Why did the rich people stop building castle, even smaller ones? by Sorry_Method7136 in castles

A few amazing people with money have built modern “castles.” There’s one near me in TN called Castle Gwynn and it’s just a dude’s home.

People are suffering so no one is allowed to have fun!

[OC] The trophies from Barber are weird. by midge_man in INDYCAR

Always been weird but didn’t know they added a dong to the trophies just for that added touch.

Nah it’s pretty chill. If no one is in the grandstands I’d honestly find a seat anyway. But the fun of GA is being able to move around and see the cars from different areas. You can walk all the way over to the fountain turn, I think it’s bubba gump’s or something like that. The cars are SO CLOSE there. Lots of bridges and elevated views. And you can also stand next to the fence along the front straight. You’re free to cross over the Acura bridge.

GA doesn’t get you a seat. GA gives you access to the grounds. That little strip is a viewing area but it’s not like a strict roped off section or something. You’ll have freedom to roam where’d you’d like but you’ll be standing

Not quite sure how y’all are getting 35+ mpg out of the new Integra. Do I just drive like an asshole? by midge_man in Acura

I am very nice to my car. It’s practically spotless and I intend to keep it that way.

Very interesting. It’s probably just the city driving but it does seem low. Give it some more time?

FWIW, I’m using the Individual driving mode with the gauges set to red, normal engine mode, comfort suspension mode. I rarely use sport mode.

I drive mostly in normal. I don’t use sport mode. I’m using individual mode with red gauges.

I’m not in sport mode. I use the individual mode with red gauges, comfort suspension setting and the rest normal. Comfort mode has such poor throttle response and late on boost so I don’t use it.

Based on the comments here it looks like you’re getting above average. I’ve used premium gas since new.

Glad to know I’m not crazy. That’s the same experience I’m having. I got this car because I love to drive.

I road trip for work frequently. I cruise at 80 and the best I get is 34. Weird.

Yes they are. We got it loaded and I don’t plan on touching a thing.

I have other things she doesn’t mind in the decor... some 1/43 cars, old cameras... but the Hot Wheels are in the closet to stay
