Are those the one with the biodegradable wire shielding as well?

Anyone with a 2021+ Tahoe/Suburban/Yukon in here?
Considering upgrading the tow rig soon.

Spoke to one of the civil engineers I work with in regards to designing a bridge to handle such an impact. "Are we supposed to design buildings to withstand plane impacts too?" :dat: :iswydt: fun fact. We DID design buildings to withstand plane impacts. But, dank memes melt steel beams. :...

That's badass!

I really enjoyed the 3D re-release.

I missed the 3D release and saw the IMAX version, which was enjoyable. The drive-in experience was cool because they showed an actual film print of the movie.

1. Positive - got a raise today. 3.5% increase to base salary which works out to about 2.63% to overall OTE.

Congrats man!

I've been really fortunate at my new job in regards to raises.
2022: 5.8%

Last summer, I went to the Mahoning drive-in to watch it and got Carl Gottlieb to sign my poster.

That's badass!

I haven't seen any of those but, I can say the E36 is a great driving car.
Now, finding one that isn't a show piece or clapped the fuck out... that's another issue entirely.

E90 with the S65 is just glorious.

They're not all that fast at HPDE days from what I've seen, but mostly due to driver I'm sure. They are certainly highly capable.

And I'm not the greatest driver but, the general consensus was the E90 or the M2 Comp were better choices.
Still, and F80 M3 manual sedan would be a dope ass DD.

I did the math, it checks out.

I didn't read a lot of positive reviews about the F80 platform when it came to driving one on the track. "The rear end feels disconnected from the rest of the car." was the most common issue. Anyone here who has had/has one, care to offer insight? Also the crank hub issue kinda concerned m...

Down Periscope is excellent. Definitely worth a watch.
