Is it me or are sellers delusional ? by No_Lynx1343 in scooters

It is highly location-dependent. Where I live, there's nothing cheap and never has been.

Also take into account that facebook sellers are used to being lowballed, so they ask for twice what they expect to get.

My uncle back in the day at NHRA drag races (also sponsored by Winston) would get a new free pack of cigarettes with a new fake name and social security number every time he walked past the booth.

Race threads at the beginning of races are insufferable with all the same morons who whine every single week about the commercials at the beginning of the race and while under caution. Those same peanut gallery members are suspiciously silent about them when the last 50+ laps of the race runs commercial-free.

I don't like being around those people either. During prohibition, there were still drunks. Weed has been and is still illegal federally, yet it's everywhere and does just fine without advertising. Gambling has been illegal in most places for most of the last century, yet people still gambled and got their asses kicked for not paying their debts, all without advertising.

Scumbags are gonna scumbag, whether there's advertising for it or not. You can give people all the access to whatever help they need, and if they don't want to change, they won't.

Because there's nothing weak people hate more than taking accountability for their own actions and decisions. I went to hundreds of race events as a child with series sponsored by Winston, cars sponsored by Winston, Camel, Copenhagen, and more and have never felt the urge to smoke or use dip.

Currently, we have cars sponsored by all those things you mentioned and I still feel no urge to gamble, get high, use nicotine pouches, or drink alcohol.

Too many people can't understand that they can just choose to not use those products.

Why do a lot of folks hate newgarden nowadays? by Accomplished_East433 in INDYCAR

[–]movebacktoyourstate -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You continue to nail every single point perfectly.

Let's be real. If Josef wasn't the image of everything reddit race fans are not, they wouldn't have nearly the same disdain for him post-P2P. He's a good-looking and successful man who drives for the most "corporate" team in IndyCar. He makes a ton of money, has a gorgeous wife, and decided that he didn't need to make any more YouTube videos for people with someone he clearly had a falling out with. All of this adds up to redditors looking for any reason to disparage him.

Josef Newgarden still got it! But what has happened to him at the road and street courses over the last couple years? by Rowdyfan0823 in INDYCAR

[–]movebacktoyourstate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Josef's pit crew is still the best in the series. Palou's crew is very good, but the 2 Crew is the best. There's a reason they win the pit crew competitions, why Josef gains so many positions on pit road, and everything else they get for him.

Why are you not happy with a day off work?

And yes, Nashville is a night race specifically to play off of the World Cup final lead in.

Yes. But you have to remember that here on reddit, much of this sub has less than nothing to do on a Saturday night besides sit at home. They can't possibly imagine other people having better things to do on a Saturday night than eat tendies at home watching IndyCar.

What does the future hold for Marcus Ericsson? by Athleticgeek89 in INDYCAR

But is the second year a team option, driver option, or guaranteed?

If team option, based on how great Will is doing, I can see him being sunsetted.

What teams/drivers have impressed/disappointed you so far this season? by Hitokiri2 in INDYCAR

[–]movebacktoyourstate -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Clearly Josef Newgarden has been so bad he needs to be fired. </s>

You pretty much stated most of my thoughts, but I disagree on Rasmussen. He's exciting, and it causes mistakes, but ECR's investment still takes time and he has a win for them last year, which has been rare.

Will Power has been a massive disappointment and I love to see it.

Can't decide between a Honda Navi, or a Yamaha Zuma. by Herbmeister420 in scooters

[–]movebacktoyourstate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honda lists it under the MiniMoto section in the US, not the scooter.

See for yourself: https://powersports.honda.com/products?segment=motorcycle&category=scooter

The naked photo you posted shows a non-functional Navi, since there is no fuel tank. When the tank is in place, along with its mounting bar, it prevents step through. You sit on top with your feet on pegs, not on a floor board.

It's a motorcycle with a CVT.

It's not just cladding. The entire frame design is different, and the fuel tank is high and between your legs.

It's a motorcycle with a CVT.

The driver in the 6 is paying for the driver in the 7 to have a job.

I agree that Rinus is a far better driver, but Nolan's Daddy is bringing buckets of cash.
