Top Gear voted it the worst car on sale in 2003. So it wasn't universally liked, and as I stated, the competition in that period was a lot more and the SC was the ugly duckling of the bunch. The LC has few competition and the one's that are available are either a lot more money (like the...

I don't think I agree with your take on the LC500, the SC430 while being in the same vein of car (luxury GT), they are quite different. The SC430 was not viewed as a good looking vehicle even when it first came out, the LC500 has been viewed as beautiful since day one. The SC430 had endless...

I don’t think it’s 100% on Perez. Easily avoidable by both, and I would probably call it a 60% Carlos and 40% Checo fault. Carlos drifted across the track while Checo stayed mostly straight. So while Checo could have easily avoided it, Carlos was the one who drifted over. The constructors...

One of the best races of the season so far. So much to watch and so much defending and passing. I think the world is going to fall in love with Oscar, just so consistent, calm, and fair racing. How can you not love the guy!

I think there is likely a lot that goes into how a vehicle can turn into a desirable "classic", that's what we are talking about because technically any old vehicle can be a classic if it's old enough. Things that I think will be in the favor of the Supra, smaller number sold, likely the last...

Considering you aren't planning on adding a whole heap of power, and didn't mention anything about trying to be the fastest at a track or strip, I think if your general preference for a sports car is manual you go that route. Your worry about reliability is likely overblown because of the...

There is no denying that Max is a very talented driver, but I think the development of his car hasn't been great enough to offset how far other teams have advanced. Max can't beat everyone with an uncompetitive car, that's not how the sport works. The driver is definitely key, but so is the...

Agreed, but I'm not sure it's time to do that yet. Lando is still on pace to beat Max, so when it gets closer to the end of the season I'd say there will be a greater chance of team orders to possibly come into effect. The Lewis and Nico battle was fun for TV but likely not so much for the...

Two things, you don't have to be an ass to win, and his situation at McLaren is a complex one. One of the main reasons why he's so liked is that he isn't some asshole on the road, or goes off on anyone and everyone when things aren't going his way. It's why Max is such a polarizing driver...

Ferrari finally got a strategy call right, not taking away from Charles as he certainly has driven amazingly the past two races. Happy for him winning the two biggest races for him personally and the team. We can agree that McLaren has the best driver lineup. I think Zack Brown stated he has...

From what I understand, if it's not an option (even dealer installed option) on the manufacturers website, it can not be included in the Lightning Lap. So yes there are some vehicles where you can option higher performance tires on your vehicle and thus they would be able to run them at this...

Have a younger friend who is a bigger Lando Norris fan than me, I'm actually McLaren fan first and then drivers. Anyway, for some reason he is certain that Lando will win the drivers championship. I tried to explain just how big of a gap 70 points is between drivers, how there is only 9 races...

Beating another vehicle has so very many factors, driver skill, road conditions, tires, etc, etc. Am I the only one who doesn't mind if someone else wants to do a little drag race on a public road and lose. It's fun regardless of who wins or loses, just do so in a safe manner (meaning on an...

I like the banked corners...but it's too narrow of a track I feel for a lot of passing to happen. Definitely not the worst track (cough Monaco cough) but it's not really the track that I feel is the best on the calendar. It's also a major pain when there is any crashes or dead cars as there...

It's hard to say what is happening with RB, hard to believe that McLaren's development has surpassed them so quickly this season. There are all these rumors or conspiracy theories that RB had something that was against the rules on their car earlier this season and rather than some big public...

Honestly, I feel like it's bad only when you compare it to the previous generations, but that's with basically all the current M cars. Compared to the Merc AMG, Audi RS, Caddy Blackwings, it's not noticeably worse I feel.

It would somewhat make sense to do that as a compromise of the two cars. Personally I'd probably just keep the Supra and replace the Macan with a Acura Integra Type S. But that's just me.

Is it wrong for me to think that the Supra (at least in stock form) is more of an "all rounder" than a pure fun/track car? That's not to say it's not good as that, just that between the ride, how good it is soaking up highway miles, and somewhat ease of use, it offers more than what past pure...

If the other top drivers did the same wrong turn into the pits, then I don’t think the lack of parade lap and marbles would have caused only George to be DQ’d. I think there must have been some miscalculation from the team that caused this issue. Which sucks for GR but not his fault.

Tire whisperer indeed. It did bring Oscar back at the end, which wasn’t ideal for them but did a good job holding off Lewis. Speaking of holding off people, Charles did a masterful job keeping both Max and Lando at bay for most of that final stint.
