Perez went from 20th to fucking 8th on this track, what a guy

[ocean rock]

RB plan actually working, pog

[sage roost]

Knowing checo he’d go to the end of the race with those tires

[vocal tide]

no Claire, but you get a 🅱️ instead

[ocean rock]

1 lap down all the way to 6th, christ

[vocal tide]

s🅱️in

[native bone]

Nice save from Bottas there

[ocean rock]

Seb sbinned

[vocal tide]

inb4 everybody finishes

[lucid hearth]

so many overlapping

confused screeching

[ocean rock]

[dry sage]

So Lewis is going 2 laps with Medium.

[sage roost]

REDBULL STRATEGY WORKED

[dry sage]

And Max came in now.

[native bone]

2.1 pit from Max holy

[dry sage]

[ashen carbon]

Merc is just rolling the pit stop slot machine now

[dry sage]

Max on Hard? Okay.

Hard vs. Medium, let's hope this works.

[native bone]

Reasonable

[vocal tide]

Trusting Ferrari

I wouldn't do that

[sage roost]

Redbull didn’t have any new sets of mediums

[native bone]

Mazepin out

[vocal tide]

[ashen carbon]

[sage roost]

oh no!

anyway

[vocal tide]

NOR pit

[dry sage]

"Called our bluff too soon." - Lewis

[ashen carbon]

"Stroll is on Russell's ass and Russell isn't on Lando's.... let's see Russell's onboard instead of Stroll".

WTF, F1

[ocean rock]

Why is MAZ out?

[vocal tide]

Russell is British, that's why

[lucid hearth]

being too dumbfuck ig

[native bone]

No idea they didnt say anything on my channel

[vocal tide]

Nothing said on Sky either

[ashen carbon]

No one cares enough to find out

Yeah, Sky said nothing

[sage roost]

^^

[dry sage]

I missed Lewis' radio now.

What did he say?

[ocean rock]

[vocal tide]

had so much life in the old ones

[ocean rock]

Aight time to scour thru autosport

[native bone]

More complaining as usual about his tyres

[ocean rock]

Got it

[ashen carbon]

This track is hilariously dirty

[ocean rock]

Its hydraulics

classic ferrari

[native bone]

He's got a point though, that pit wasn't the move

[ocean rock]

Ya know whats also dirty? My mind

Okay that was cringy

sorry

[vocal tide]

You don't bring that to here

get a room with Aipha

[native bone]

Kerbs are not long enough resulting in drivers hitting the grass/dirt

[ocean rock]

@mint plank wdyt?

[dry sage]

Says he won't make it to the end with his current set now.

[ashen carbon]

Yeah, that.

[dry sage]

So far, I like Zandvoort.

[ashen carbon]

Perez pitted again, 2.5s

[native bone]

Yeah he's right they fucked that up, but I'm not mad about it

[dry sage]

Me neither.

[ashen carbon]

Track is fun but the kerbs really need extension

[dry sage]

Ye.

Props to Gasly so far tho.

Solid P4.

[native bone]

Nooo Yuki

[dry sage]

Matt, you saw that?

[twin fiber]

Anything interesting happened? I wasn't watching :<

[vocal tide]

Yuki retires

Mazepin retires

Mazepin almost sent Mick back to Spa

[twin fiber]

Oofgh

[sage roost]

“They’re just so fast man” says the person with the fastest lap

[twin fiber]

Why Sebastian so far behind

Who said that?

[vocal tide]

🅱️

[dry sage]

Remember. When Lewis says, his tires are bad, they're usually good.

[vocal tide]

The 🅱️ striked Favin

[sage roost]

And vice versa

[native bone]

Wonder if Merc team ever get tired of Lewis constant chatter

[ashen carbon]

The more Lewis whines about his tires, the more performance he can squeeze out of them.

So here's him whining about it every lap now

[dry sage]

New idea:

Produce a new engine Supercharger called the "44 Hamilton".

[ashen carbon]

[mint plank]

[ashen carbon]

Lewis: TIRES DEAD WTF MAN

Also Lewis: Deletes 1.5s difference from Max

[native bone]

Fucking Mazepin interview right trough radio chatter

[dry sage]

And he's tone deaf as usual.

[ocean rock]

Everyone whenever mazepin speaks:

[mint plank]

Rule of thumb: If ham isn't bitching about his tires, something is wrong

[dry sage]

Power cut T7?

