All of a sudden, I found myself in love with the world, so there was only one thing I could do:
was ding a ding dang, my dang a long racecar.

It's a love affair. Mainly jebus, and my racecar.

What's this?

Sorry but a dumpy fwd sedan converted into a mid engine rwd V8 monster is loving awesome. Yeah they made a few poor design choices aesthetically, who loving cares. Everyone saying "wrong thread" because of some paint stripes needs to gently caress off out of AI.

And gently caress, a community college project car that (apparently) runs and drives is a miracle unto itself. My old school had a rail dragster that was perpetually taking up one of the racks, engineless; last I heard they were sticking a junk Ford 4.6 in there for display only.

Also the first car to win all three classes and the IoE.

For the record we used to have two threads and it became a huge shitshow with people constantly posting the same thing to both threads or arguments about which thread exactly a car belonged in and it cluttered up the first page. We consolidated them both into this thread as a catch-all for all things automotive and awesome.

Nah, what happened is people bitched so it got split into two different threads, more arguing happened, the other thread died, and everyone forgot about it. Here we are again.

I miss the cell phone pics thread. A lot of my pics don't really qualify as awesome, just kinda neat, rare, or odd. There are some strange things vehicles around the Bay Area still being used as daily drivers.

Love the "well gently caress it, guess I keep driving" reaction. Even though the pit lane is just up and around the corner so maybe that was the thinking.

Or do you have to do a full lap of the GP track to get to the pit entry?

Pretty sure it was at DN so you have to drive round either to the gp circuit back straight or pull off about a third of the way up that straight where he'd passed. Depending on which layout they're running. I want to see video from the Porsche haha.
