May 20, 20179 yr Took almost two hours and an orbital buffer to remove cone residue from the rocker panels (or at least the visible parts) but my car is looking pretty good and not battle worn. Of course I'll probably fuck it up in 2 weeks at the next round but at least the baseline will be better. Washed the other cars too. Love the relatively cheap Meguiar's stuff gives such a nice shine for basically no work and their scratch stuff is great.
May 24, 20179 yr you know the answer then... Indeed. Indeed Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk
May 29, 20179 yr Looks like Volkswagen is bringing the Golf R spec back to the US for the 2018 model year. No price point or real timing offered... https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/auto/2018-volkswagen-golf/preview/ HS
May 30, 20179 yr The new Audi RSTT definitely has my interest. Love the tweaked styling. 0-60 in 3.6 seconds, from a small 5 cylinder. The Jaguar F type SVR, with it's 575 ponies is only .1 second quicker. And love the diamond stitched interior!
May 30, 20179 yr Audi's interiors are impeccable. The one thing I struggle with them over is how much they charge for add'l power. They go crazy differentiating the sporty version from the base version when it comes to the pocket book... HS
May 30, 20179 yr Author I have a friend with the old TTrs. That 5 cylinder is the real deal. I have contemplated picking up a RS3 when they hit the market.

May 30, 20179 yr Ford is doing a 2018 Focus RS special edition with a LSD. If that doesn't knock it out of class in the BS class it will be a total ringer. Dammit I was committed to the ST for 2 more seasons. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk
May 31, 20179 yr Be strong, DH! I have a similar dilemma. Love my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT. AWD with the 6.4L HEMI and the 8-speed trans with paddles and big Brembos. Maybe 11K miles. They're coming out with the Hellcat (supercharged) version of the Jeep called the Trackhawk...ugh. Must......be......strong HS

June 3, 20179 yr Stickered up. Car gained 5hp. Edit: I wanted to do "MWIA Racing: Sleeping with the sponsor" but the kids ask too many darn questions.

June 4, 20179 yr Won my class (again only 3 cars) by about a second and a half. Not a good drive and was barely in the top half on PAX. Still it was fun to go fast. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

Porsche PDK and BMW DCT cars are quite a bit faster than their manual counterparts. Edited June 5, 20179 yr by EdipisReks1
June 5, 20179 yr Quicker or Faster? δv/δt or Vmax? And yet the quickest car was the least fun. I'm glad they took your advice and decided not to make such a worthless comparison /s
June 8, 20179 yr For fans of the rotary engine... https://www.hemmings.com/blog/2017/05/31/four-cycles-three-chambers-60-and-50-years-dual-anniversaries-for-the-wankel-rotary-engine/?refer=news HS The post above I thought was posted days ago...LOL. Oh well. This one was intended for today....with some luck. Made me chuckle. HS
June 17, 20179 yr Looks like the new Honda Civic Type R is headed stateside. There's a convenient vid in the photo gallery for the less than motivated. https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/auto/2017-honda-civic-type-r-preview/ One thing Honda can do is build motors. Really impressive mills they make IMO. Not a big fan of the looks, but that's just me....old school. HS
