    Does anyone know anything about racing simulators and home set ups? My 10 year old is getting fairly serious with kart racing.

    Also got some 911s for sale. Practical family cars. Good for a track weekend or two....

    IIRC the beemers were the bikes, and the bimmers were the cars.

    iRacing is the standard I think. Fanatec if you're spending money, but the Logitech isn't bad. Wheel is much better than the pedals.

    Is Bimmer Beemer like pop vs soda?

    Feels like I hear Beemer more on this coast.

    I don’t want to distract from the conversation, but I could swear that’s a Benz, no matter how it’s spelled.

    What's the story on the VW wagon in the background, looks to be low and built.

    The wagon was in the shop for something or other. Not sure what the deal is with it.

    Thats a Mercedes race car. What the hell is with all the BMW pet name talk?

    Those RC cars from the '80s were so much easier to work on than the newer ones.

    Not enough caffeine this morning, I didn't even look at the car, just went straight to one of my pet peeves, heh.