Did I hear that right?

I only heard power cut something, something.

Ham going faster in the corners.

[ashen carbon]

Meanwhile in the AWS dimension:

[sage roost]

I wonder if that’s actually accurate

[native bone]

10%

[ashen carbon]

I don't think it ever was

[sage roost]

Good

[vocal tide]

Except British GP 2020

Then it was bang on

[native bone]

Oh no more tyre complaining

[sage roost]

Did Russell serve his 5s penalty?

[vocal tide]

Feels we are back to typical F1 season

HAM complaints, no rain

[vocal tide]

Don't think so

[ashen carbon]

Nope

[native bone]

He didn't pit since he got the pen

[dry sage]

4s delta now.

I'm still a bit worried about Max.

[ashen carbon]

How did Stroll get stuck behind Russell all race

[native bone]

Ham's tyres are more done I think he'll be good

[ashen carbon]

Max locked up front right a bit

[dry sage]

Max pls

[native bone]

He lost a second

[sage roost]

Bottas is boxing for fastest lap

[ashen carbon]

Norris & Perez running each other out 2: Electric Boogaloo

[sage roost]

Austria flashbacks

[ashen carbon]

5s pit for Bottas for some reason

Not that it matters

[dry sage]

Lewis 3-stop? wat

[vocal tide]

Bottas getting no stick

[native bone]

Tyre vibrations

[vocal tide]

[dry sage]

Full of shit.

[native bone]

What a load of shit

[sage roost]

“Valtteri it’s James”

[ashen carbon]

Bottas's mystery pit

[native bone]

LOL

Bottas hero

[ashen carbon]

lmao

[vocal tide]

[dry sage]

ABORT THE FASTEST LAP

[ashen carbon]

[dry sage]

JESUS

[native bone]

Fook Hamilton

[dry sage]

THE AUDACITY OF THIS BITCH

[vocal tide]

He did Abort

[ashen carbon]

[native bone]

I wonder if Hamilton is changing his mind about Bottas now

[ashen carbon]

"Oh, I aborted after I'm sure I'd fuck you over" - Bottas probably

[dry sage]

Traffic pls

[native bone]

Imagine

[ashen carbon]

The fans are trying to jinx Max

[sage roost]

https://youtu.be/43HCYSXZ9GI

[mint plank]

[ashen carbon]

[vocal tide]

[mint plank]

ABORT

[native bone]

Max

[ocean rock]

Lights to flag

Fook

[vocal tide]

HAM got point

[mint plank]

Lights to flag, that's the shit we like to see

[sage roost]

Look at that smoke

[native bone]

Crowd is pog

[dry sage]

Love it.

And I guess Bottas is confirmed to be yeeted.

[main cosmos]

we probably missed an epic fight here

[ashen carbon]

Merc: Oh look, we have an extra set of medium hehehehehe
RB: Put hard tires on Max
Merc: Shit.

[mint plank]

[vocal tide]

Watching Crofty glorifying Britishness is sickening

[mint plank]

Mhm

[ocean rock]

Yall acting far too surprised

[mint plank]

You're one to speak.

Hoping for the top three to spin out and gasly win

[ashen carbon]

tbh I think Merc was pretty much just rolling the pit stop slot machine, praying RB fucks up with all the stops and they don't.

[ocean rock]

Shut up

[mint plank]

[ocean rock]

Yeah, the entire grid relied too much on SC today.

Which didnt happen.

[lucid hearth]

i fell asleep on couch

sheesh

[mint plank]

RB pit crew: cocaine is mmmmmmmmm

[ocean rock]

i fell asleep

kappa

[vocal tide]

Not as worse as 2019 Feance

Some booing, but not as bad

[ocean rock]

Yeah, most NL fans tells any boo-ers to shut the fuck up

[native bone]

Would be worse if he got 1st though

[dry sage]

Live footage from the Netherlands:

[mint plank]

Lmao

Dust storm? Nah just orange army

[ashen carbon]

Bottas giving a super awkward interview

[loud spade]

LOL

I didn't expect 3 stops

[ocean rock]

Noone does

[loud spade]

I was like, 99% there will be Red Flag or SC

[native bone]

Bottas: "They forced me to pit so I was like fuck you all"

[loud spade]

But nope

Chad Bottas, but at the wrong time there lmao

[ashen carbon]

The lack of pace from Bottas did lose Merc the race though.

