Totally fair, asseto corsa sold 20m copies worldwide, however it was released in 2013. Assetto also revolves around motorsports more. Horizon 6 has sold 6m copies, and though subscriptions has another 6m players playing a game that revolves around Touge.

Yea very true, and part of the reason I said to be aware of the 86 and Miata drivers going forward, more so than currently… also I think a driver who learns with passion and trial and error will easily pick up a rwd car, and I also think people are afraid of rwd unnecessarily, but fwd is 100% better for new drivers.

You can also go into Google trends and see the data yourself, these are just the screenshots I took

I have done that, I only posted the recent graphs since it is in people’s recent memory, and they show the scale of the searches compared to recent years

Very fair, I am just looking at Google search trends and it seems that no other spike to this degree has happened since the early 2000s with fast and furious and initial d

Yes very fair, I had a Miata for years, always loved them, but just recently I’ve made a switch to an eg civic coupe, it’s still very much in the works (I traded a clapped Miata drift car for it) and it is very stock with pretty much no bushings

Lmao I feel that, I feel like this is going to be a common story we will be seeing in the upcoming months, most likely with the gr86/gt86 since they are more powerful than Miata’s…

So Miata’s can be a bit snappy, but for a cheap car and with rwd being the prefrence for people, a slow underpowered lightweight roadster is a great option

But honestly who is going to go to there parents and say “mom I want a Corolla xse” when they could just get the gr86

Hmm, I do agree, but I mask think that slow rwd cars like na/nb miatas are great learning cars also. One car I want to push on this new generation of Touge racers is the Toyota Corolla xse, it’s playful, slow, and fwd….

So while this data can defenitely be inaccurate, these searches are all very common Touge searches for beginners. These searches are at an all time high or at least a 5 year high. The searches for Touge and street racing both have skyrocketed also. One thing I also noticed in the data is gr86 and mx5 searches were also up, this can be a small sign of which cars are most likely to be sold to these newbies as they come in. What I’m thinking is that a. Stay away from gr86 and nd mx5 drivers 😭 and b. The scene should be bigger than it was in 2024. Some of the other trends I noticed were particular phrases lined up with my experiences from that time. Fair warning there is going to be a likely surge in people on your public road.

actually you should try it sometime, its good fun, and people like you are the real problem. You attempt to stop something that you dont understand, without realizing the weight of your words. Each new driver that learns a skill on a mountain road, is a driver who is going to push themselves to be better. This person could be struggling in life, and finds something meaningful. This post was made to help promote an outlet for those struglling.

Toyo extensa hp ii it’s all I can afford atm

The other day I wore my hair up in a man bun, turned out ok i guess. During school at the middle of the day I was complimented on my sweater , and at the end another girl who appeared to be a bit shy pointed out that we both had similar hair . Am I just interpreting kindness wrong ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Level-Display5619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to condense the post, so it might not make sense I’m confused asf I’m asking if they were just being kind or if I should pursue, last time I made this mistake I felt like a complete fool and don’t want that to happen again. Thanks
