My Pregnant Wife Rides in the Racecar for the First Time
Переглядів 2722 роки тому
As you can tell by her reaction, I think she has gotten too used to riding right seat with me these past 7 years 😂. I did get a giggle out if her though. Those lateral g forces will do it. The best parts hands down, was her exiting the car though. And no, I didn’t push the limits with my pregnant wife and unborn child in the car.

In this video we take a look at a very cool alternative to the main three. With only 2000 examples worldwide and 600 in the states, there’s a very slim chance you will ever see one of these.!

    Around 1980, I bought a 1973 Midget as my driving to work car. The last model before the bumper laws went into effect. Loved that car. These little cars are the most fun you can have in a car going 45 mph. If you decide to get one, I would suggest these improvements: do a front disc brake conversion; invest in an electronic ignition system. You'll thank me every time you are caught in the rain. Have a professional tune the carburetors, someone that REALLY knows how to do it. Install a horn loud enough to overwhelm a police siren. In a car this little, and the standard size of an American SUV, if you have need to blow your horn, you REALLY want to get the other guy's attention NOW. The standard horn won't do that.

    Here's what you can say that hasn't been said much about an MX5, and seems to be missed by almost all reviewers on YT, IT'S NOT A FREAKIN Miata. Mazda dropped the name "Miata" back in the early 2000's, so why do people still incorrectly call it a Miata, which is a horrible girlie name. And I agree with you, "Girl car my ass"! It was NEVER called a Miata in Europe or Asia. It's actually called the Roadster, which is the foundational premise of the car. So the one thing you can say that isn't said very much about the MX5, is that it is no longer called a Miata. Spread the news... Enjoyed the humorous comments, like the factory lift kit... Lol. Cheers. Good vid.

    Had one back in the early '70's; BRG , black interior/black top. No mention of the fact that the windshield was so short it required 3 windshield wipers as it wasn't tall enough for only 2. One of my favorite memories is one summer night when I was driving down LSD (Lake Shore Drive for non-Chicagoans) and a guy pulled up alongside us in an XKE and passed my girlfriend a joint.

    Words can't describe how much I want one. I absolutely love fast sedans. And this Saab has to be the coolest out there. The design is so manly and somehow sinister. The build quality is great. The engine and drivetrain is superb. It is so hard to find a bad thing about this car. It is a car for people who actually understand cars. The German cars are very good (M3, S4, C63) but this Saab makes them all look ordinary and boring.

    It's usually easy to spot an airplane timing cars. Look for a relatively low plane making loops around a section of road ahead of you. You should be able to see them a mile or two ahead of you clearly following the road but maybe off to the side. You will also spot painted markings across the road. The plane times you going from one painted mark to the next one. They are a specific distance apart and a stopwatch will tell the plane your speed.
