  3. This. I don't see how it could possibly flop over-seas where people see cars as more than appliances. But I can see it flopping in the US because this car isn't big, plush, and two FUCKING tons. Let's hope the enthusiast market sees something special in this and keeps it from flopping. I just worry that with two of them in the market, they might sell well, but be considered a flop by the individual companies. I love this car and would buy one in a heartbeat if FFR wasn't making the 818. But I will say that a BRZ would be a LOT more comfortable than my 818 will be. I've been wanting to get a RWD car to play with, and if I was planning to drive it year round, I'd be in the market for a 2013 BRZ.
  4. Spiders... Now Eagles... We're gonna be sitting our fat asses on the couch until we're glued there like so much year-old halloween candy between the cusions and be unable to stop Mother Nature from turning us into food for her new armies of super animals.
  5. I think the bear was purchased by the team owner. Those guys were so slow, SOMETHING had to be done.
  6. Yeah, it's from across the pond. But it's REALLY heavy in detail and racing tech. I love their wind tunnel articles. I think the online format is only $35. I haven't tried, but you might be able to load it into a reader on a smartphone.
  7. EVO (if it's still around) Racecar Engineering (MUCH MUCH cheaper to get the on-line subscription than getting it in the mail) Grassroots Motorsports
  8. Looks like they're going slightly more serious with this one. I'm looking forward to it.
  9. You should know a hustle when you hear (read) one. Really, if someone gives excuses and wants to do anything more complex than "Give Money, Get Item" I assume they're scamming and drop the deal. Buying and Selling isn't rocket science. If the buyer or seller can't do things simply, I don't trust them.
  10. Started watching the vid. That looks like a hell of a lot of fun.
  11. That's the plan. Though it'd likely be a 2013 or 2014 build as it's not slated to go on sale until just before SEMA 2012.
  12. Well that rules out doing it in the 818. The STI would be my choice then. Though it'd be pretty BA to do it in the Ambulance. :gabe:
  13. I want to do this some day. Not to win, but to enjoy the drive. I take it the only prep/tech is to be sure the car is sound and safe for highway use?
  14. Ahh CR, what would I do without you?
  15. How does he keep the hat on?
  16. I think it's a pretty safe bet that had the cops been called, he would not have received a penalty for his actions on par with the beating he got. It's also very likely that the penalty he would have received would not have been enough to prevent this behavior in the future. Hopefully getting his butt handed to him in direct consequence of his actions will prevent him from committing another hate crime in the future. I would have far less hope if he had just received a fine and a night in jail.
  17. Beat me to it. I'd say he probably shit himself on that near-crash, but more likely he was puckered up so tight he didn't crap for a month.
  18. ..still a hate crime. Guy got what he deserved.
  19. Oh, the kits (Motorsport, Helmet, etc) come very well set up for how they're titled. The motorsport kit comes with the suction mount and tons of permanent mounts, both flat and curved. Even stuck one to my helmet:
  20. Got the 1080p one and it does a great job. That was a very rough surface and I was using the suction cup mount. Sound sucks, but really, you aren't going to get great sound outside of a car at speed without a really expensive microphone. The sound is good enough and would be a little clearer if I had the open back on the housing. (I use the water-tight back to keep the dust out)
  21. Great, probably another 2-ton+ car with bicycle tires. Can they make the cars look any sillier from the front and rear?
  22. Is the shit. :fuckyeah: Having a couple sandwiches with this stuff now and it rocks. http://shop.honeybakedcatalog.com/long.asp?item_id=376&tgs=6972297:26176270&cart_id= Set of all three for $9.99 at Kroger. If it's normally $27, I'm gonna stock up.
  23. USPS bring me my junk mail. If they were to go down to 3 delivery days per week, I wouldn't notice.