Because he's such a non-factor all RB had to do is "they pitted Lewis, let's pit Max"

[main cosmos]

he did say that he was going after 1 pit

[vocal tide]

They even get ppl sing it

[loud spade]

Nah, Bottas did what they told him to do, keep the tires alive

[native bone]

Not this cringe national anthem singing

[main cosmos]

and taking care of the tires

[loud spade]

but anyways, we're all waiting for the Russel announcement

[native bone]

He almost screwed Hamilton over at the end, he ignored them by still going for fastest lap and not holding back

[ocean rock]

So what you want?

[ashen carbon]

Did they just find the singer and pretty much have her look, go out and sing if Max won

[dry sage]

I mean, she bad.

[native bone]

There are non singed versions you know

[dry sage]

And I mean, she bad.

[native bone]

Which sound way better

[loud spade]

I don't mind that

Because Dutch people in nutshell, if they have something to cheer for, they will go overboard for it.

Orange Army in nutshell

[heady swift]

but that's any fanbase ever, looking at british football

plus no one in my immediate circle really gave a fuck

[vocal tide]

I feel it's a combination that they wear bright orange (and therefore stand out a lot), and showing up in big numbers to Austria and Belgium before Zandvoort was a thing. Also it's probably the fanbase that's most united, and cause the most shit in the circuit (just see last and this week and flares antics).

[ocean rock]

I think they did caused some fair amount of dune fire.

Nah, I'll teach you cringe:

[ocean rock]

Pretty standard farewell, i dont get what you expect

[ashen carbon]

Still cringe

[ocean rock]

Or you expect straight up bottas slander?

[ashen carbon]

Nah, I don't

I feel like a dick for actually saying it, but does anyone actually care where Bottas is going beyond "out of Mercedes"?

[ocean rock]

No team cares about the driver's next venture really, if im being honest.

[ashen carbon]

Nah, I'm not talking about whether Merc cares

[swift galleon]

CAN WE GET A GEORGE RUSSELL FOR MERCEDESS??

[ashen carbon]

inb4 in typical Russell luck, Merc builds a bad car for the new regs and becomes uncompetitive for the next few years

Whether the new reg Merc is good is a competition between Lewis's #blessed and Russell's curse

[pliant mantle]

YO VALTERRI FOR ROMEO ??

[pliant mantle]

imagine

imagine merc underperforms w new regs\

n williams actually becomes a top team next year

[ocean rock]

@ashen carbon

I love how me and like a lot of user flame him to death and this happens lmfao

[uncut saddle]

Looks like Alfa wants to give Bottas a lot of responsibility

I hope he finds his way there

[pliant mantle]

russel average ??

lol

[uncut saddle]

[pliant mantle]

dont know how anybody cant see the pure talent in him

[ocean rock]

I mean the guy boldly:

1. Claims PlanetF1 is a valid source
2. Tsunoda is not underperforming
3. Every interview is always true

[uncut saddle]

Tsunoda is jst rookie!!!1!111!!!

[ocean rock]

and then the guy pulled multiple ad hominem to us lmfao

[uncut saddle]

I'm just patiently waiting for Mazepin to fuck off

[pliant mantle]

doubt thats gonna happen for a long time

he has haas by the throat

[uncut saddle]

Let me dream

[ocean rock]

https://tenor.com/view/dream-smp-gif-20015891

This is the only dream you can have

[uncut saddle]

Damn

[ashen carbon]

It's easy to forget Tsunoda is still a rookie because he's the only rookie this year with a comeptitive car.

[uncut saddle]

I fear for Yuki

[ocean rock]

Still, beaten 66-19 is not an impressive feat for number cruncher.

Tsunoda needs consistency

[pliant mantle]

yeah but hes still young, im confident he'll learn

[uncut saddle]

Is current Honda a good learning environment tho

[pliant mantle]

we'll see

[ashen carbon]

Mick is talented but is known to suck on the first year when moving up a class... plus he's in a Haas.

Mazepin is Mazepin, and also in a Haas.

Yuki is the only one anyone have any real expectation out of in terms of race results.

[ocean rock]

[uncut saddle]

BREAKING: Russell to replace Verstappen in 2022, as Verstappen signs multi-year contract with Mercedes

[pliant mantle]

all the interviews too with drivers and team principals pretty much confirming it

PlanetF1 shouldve used this title when horner bumped shoulder with George in that interview at zandvoort.

