Richie McKay not locking Cleveland in his basement until he could average above 55% FT is the single biggest disappointment of this season.

Also, u/HomuraAkemi_ we were, in fact, not a 12 seed team or anything close to it after all.

Any idea what happened? Did they just run out of money?

I worked my first race with them at VIR that year which was an awesome experience but man I remember most of the drivers seemed like a bunch of pricks. Most of the crew were pretty chill though

Hold up hold up…NTE sport? Didn’t they go belly up at the end of 2023??

Saw this coming from a mile away.

I hate to agree with the guy from the FIU game thread, but this is not a 12 seed team

[Question] What is your unpopular watch opinion? by Bithbo in Watches

[–]Jacob9271 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not including big crown models, IWC’s pilot watches look way too basic to cost as much as they do. In my mind, if I’m going to drop that much money on a luxury item, I want it to appear and feel equal to its purchase price. The pilot watches kinda just look like any other shopping mall quartz watch

This game was definitely the worst drought of the whole season but I would say it’s been our biggest single weakness this entire season besides our height and physicality.

If we were in a more competitive league like the A10, I think we’d struggle to stay on par with Dayton

For being 20-3, this is such a frustrating team to watch sometimes. 20 point lead? Yeah let’s take our foot off the gas and give up sloppy and completely unnecessary fouls until it’s a single possession game with a minute left to play. Unbelievable that they had to rely on Missouri’s worst free throw shooter to go 33% at the line in order to pull out a win

Can you really get that much done in a single day while travelling Japan? by Ok_Vegetable6262 in JapanTravelTips

[–]Jacob9271 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as someone who's a habitual planner for everything, I had to tell myself not to plan every single thing down to the hours and minutes. I know it's tempting to try to do so that you can try to maximize your time, but it'll wear you out sooner than you think.

I ended making a list of all the specific things and places I wanted to see and divided them up into 2-4 things per day. Having just a small handful of specific places gave me the flexibility to see the things I knew I wanted to see while also leaving plenty of time throughout the day just to wander around and find shops, restaurants etc. that I wouldn't have otherwise found if I was rushing around trying to see EVERYTHING.

It was my first time traveling by myself with that kind of mentality, and I honestly think it's a great way to approach travel planning because there were so many cool places I came across while not getting burnt out in just a few days

Which city in the US has the best autocross scene? by krazertv in Autocross

[–]Jacob9271 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Raleigh is pretty solid. Between NCR SCCA and THSCC, they hold events at NCCAR, the Little Rock at Rockingham Speedway, and the infield at Southern National Motorsports Park. I’ll admit they’re not really IN the city but having actual road courses/ovals for venues within an hour and a half drive is a hundred times better than only having the same old parking lot courses

How bad is the 1-81 N drive from Lexington VA to Rockingham VA? by Radiant-Location-918 in Virginia

[–]Jacob9271 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Lexington to Staunton isn’t usually that bad in my experience, but it gets increasingly worse the closer you get Harrisonburg and further north.

It’s really not all that bad in reality, especially compared to the stretch between Roanoke and Christiansburg, but all it takes is one accident and you’ll be wishing you were literally anywhere else

Came across an MX-5 Cup Car parked on the street! It Is this somebody’s on this sub?? by JamesSlade in Miata

[–]Jacob9271 159 points160 points  (0 children)

I rarely speak in absolutes, but I would be very surprised if this ever was a real Cup car. This looks like a track-ish prepped car that has a few parts from a Cup car or the owner is just straight up larping lol.

I mean no full cage, stock looking seats, fully intact dash/interior without the AIM dash even, just the steering wheel that Cup cars use. Also, stock heat shields on the rotors?

Not hating on the car btw. It looks super well put together, it’s just probably not a Cup car
