I don't know... part of me says that it's neat that some of these cars are selling for big $. The other part of me says that if market prices get driven up many of the long-time enthusiasts get driven out of the market or feel like they can't drive the cars they already have because they're suddenly...

Probably no spacers for the wheels.
The Shelby wheels are 15" x 5.5" 40mm offset

I bet I could drum up some proper headlights for the new owner for 10% of the purchase price.

Sounds like you're driving it like someone with experience in FWD

Looks like a lot of fun!

So according to what you posted above from Peter Bakstrom, that car in Clarion livery is this car (presumably after some parts changes and paint) : http://home.ptd.net/~carlsont/temp/DSCN6334.jpg https://www.rally24.com/rally-cars-for-sale/99-turbo-32330.html I got the chance to see it at one of our...

Watching the Historic video after the WRC video isn't the best idea. It's amazing how slow a Quattro looks by comparison! I'm sure most of the historic drivers are taking less chances though. Looks like a great time, warm weather and some snow for a change! We had two weeks of this earlier in the wi...

Nice! There are a lot of similarities between Sweden and New England (and upstate New York in this case)

Just had a "duuurrr" moment. Pause 30 = 0.3 minutes = 18 seconds (not 30 seconds)
Just one more way to make a mistake!

A pause is sort of what it sounds like. You may come to a "Pause 30" and find out there's a traffic light. The 30 second pause adds time to wait for the light to change. If you get there and the light is green then you pull through the intersection and pull over and wait 30 seconds. Then g...

Lots of great memories from that event! We liked the overnight format and haven't tried it since it went to the new schedule. There are places to get beer in Barre at 2AM? If this is your first event, you will get lost (most experienced people will also get lost). Enjoy it and don't stress. Bring a ...

"#9" primaries? cool! Have you had it up to 4400rpm in 5th gear yet?
Can I ask how much it cost to build the custom set?

Great, just when I start to kick the BaT habit Chip goes and list that for sale. And also this:

195/60 and 185/65 are pretty similar diameter. But for a snow tire it isn't really a question of the wall height but more of a question of tire width. A skinnier tire will dig down deeper into the snow and potentially give more traction. Although on pure ice I've seen people successfully ice race wi...
