If the 2030 Corvette looks like this and takes out that hideous wall between the driver and passenger... I could see me getting one. Unless Toyota gets a good looking, fun to drive, mid-engine MR2 or Celica out first!
First, let me state that I don't agree with all of the following.
Former Sky Sports F1 presenter Rachel Brookes has predicted these driver changes for 2027:
Max Verstappen to join Kimi Antonelli at Mercedes
Oscar Piastri to join Isack Hadjar at Red Bull
George Russell to join Lando Norris at...
I raced SCCA for over 20 years and I'll agree that first lap 'stuff' happens all the time. I was very lucky that 9 times out of 10, I would get a good start and make up a spot or three on the starts (except for those occasional times when I was on the pole)!
This is me at the SCCA RunOffs...
If you are into drama and rumor (I'm not, but many are) then you have:
Is McLaren trying to make Oscar leave?
I don't think so. Oscar is a great 2nd seat driver.
Will they try to get Max to replace him?
I wouldn't take Max as a replacement. He is getting way too cranky about cars...
It was a fairly entertaining race, especially since it was Hungry which is usually just a parade with almost no passing. The new rules make passing easier in places where nobody ever passed during the years of DRS zones!
McLaren seems to be back on their game, good to see. Even Red Bull looked...
IMHO, a pretty good race. Up front Kimi had to catch and pass Charles late and then hold him off. Further back there were a couple of good racing challenges as the race ended.
I think it's interesting that Max fell back a spot and Hadjar finished only about a dozen seconds behind him after...
I like the GR GT ok, but it's not the car of my dreams. I want a smaller car (new MR2), a mid-engine car (new MR2), a slightly less sophisticated car (new MR2), a four wheel drive car (new MR2) and maybe a bit less expensive (new MR2). Hey, a guy can dream can't he?
Right now I'm considering a...
And if I was in the market for an under $100K new sports car today, Toyota doesn't have anything I'd buy! I'd have to look at Nissan, Mazda, Lotus or maybe even... Chevrolet!
I really didn't care much for Max when he was walking away with everything. To me, he seemed pretty arrogant. Everybody treated him like there is no better driver, but the truth is, he had a VERY dominate car. And now he has a car that is less than the best and a teammate that is challenging...
Welcome to the club. I've been an F1 fan since long before it was on TV (except maybe for Monaco). I raced several different sports cars and bought my Supra at the end of 2024 (a new 2025 model). I've done track days at Barber, Sebring, Daytona and Road Atlanta. It has 8K on the odometer and...
Welcome back! A friend of mine who used to be here, sold his Supra and got a Vette. But his Supra was an auto, so he doesn't mind the Vette being an auto.
I'm with you, a die hard manual transmission driver.
Well, I'm not looking for a 911 competitor... exactly. I want a small car. To me, even my Supra is bigger than I would like it to be. Corvettes are really nice, but I want something other than what everybody else drives. Corvettes are everywhere and that's because they are fairly good looking...
