values if you don’t care about raw HP but you HAVE to find at least a 3.73 rear end or…

But that’s the whole thing. F1 isn’t just about racing and wrenching. It’s about all aspects of motorsport. It’s what elevates it above everything else as the pinnacle of motorsport. It’s an arms race where you get to put a person in the rocket you built. I mean think about when McLaren first introduced carbon…

Sainz and Lando are such an awesome pair. They seem like actual mates and they work together beautifully. I don’t think McLaren really has a regular sniff of the podium until after the 2021 regulation changes but I’m hoping Sainz and Lando can stay together. It’s crazy, McLaren have the drivers they need to make some…

Also worth noting that Danny and Max were in a classic “who is the favorite child?”situation, with RBR lying to Danny’s face that they felt he was still a race-winner and possible #1 when it was obvious that they were grooming Max. Horner lied as usual (RBR like to use Machiavellian tactics) and Max knew he was the…

The crash in pre-season testing broke Gasly. You could see in his racing that he was tentative and didn’t have the killer instinct. Like falling off a bike and being afraid to peddle faster when you get back on. 

Yeah the rain didn’t actually stop completely until like the last 5-6 laps. The soft tire thing started when Haas pitted early in the race and took a chance on the rain ending (it didn’t) and threw on slicks as a kind of gamble. Everyone else kind of copied that (RBR put on mediums for Max to try to split between…

Yeah but it’s way cooler to bash F1 and call it boring for stars on the internet. A bunch of people going “Hmppph I’M NOT IMPRESSED”, when in reality, if they had to do that job themselves, they’d probably end up breaking equipment and in the ER.

Yea, I like the part of the quote about mechanical watches. It’s obvious that there is a market for manual sales, but the buyers are usually hardcore enthusiasts more often than not. Instead of automakers looking at a manual equipped model as an afterthought, you can tailor-make trim levels that maximize profits but…

I think it was called Fanzone or something? I think it was a fan from each team of that fixture and they commentated the whole game, with a bunch of friendly banter. I remember watching them in college. 

We wouldn’t be here if people just read the report. Not even the whole thing, I got about 120 pages in and it was obvious that it was crime time all the way up and down the ladder. Our country is so obsessed with entertainment that we expect politics to be theater. When the President gets a BJ everyone puts on their…

You could probably get a decent Turbo R for about twice as much, which ain’t that bad. CP for me, I adore old Bentleys more than most people, but this is a bad way to spend $7500. 

Someone call CPS because Ferrari forgot about one of their children. Seriously, Charles can’t have done anything to deserve this treatment and he’s such a chill guy, he just stays professional and lets it roll off his back. He’s my favorite driver at the moment, and I can’t wait to tell my grandkids about the decade…

If the only thing you care about in a F1 race is the winner, I don’t think you’re as big of a fan as you think you are.

The Touareg walked so the Bentayga can run. 

This was fascinating, thanks!

Are you responsible for offspring? Perfect family car. No children? Idk it’s big and comfy and has a good stereo. The beauty of the Charger imo, is that at its core, it’s just a big-ass family sedan with enough space for like a family of 6. 

Porsche has more flavors than Baskin Robbins. Everyone complaining about the 4-cyl turbo? Here’s a Spyder and GT4 to shut you folks up. Brilliant really, Porsche can’t really miss these days.

I saw the movie The Invitation yesterday on Netflix and the whole time it reminded me of the NXIVM saga. It just fascinates me how people so wealthy could be brainwashed into this type of stuff. 

Beyonce gave a legendary performance with a marching band like a week ago. Like I mean a top 3 greatest performance of a popstar/band with a marching band accompaniment (which Beyonce probably claims 2 out of 3 spots on that list). Doing a typical awards show performance with a pepto pink band for a mindless pop…

She didn’t forget, but she definitely forgives you. My dad passed away when i was 16 and I went through the all too familiar teenage angst phase. My mother and I have an iron clad bond, but I know she’s never forgot some of the not nice things I said as a Misfits shirt wearing pizza face emo teenager. But she forgave…