[pliant mantle]

i really cant wait for the next season to start tho

a brand new era for f1, with a lot of shakeups

really hoping albon gets a second shot though

[sage roost]

You got that all wrong

Mazepin is the best driver on the grid

[uncut saddle]

They had to put him in the worst car to even the odds

[autumn timber]

Probably cuz it’s the Mercedes that inspired the terrobyte

Yep, otherwise he’d be winning every round

[hybrid charm]

Im disappointed in mercedes

😑

WTF is this

[hybrid charm]

looks sick tbh

[kind osprey]

it's a Geländewagen, I don't see what's wrong with it it literally has no differences other than the power-train and minor design changes for efficiency.

Out of any electrified vehicle, this one was done top notch, it wasn't changed, it wasn't ruined, it was just slightly refined

The Geländewagen must always be a filing cabinet

[grand walrus]

The days of engines is coming to an end

Makes me sad

Now repairing and maintaining old cars is going to be even more expensive than before

[ember estuary]

LS a Tesla duh

[hybrid charm]

i dont like the design

[kind osprey]

All they changed was the grille and the wheels, which are definitely an option.

so unless you don't like the g wagon entirely which is a whole different issue

[hybrid charm]

[autumn timber]

Oo changeable wheels

Something rich ppl that afford these cars can do

If you don’t like how it looks buy one n change it

[proper elbow]

They should make all vehicles with changeable wheels IMO

[autumn timber]

They don’t already?

[proper elbow]

You said it, not me

[hybrid charm]

bruh

[autumn timber]

No I was being sarcastic about there argument

[hybrid charm]

how can a car not have changeable wheels?

[heady swift]

I mean most cars offer wheel options to begin with

especially rich people cars

[autumn timber]

Twas my point

[hybrid charm]

when the car doesnt come with wheels stock

[autumn timber]

But this guy

[proper elbow]

Dealer options. Only comes with hubs stock.

[hybrid charm]

yeah why make nice looking cars if you can just install a bodykit

[heady swift]

if you can afford a 200k box that you won't ever use off-road you can afford wheel options or even a second set. Most manufacturers already offer two different sets of rims for summer and winter tyres

[hybrid charm]

yeah true

but having a good looking car by stock is important imo

-sincerely someone that will never touch a g-wagon in his lfie

[proper elbow]

Would love to see Ronal Teddy Bears offered on G Wagons

[hybrid charm]

dubs on the top g-wagon trim

[heady swift]

I mean if you want off-road

if it works in dakar it probably works everywhere else

very stock

[proper elbow]

Is that an old pajero

[heady swift]

pajero evo

they made an evo because of dakar

[proper elbow]

One of the homologation ones

[heady swift]

yup

[proper elbow]

Probably ungodly expensive nowadays

[heady swift]

it looks horrid, but carries history and racing stuffs

[proper elbow]

I'd love a Montero/Pajero but clean ones are tough to find here

[heady swift]

oh yeah, 2500 models

wait a minute

[proper elbow]

[heady swift]

yeah visited the same site

[proper elbow]

No idea if that's USD or not, but that's a lot less than I thought

[heady swift]

probably driven to shambles

I mean they're cheaper than most eh evo 5's and 6's

aside from tme

because that's 60-120k

[grand walrus]

[charred mirage]

Do either of you own one?

[grand walrus]

Is it yours Mr. Thighs?

[charred mirage]

[proper elbow]

I had a 2006 for a while

[charred mirage]

Ever hydroplane in it?

[proper elbow]

[charred mirage]

Where those roads shitty?

I crashed on a freeway tho

[proper elbow]

Not particularly

[charred mirage]

So idk shits different for everyone

[proper elbow]

Did you slam on the brakes

[charred mirage]

Fuck no

[grand walrus]

End up sideways

[charred mirage]

I gave it a tiny bit of gas and the front went “lemme go touch that wall

At least it doesn't look too bad.

Can't really tell from the vid though

[grand walrus]

Looks about right

[proper elbow]

Provided the radiator didn't introduce itself to the accessories on the front of the block, should be fixable

Oh your suspension is fucked too

Shame

[charred mirage]

Thats what im thinking but tbh id rather just get a new one

[proper elbow]

Probably gonna be totalled out

[charred mirage]

7 years w this car smh

[grand walrus]

Aren't they cheap?

