Replacing blown struts - the night before a track day.
Business as usual.
Uggh, Winter
December is here in force, bringing freezing tempertures with it. My turbo Miata went into the garage a few weeks ago - my winter beater is an old BMW M3.
Every time I start daydreaming too much about a new car, my wife reminds me that I’ve got it pretty good already… then I remind her that both of my cars together cost us 2/3 of what hers did ;)

After spending time in the Porsche 911 Turbo, my car’s performance is just a little underwhelming.
