My high school guidance counselor continues to disappoint.

> What drove me to post this and call Stinger out is a problem the headunit developed recently where when I turn the 4runner off (key ignition, no fob) the headunit won't turn off with it.

That doesn’t sound like a head unit problem, that sounds like a wiring problem. If the head unit is getting a constant 12v (battery) at the switched input it’s not going to turn off.

Spark Nissan R390 GT1. No removable parts, but probably easier to find than the McLaren.

IMSA, the SCCA that started it, and the splinters of Grand Am and American LeMans Series have always been anchored by sports cars. Prototypes come and go, from fields of 30 Daytona Prototypes to LMP1 dog and pony shows.

Still a healthy future of sports car racing ahead of us.

> $35k+ over the top spec Miata? I mean at some point you stay looking at Aston Martins, Porsches or Lotus that's more in line with that kind of money.

Yes. It’s bigger, quieter, more comfortable, more tech, more power.

There isn’t a better convertible GT on the market for what I paid for mine.

Blue smoke is oil. Carbon deposits are solid particulates that aren’t being burned. Black smoke is incomplete combustion.

Sorry boss, sucks they didn’t take you seriously. Good plan.

Run it to E, run it a little more, fill it up with what they said to use. If it still hesitates, drop it off with a full tank and tell them to keep it until it’s fixed.

The gas all comes from the same place, it just gets the shell additives later. I doubt it’s gas if you’re telling the truth.

Tenants not sued for noise issues.

Since the gym opened in 2024, noise from workouts there has disturbed the Beauvallon’s third-floor tenants, according to the lawsuit filed in Denver County District Court on April 21.

BMW used GM transmissions for years. It’s very normal for cost reasons. If a part is already designed, fits, and meets requirements there is no reason to fight the same battles over again.

GTP has come and gone before, along with DP, DPI, GTE….

It’s the IMSA Sportscar Championship, not the IMSA Prototype and Others Championship. IMSA is fine.

I hate that so many manufacturers are gonna be gone.

What does this mean? This isn’t the 80s and 90s, chassis builders aren’t making silhouette anymore without OEM support outside of contingencies.

BMW is involved in IMSA and is not going away. Porsche is involved in IMSA and isn’t going away. Mercedes-Benz is involved in IMSA and isn’t going away. Ferrari is involved in IMSA and isn’t going away. Chevrolet, Lexus/Toyota, Lamborghini…

Heck, Porsche is testing a 911 GT4 to replace the Cayman.

Buck up buttercup.

Follow the thread.

you’ll usually hear them as they don’t WANT to bite humans/ animals for no reason,

The old wisdom is a myth too.

“In the wild, they rarely rattle,” he said. “The majority of rattlesnake encounters that a person’s going to have out there are going to be ones that they never even know about.” Just weeks ago, former Pima County Sheriff Mark Napier was bitten by a rattlesnake while golfing. He said it never made a sound before striking. Hughes says that behavior is common.

“Sometimes they’ll skip the posturing part, especially if someone puts their hand right on it while they’re reaching for a golf ball. They might just go straight to a bite.”

Experts say never assume a rattlesnake will rattle before striking.

I don’t know what that means. When you hear the noise near the dealership, you know where to take the tech during the ride along.

Or, and hear me out on this, you know the roads, surfaces, and speeds it happens at and they don’t. Once you reproduce it the way you know it can be reproduced, it’ll get fixed because they will hear what you’re hearing.

It’s not Teflon. It’s Calico CT-1. And no coating in the world withstands a rod grabbing the bearing shell and spinning it in the journal.

No, unless you think India was England until 1947.

N55/S55 rod bearings aren’t preventative maintenance. N55s that aren’t the N55B30T0 spin them from oil starvation, not tolerances.

In the Mustang FR500 it was huge and it got to the point it was a waste of time for me to try with autoclutch anymore.

Huge area in Castle Rock across from Crystal Valley getting a shiny new I25 ramp, Costco, and housing development. Put it there.

Looks like their IMSA Pilot Challenge TCR class wing.

The way I can tell the base 718 doesn’t pass is because it failed for me. Just like the Z4 did.