Ish...

[charred mirage]

Hydroplaned once and it went bye bye

They can be

A good one costs like 10-15

[jagged sentinel]

Or the bumper

[proper elbow]

Anywhere from 4-8k

[charred mirage]

Depends on what you get

[proper elbow]

The 2007+ are more because of the HR engine

[charred mirage]

I lowkey liked the DE engine more

Slightly

[grand walrus]

Doesn't matter the engine to me

Can always swap it

[ocean rock]

VQ

[jagged sentinel]

That isn't cheap or easy

[grand walrus]

I understand that

[proper elbow]

People always shit on how the VQ sounds but I actually really like the raspy note

[charred mirage]

The vq is definitely a good sounding engine idk who tf says it sounds bad

[ocean rock]

Because apparently raspy note = rice

OH BOY IF THEY DISCOVER ALFA ROMEO

People call anything rice these days

“Oh you got a wing, thats rice bro”

[ocean rock]

OH BOY IF THEY DISCOVER MERC V8TT

[jagged sentinel]

Or any Subaru boxer

[ocean rock]

Dawg if my EJ suddenly sounds high pitched like a ferrari im bringing it to a shop not on insta

[charred mirage]

Lmfaoo

im getting another 350 tho

Theyre great to drive

[proper elbow]

They really are nice cars

I've thought about picking one up as a project, but kind of stuck on the idea of a Q60

[charred mirage]

Thats not bad too tho

[ocean rock]

350 and 370 is just so good to drive bone stock

They are sportscar through and through

[proper elbow]

Shame the 370 looks how it does

[grand walrus]

Don't tell me people have lost the definition of ricer too

[proper elbow]

I hate the direction Nissan went after the 350

[charred mirage]

They have

[ocean rock]

400Z

[charred mirage]

They kinda redeemed themselves with the 400z

[grand walrus]

I can't believe it...

[charred mirage]

But the GTR i feel will die soon

[proper elbow]

400 looks alright

[ocean rock]

Im actually heavily hyped for Nissan Next plan

[grand walrus]

Electric 😐

[charred mirage]

I want silvias to come back tho

[ocean rock]

I hope its finally a sincere attempt to hop up the quality

Rather than another half ass.

[heady swift]

I mean, it's necessary

[ocean rock]

And?

[grand walrus]

Introducing the ElectriciZ

[ocean rock]

If it goes weeeeeee i love it

[charred mirage]

Gas powered cars wont go away for a minute

[ocean rock]

And dont shit talk EV sportscar, Musk shows that it works

[grand walrus]

Yeah but it will make maintaining them more expensive

[charred mirage]

Thats the unfortunate truth

[heady swift]

not necessarily

[proper elbow]

idk why they called it the 400z, should have re-used the 300z name plate.

stick to displacement rather than hp

[charred mirage]

Theres just way too many on the road now and coming out to get rid of them in the near future

[grand walrus]

As long as they look good, I'm fine with them being electric

[ocean rock]

800Z, now ships with supercharged HEMI V8!

[proper elbow]

[charred mirage]

Ngl im kinda interested in the hybrid GTR coming

[heady swift]

I mean a lot of developed countries are banning gas cars onwards of 2025/30, some cities here are trying to ban cars all-together

cars in general aren't very popular in urban areas, where I live

[charred mirage]

Damn

[grand walrus]

Sucks

[charred mirage]

Makes sense tho

[proper elbow]

Banning cars outright wouldn't really work in the majority of the US

[jagged sentinel]

Where is this if you don't mind me asking

[heady swift]

the Netherlands

[jagged sentinel]

People would not be having it

[grand walrus]

But I like my loud obnoxious car

[charred mirage]

I like my nissans

[proper elbow]

Most places have terrible public transport infrastructure

It's just not feasible

[charred mirage]

One of them cant be driven in the US till 2026 tho lmfaooo

[jagged sentinel]

And Americans are just fucking stubborn

[charred mirage]

This

[grand walrus]

Mannnn....

[heady swift]

I like cars too, but EV and focusing on public transport, pedestrians and bicyclists is simply the way to go

[ocean rock]

https://c.tenor.com/0tmE0zVNvfMAAAAM/supermax-verstappen.gif

[proper elbow]

same tbh

[charred mirage]

Ill be damned if i gotta give up my S15 and the Z im replacing

[heady swift]

unfortunately

[charred mirage]

S14!!

