I love tuning this little drift car. This has been a great distraction hobby.

Dangerous Nights Crew, today is the day we LIVE for

These two Mitsubishis, great two car garage.

I give you…, The Shinkansen Van

All ready for Japanese car day

Got the monster out, sadly for the first time since last september

Went outside yesterday to touch wrenches.

“She’s trading in her MG for a white Chrysler 200”

Very lucky to have gotten to visit an amazing Motorsport festival in Portugal while on a family trip.

Very cool

Sunday morning R/C club, we did a little boating, and some monster trucking. Better than screen time. My 5 yo is getting pretty decent at driving.

Basically just accepted that until further notice. I’m personally pausing any hobby related purchases, because I refuse to pay 10-15-30-50% over value. www.404media.co/trump-tariff... Trump Tariffs Cause Chaos on Ebay as Every Hobby Becomes Logistical Minefield

All this feels stupid, but distracting myself putting this car back together. Also trying to figure how I can get the throttle linkages sent to me, since you know global shipping is paused.

Header is in, let’s get this thing going. I hope to have the carbs mounted and plumbed this week.

Watching a Penske driver win so a Hendrick driver can get into the playoffs… lame. But that was a good clean finish.

My Galant and some other good cars today

Some sub par cell phone shots of the cup race. Sometimes I just mostly live in the moment.

I’ve paid people to do worse welding. I’ll take it.

Got the intakes fitted on the B20.

2016 Outback rear wheel bearing are as bad to do as the internet tells you. Ended up just buying a whole new very expensive knuckle. This car has 40k New England miles. Also needing a wheel bearing at 40k is insane.

Bubba Wallace’s win was incredible, but my hot take now is that his car scheme was terrible. Ugh ChumbaCasino, just a super cringe online game site. If only the car was the teal Columbia or McDs or Jumpman, my goodness. Iconic

Designed some phenolic spacers and had them made by Send Cut Send for the DCOE setup.

My toxic trait is fixing other people’s hack wiring jobs. Once I have the car running I’ll dig into what’s hiding under the dash.

I think this car has just the right amount of rattyness

And after some more struggling, it finally seated.

Made some progress? But now I have to take this all back to the flywheel, it appears the pilot bearing is somehow wrong. I cannot get the transmission to seat.

Also had a productive Saturday getting the Volvo B20 back in the car.

hell yeah @williamfleitch.bsky.social

Went to a fancy car show today

I’m so annoyed all the time now. In ‘22 I got a job at a green energy startup. My wife works in cancer research. SO MUCH promise for the future, instead like everyone else I no longer have job security, we’re all staring down the destruction of the U.S and its fascist replacement. Like WHAT THE FUCK

Read this — “I’m a car guy. But I’m also an advocate for public transportation, bike lanes and safer streets. Most readers might do a double take at that statement…” “Car enthusiasm is not and must not be confused for car dependency.“ Via @usa.streetsblog.org

These people are so unserious and cringe. Because they think I can’t hate on it, because I’ll hate America. My dude, you just have garbage taste. Cope harder

This is a take I can get behind as someone who likes to take photos.

Washing some of the cars last week.

I hope he finds another ride. I enjoy watching him.

SVG heard the camera operator was talking shit about the metric system

Finished up my DT-04

Took the VR4 for a drive this morning

Slowly working this build.

Can’t stop watching Portnoy getting CLOCKED by a slice of pizza. It’s incredible.

Video podcasts are stupid, the fact that you can listen while doing something else is what makes podcasts appealing.

Mitsubishi is the king of unforced errors

I thought this was an S10 blazer at quick glance

Yeah, I'm just a dude that loves pushrods and supports equal rights for everyone. Bring me all of your hate.

Ok, so the Japanese NASCAR races in the 90s were exhibition races, so on Technicality the Mexico race is the first international paints cup race.

I do miss the NBC coverage with hourly recaps. I can’t watch the whole of LeMans so I pop in and out. Some recaps would be sweet.

My 58k mile 5 year old daily driver. I did not expect this brake job to be such a fight. Every new car becomes a project car on a long enough timeline.

gm bsky Went for a ride last night after putting the new battery in. Golden hour hits a little eerie with wildfire smoke clouding the sky. Relax if you can, step back from the timeline, and maybe do some offline planning with your inner circle if you get the chance. Stay on the same page.
