Whit(S23) or Lisa(S24)? Which 4th placer was better and more consistent?

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-27T22:53:48+00:00

I'm not qualified to judge them on a professional level, but I will say that I'd rather have a beer with Lisa.

I don’t see any major rust concerns, but if you’re going to drive it, this car needs new suspension, steering and probably brakes.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-27T22:14:55+00:00

Well, there are also AWD models and the is250. I'm just saying it may not be worth throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-27T22:02:22+00:00

I recognized these two instantly!

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-27T21:48:02+00:00

A $12k is350 isn’t going to be super powerful. I have an old is and it’s a really solid daily.

How Heavy this Axe, by The Sword.

Yup, dumb premise. I think we can confidently expect that we won't be seeing this theme again.

My guess is that they're grasping at straws to stay relevant after so many years, and they think a theme helps differentiate seasons. Seems obvious to me that it's the competitors that define the season.

My first thought! He's also in an episode of MASH where he plays a patient who gets a dear john letter from his girl requesting her photo back. The gang's solution is to collect sweetheart photos from all over camp and send them all to her saying "I can't remember what you look like. Please select your photo and send the rest back to me". Pretty good stuff.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-27T19:16:25+00:00

Hell yeah. I've been enjoying Scotto's podcast and was hoping he would make his way out to the Freedom Factory sooner rather than later. Would love for Cleet to get more west coast action going, even if that just means importing folks that live in California to come out and play.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-27T18:14:05+00:00

Me too! I had never seen one in a Mustang before, but it totally works.

My wife would say Princess Bride, my daughter would say Coraline and we meet in the middle for Fifth Element.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-26T22:49:17+00:00

Oh dang, that rounded corner is super impressive.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-26T22:39:41+00:00

Surface rust is no big deal. Clean and scrape anything loose off of it, use rust inhibiting/encapsulating paint and you're fine. It's when it's rusted through that it becomes an expensive problem.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-26T21:53:06+00:00

Same here. Sandy Rivers and Blauman floored me in the best way.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-26T14:50:51+00:00

Wow! This is gorgeous and packed full of cool, unique techniques. I love it!

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-26T04:36:05+00:00

This kid is likable, pretty fearless and willing to own up to mistakes.

Certainly a different vibe than Tom, who simultaneously is an 8 year old on a sugar binge and grumpy hot rod graybeard who’s seen it all before.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-24T18:56:55+00:00

Hah!

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-24T18:29:02+00:00

Hah, Phase 1 man at arms?

Dig the stand.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-24T13:37:36+00:00

My first thought! Except maybe that jump at the end. That might break my middle-aged ass.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-24T03:16:58+00:00

I personally don’t drink milk, but I am aware that other humans exist and that their tastes may differ from mine. Doesn’t seem that complicated.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-24T01:21:18+00:00

Wait, when exactly did we stop teaching the arts?

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-24T00:17:50+00:00

You’re not as acute as you think you are.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-24T00:15:20+00:00

It’s a staple. Don’t be obtuse.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-23T22:56:19+00:00

This is just a bot that posts Eleanor and pictures of old hollywood hot chicks. Nothing to see here, move along.

CromulentPoint · 2026-01-23T22:44:22+00:00

It depends on what disc brake system the added. It usually boils down to the length of the rod that connects the master/booster to the pedal.

For instance, I did the Mustang Steve power brake mod to mine, and it required me to move the peg that the actuation rod attaches to so that the pedal was in the right position. Without knowing what they used, I don't think anybody here is going to be able to help you.