Cultured

[ocean rock]

Why unfortunate? We dont have F1 WDC here

[jagged sentinel]

I just want a catfish Camaro Z28

[noble grove]

I have a question. What's the most likely cause if I hear constant grinding when shifting an automatic to drive or reverse? There's also noticeably less torque.

[grand walrus]

Low on fluid?

[jagged sentinel]

Or a pre-facelift 4-door charger

[heady swift]

I prefer supergt and wrc

[jagged sentinel]

Worn clutch, low fluid

[proper elbow]

gears, fluid, torque converter

[ocean rock]

More like bad fluid, transmission is not prone to evaporation

[noble grove]

Fluids look fine, both oil and transmission fluid.

[proper elbow]

if theres a loss of power at all times probably TC

[charred mirage]

Get your trans looked at, prolly low fluid and or worn clutch

[ocean rock]

But yeah, check your stator and fluid.

[jagged sentinel]

Then worn clutch or torque converter

[ocean rock]

Or possibly differential squeaking but it wouldve been happening not only in reverse but also in turning.

[noble grove]

How much generally for repairs? 2003 toyota corolla.

[proper elbow]

could probably just get a newused transmission and have someone throw it in for like $500-600

[ocean rock]

Depends on if you wanna DIY, mechanic, or Toyota.

[proper elbow]

corolla parts are basically free

[noble grove]

Mechanic

[jagged sentinel]

Probably around $600-1000 depending on where you go

[noble grove]

Damn, can't afford that rn

[ocean rock]

Yeah dadada's rate pretty much is about right, but a torque converter or clutch pack is gonna be more cheaper than a rebuilt trans

Trans as in transmission.

[jagged sentinel]

That was implied

[ocean rock]

Not

[jagged sentinel]

I'm glad the auto-mechanic community hasn't been tainted by those people yet

[noble grove]

Well, I'll have my mechanic diagnose and see what the issue is.

[jagged sentinel]

Otherwise like half the fucking words we use would be offensive to them lol

[ocean rock]

Well then what am i?

Im MtF

[grand walrus]

Cool

[ocean rock]

I think there's already a lot of us in car community, but why would that matter?

[jagged sentinel]

I'm referring to the people who are just toxins about all of those "sensitive" words

[ocean rock]

Context is everything.

[jagged sentinel]

Ain't that the truth

[grand walrus]

Preach

[ocean rock]

Anyway, before we accidentally bring this to #archive-serious-discussions territory

[jagged sentinel]

It was just an afterthought on my part

[ocean rock]

For this chat context: who cares about your gender, if you can turn a wrench youre cool.

[grand walrus]

Preach

[noble grove]

So a replacement torque converter or clutch pack, how much to replace one of those if that's the issue?

[grand walrus]

400

[ocean rock]

400-600 excluding labor

But if you wanna go for poop cheap alibaba/ebay, it could be at the ballpark of 2-300.

[grand walrus]

Gonna ls swap my mustang

[ocean rock]

But a crank replacement+labor would be 3k if you scratch it

But depending on the engine too.

[ocean rock]

Unironically better than a windsor/coyote swap

[jagged sentinel]

My advice: don't go cheap with auto parts

Don't go stupid expensive

[grand walrus]

They were tempting me with the coyote

[jagged sentinel]

But don't cheap out on everything

It's ashame the Voodoo wasn't a crate engine

[hybrid charm]

Yo where is the playstation gta5 chat channel?

[jagged sentinel]

Not here

[ocean rock]

#gta-online is shared for every platform.

[grand walrus]

Wrong place man

[proper elbow]

LS Mustangs

LS anything

[ocean rock]

Ford fault making expensive ass transmission

[jagged sentinel]

Fuck it LS swapped C6 Corvette

You do the math

[charred mirage]

[ocean rock]

LT aftermarket is not that bad

[proper elbow]

Be like Rob Dahm and build a four rotor 'vette

[jagged sentinel]

Hint: every iteration of the C6 Corvette came with an LS of some sort

[ocean rock]

[proper elbow]

tbh I'm just tired of drifting

[ocean rock]

Kinda same lul

[proper elbow]

It was cool back in the early 2000s

But now it's just like

[jagged sentinel]

And then Formula D came around and basically oversaturated the drifting scene before it really even started

[grand walrus]

Drifting is like skating, you just fall out of it after a while

[charred mirage]

I was never into drifting, i always tuned my cars to do well on the track rather than get mf sideways

[forest wyvern]

hi

[proper elbow]

I did a few track days, then tried autocross

[forest wyvern]

anyone wanna play carx?

