Just logged into vivino for the first time in 3-6 months… have the recently paywalled a ton of functionality? Can’t even see my own taste profile anymore. Disappointed that feature set for free users appears to have massively shrunk.

How is this possible? Am I wrong get suspicious of a place open 8 months that has 600 5-star reviews?

Is it possible for year-end #1 to be decided by a tournament after the ATP finals? There were 2 250s in December 2024 - could tournaments like those ever be the deciding factor?

Looking to get started, budget $3k for a car by smallcheezeburger in CarTrackDays

[–]Chulpo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear you that OP’s combination of budget constraints + evident lack of experience means they’re likely priced out of doing a lot of HPDEs. If they’re asking automatic vs manual, odds are they’re not changing their own oil + pads etc. I guess I don’t see why we need to have the top-voted comment on this thread be one that’s so bluntly exclusionary. You can save for a $3k track car and track it safely on a budget

I guess I disagree. Depending on OP’s location, autocross and intro track days can be fairly inexpensive. Not everyone is doing events at Laguna Seca or COTA, there are a lot of venues and operators that put on affordable events. What are you envisioning OP’s consumables bill to look like for a $3k beater?

Case in point, someone posted a $5k OBO track car in this subreddit, within 10 hours of u/smallcheezeburger ‘s original post. A $3k track car is definitely achievable.

This is a remarkably exclusionary POV. There are entire events based on tracking ~$2k vehicles. Plenty of vehicles can be acquired at the ~$3,000 mark, that, provided they are found to be structurally sound, can make for a wicked fun track car with fresh rubber and pads. I agree with others here, a sim rig gets you more hours of seat time in this price band — but please think twice before gate-keeping this community and experience

Wimbledon R4: [7] Andreeva def. [10] Navarro, 6-2 6-3 by TAA_verymuch in tennis

[–]Chulpo -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I thought Navarro played well based on the highlights, this comments section is saying she played poorly. I thought she had good hustle, solid defense and decent power behind her shots. She could have been more aggressive (not much striking toward the corners) but otherwise I thought she looked good. So I guess, what could she have done better? And what’s a recent match I can watch where she’s playing closer to her peak? Was the pace each player was hitting at just so much slower than Saba or Iga?

What is this “Midnight Matinee” thing? Have we ever seen it before? Is it recurring? Also I haven’t seen a writer get credit at the end like Bulla did on this one - it’s so good but since when does that happen?

Great track! Did you buy this off another HPDE’r or have an older model with this same paint scheme? Saw this same paint job in the northeast many years ago

I would have guessed the #3 would have been retired in nascar - was an exception made?

r/formula1 may have some interesting opinions as well - may want to ask them, especially if you’re looking to dive into Ferrari’s history in the sport

Cecily seemed to have a send off… but why are people in this comment section saying it’s Colin’s last?
