RX-8 Broke Down, Whats My Next Car?

Hint: The battery cover is missing and you need to go back to KarlMarx and tell them it is, they will get you a new one without question and throw it on.

 

Also 9/10 chance you have at least 2 Fuzion OR Ironman (likely 4) tires on your car.

To be fair I didn't really know what was going on, someone said "get in this picture showing your disapproval" and so I hamed it up a little. I blame the director for poor stage direction. I apologize for nothing!

 

I told mike in person: since he bought a rental car he should treat it as such. Put in no more money than what is required to do basic maintenance and sign up for every single track day he can possibly attend. This is his "driver mod" car.

So nice of you to give him permission to do what you want to his car with his money.

Maybe he took it off to improve the flow of electrons, so his alternator doesn't have to work as hard and he saves a few HP. :masturboy:

Who's gonna do more track days, Kerry or Mike? See y'all at mid-o

 

Probably mike because:

 

a) he doesn't have any children

 

b) he's part of Kevan's lemons team, so if Mr. Deux ever gets off the ground I'm sure he'll at least be at the track.

 

That said, I think the next auto-x at circleville is 5/5, and the next open SCCA auto-x at Trails is 6/1 (april and may are SOLO points events - can anybody just show up to those?) so....we'll find out on those days.

They are all Solo points events. Solo is the SCCA's term for autocross competition, as there is only one driver on course at a time. Solo.

 

All of these events are open to all.

 

The next open SCCA event is April 20th at Trails. Come and witness my hairdresser car.

They usually open up registration on motorsportreg.com a couple of weeks in advance. I'm surprised it's not up yet; should be there very soon.

Probably Mike because:

 

a) he has the faster vehicle.

 

FTFY. : gabe :

 

Randy you're a turd.

 

...won't argue that point.

 

I gave Tom those wheels...

 

I (and prob others) was unaware. My bad. I took it as you lol'ing at Tom's offer as in "it's just a V6 lol". Lack of context got me.

I voiced my opinion to get a v8. I still stand by that and would have gotten the older 2011+ s197 5.0 to get it vs the v6 s550. With that being said anyone out there using their car is a winner in my book. I actually think someone tracking a v6 mustang is much cooler than the guy hard parking a gt/350/500. I also find it ironic that the people picking on his car purchase the most drive literal shit boxes, like you've pointed out multiple times.

It more about him talking for over a year about buying a v8 stang and then compromising and buying a v6, and less about the actual v6 in question.

 

I mean, in terms of things to make fun of there is a lot being left on the table: the fact that he bought it at carmax, without the warranty, on a 72 month finance, and it's a rental car color, and nobody is saying shit about it.

 

I'm pretty much done...until he skips an auto-x day to attend some anime, hentai, tentacle porn convention.

If he went out of his range to get a V8 you'd rail on him for making a poor financial decision and ask what his dreams and aspirations are then query about his career game plan. Time to get new hobbies like fixing non-running cars or motorcycles or something. :lol:

He didn't have to go out of his range to get a v8. Aaron, I and a host of other people pointed out a slightly older s197 coyote was within range for him.

 

Speaking of hobbies, how's the forging coming? Haven't seen much knife makes no lately. Seen plenty of high road trolling tho....