[proper elbow]

autox so much more fun

[forest wyvern]

cap

[charred mirage]

Some people in the drifting scene are just pretty dumb and annoying

[forest wyvern]

carx is much more fun with online and no rammers

[proper elbow]

#other-games

[jagged sentinel]

Go to #other-games @forest wyvern

[forest wyvern]

man i keep fucking dying

[charred mirage]

Miss the track days in this mf

[jagged sentinel]

At least you're in a position to be able to own one

[charred mirage]

I cant bring it to the US till 2026

[jagged sentinel]

By then everything will be fucking EV

Thanks biden

[proper elbow]

Tesla swaps will be the new thing

[ocean rock]

Whats the "thicc thighs" of cars? Like, a car that everyone loves but if an outsider looks at it theyll call you a weirdo

[proper elbow]

starion

[charred mirage]

Ae86

[ocean rock]

I nominate S13 on that foray

[jagged sentinel]

Mitsubishi Lancer Evo

[ocean rock]

Imo the ugliest of 3 last silvias

[proper elbow]

the hatch or the coupe though

or god forbid the ||convertible||

[charred mirage]

Dissing the s13 is a big no no

[ocean rock]

Idk, my mum think lancers are cool

[grand walrus]

Mk4

[charred mirage]

People be high asf calling the r33 gtr ugly

[grand walrus]

Looks just basic to me

I can appreciate the power

[ocean rock]

https://youtu.be/5SMeVy43Y5Q

[proper elbow]

idk how anyone can dislike a car that has 1k whp stock

[jagged sentinel]

I know right

[proper elbow]

https://tenor.com/view/gun-db-shotgun-gif-21597283

what a terrible day to have eyes

[ocean rock]

R33 walked so R34 can run like hell

[jagged sentinel]

... You might have a problem

[ocean rock]

Looks like someone bought harbor freight jack stands

If those are blood

[jagged sentinel]

Is that a foxbody mustang

[ocean rock]

Foxbody yeah

[grand walrus]

Damn 4 banger came back with a vengeance

I wish my interior wasn't smoke brown with smoke yellow interior 😒 but at least it's all there

Minus radio, but who uses radios anymore? Bluetooth is the new hotness

Gonna miss the top 50 charts

[night steeple]

what's the cheapest car you can buy new in the US right now?
a mitsubishi mirage?

just for research purposes

[grand walrus]

Factory fresh or barnyard roller?

[night steeple]

probably anything that is new and you can buy right now

a regular car / hatchback or whatever for regular people

[proper elbow]

Probably a Chevy spark or a Mitsubishi mirage

[grand walrus]

Looking for a specific year? What are you planning to do with it?

[night steeple]

not really, im not even in the US, just wanna compare and see the prices of cheap new cars between countries

and what features they bring

[grand walrus]

Interesting

Europe is going to have cheaper prices

[heady swift]

uhm

[grand walrus]

People over here overpay for things

[heady swift]

cars are significantly cheaper in the US

because of lower taxes, less regulation and car-dependency

though there are quite a lot of differences within the EU

[night steeple]

over here you can get a rebadged daihatsu for ~7k USD new

with steelies and shit

[proper elbow]

That's much cheaper than anything you can get in the US.

I think even the cheapest of the cheap 2021 models start at around $14k

[night steeple]

I think that price hasnt added taxes and insurance, but its probably 8k once you add it all up

[heady swift]

according to autoweek the cheapest new car is 14.5K dollars

which is 12.2K eur

cheapest car here is 12.8K

but statistically the prices rise significantly for the mid-segment, as opposed to the US

[grand walrus]

I'm off to slumber

Great talks y'all

[steady cove]

The doggo.

[heady swift]

why does every video of a neo-stance car meet look the same

[proper elbow]

Because they are

[night steeple]

I, am going to custom print the koenigsegg ghost logo as a sticker and stick it on my 1998 ford

[autumn timber]

Poser

[night steeple]

heeheehee, I have a bunch of stickers already, includes mad max skeketon arm, subnautica stickers, overwatch and more

[autumn timber]

Dope

[hybrid charm]

Taycan is wayy better

[hybrid charm]

I do like the design, the g wagon is one of the best mercedes out there

But the design of the electric one is garbage

[hybrid charm]

And yeah...that grill alone has ruined the front design

[kind osprey]

electrified, meaning making an original gas car into an electric car

taycan is its own thing

[kind osprey]

it's basically the same other than some super minor swapable changes to improve range, this statement confuses me.

[hybrid charm]

Well Uh, each person has their own opinion and I respect that

But in my opinion mercedes is really ruining their new car designs

This maybach for example

Its garbage in my own opinion

However other people might like it

[ocean rock]

Car people: complains about boring blob design of the 2010s
Car manufacturer: makes them more sleek and futuristic
Car people: complains about futuristic blob design

[ocean rock]

They have the coefficient of drag of half a brick

[uncut saddle]

which f1 seats are still open for 2022?

[loud spade]

[ocean rock]

1 at aston martin, and 1 more at Haas. But really its all about if Mick and Stroll gonna get his contract extended.

[loud spade]

Question: Can an F2 champ go another season after he wins the championship?

[uncut saddle]

no Stroll confirmation huh?

I do expect to see Stroll next year

[loud spade]

His dad won't throw him out like that

[uncut saddle]

Wasn't there another seat in Alfa as well?

Giovinazzi hasn't been confirmed yet

[loud spade]

Alfa taking Bottas

[uncut saddle]

well I know about bottas

that still leaves the other seat empty

[loud spade]

Oh yeah also the other seat

I think Zhou (F2 driver) is offering Alfa 30mil, coming from a sponsor to get the seat

He's second in the F2 standings

[uncut saddle]

I just want f1 to throw us a curveball

Hulkenberg for Alfa in 2022

[loud spade]

Man, Hulk is just a wasted driver

Karma for wasting podium chances?

[icy mountain]

What car would ya’ll get if you can afford it?

[uncut saddle]

Datsun 240Z

in a heartbeat

[icy mountain]

For me it’s either a lexus sports car or a bugatti chiron

[uncut saddle]

solid options

if I had money money I'd buy a Zonda Cinque

Maybe one of senior high student riding it

[pliant mantle]

yeah, just trynna be sarcastic

they also did it with driver and team suits iirc

[ocean rock]

No UK plate on the rear wing rear

[pliant mantle]

these special liveries reminding me of that one time jaguar stuck a big ass diamond in the front nose of their car and lost it

[sage roost]

These special liveries remind me of the time Mercedes used a white livery for hockenheim and didn’t even get points

[pliant mantle]

LMFAOO

one of the worst races for mercedes in the hybrid era

[sage roost]

‘We’re so proud of the new livery we’ll be running for the German Grand Prix!’

Monaco and Baku this year are definitely up there with the worst for merc

Hey!

These might be bots

[rare peak]

hey is it worth buying the laser if i have a hydra

[storm tree]

No

What hangar do you have?

[rare peak]

umm the pegasus one in lsia

[storm tree]

Well it’s really up to you, it’s a great plane, but very expensive

[rare peak]

well i mean i have 5 mill so im quite close to it but i thought id ask someone

[storm tree]

It shouldn’t be a problem if you can make the money back fast

[rare peak]

im not into pvp but i bought the hydra to protect myself and get around quickly but im still getting destroyed and only because of the easy turning of the laser

[rare peak]

yh i do a lot of cayos and casinos w my friends so it shouldnt take long

[storm tree]

Okay

If you want it, buy it!

It’s my favorite plane

[rare peak]

ok thanks for the advice

[storm tree]

Np

[rare peak]

hey i just wanted to ask is the molotok faster when fully upgraded or the laser?

[storm tree]

Yes

The Molotok

[rare peak]

ok

and does adding missiles slow it or anything?

[storm tree]

I’m pretty sure it doesn’t

Never thought of that

[rare peak]

ok thanks

[rare peak]

lmao i was just thinking its a pretty realistic game so i just wanted to know

[rare peak]

lol

[storm tree]

Reacting to my msg

[rare peak]

hey in a dogfigth, do you reckon the hydra would win or a molotok ?

[storm tree]

Hydra

Explosive cannons

But it really depends on the pilot

[rare peak]

so would the hydra win or lose against the laser if the pilots were of similar skill

[storm tree]

Lazer

[rare peak]

ok

ill be back
