  1. The rumor last year of Merc partnering with Aramco turned out to be false (or at least the end result did not happen, but they could have talked). However, AMF1 has now entered into a “strategic partnership” with them. https://www.astonmartinf1.com/en-GB/news/announcement/amf1-and-aramco-enter-a-long-term-strategic-partnership
  2. Going back to this post, scarbs explains this in more detail.

    For used, Discogs is the place. Sometimes eBay, but you have to 100% know what you are looking for there. For new, there is of course Amazon, but there’s lot of good record stores that sell online. The In Groove, Acoustic Sounds (they do fantastic AAA reissues themselves, and the same company owns Quality Record Pressings, and the reissue label Analogue Productions), and Plaid Room Records are some. If you aren’t US based though then those than be iffy. AS does ship internationally with a $50 minimum, though (I think).
  4. They do design their own aero, but they have to design them to the regulations. This are a visualization of the legal area to put bodywork. Even then, there are many more rules than just that, like requiring the front wing main planes to connect to the nose, defining their minimum curvature, etc.
  5. A long time, since they are lithium ion.
  6. I have used my little jump box to help 4 other people out, but haven’t had to use it for myself, yet. They are great for when you get stranded. The NOCO ones are good but are also pricey. I have an Audew or some Chinese brand that reviewed well from some guy on YouTube.
  7. Update | Mercedes refutes According to Motorsport.com, Mercedes had failed the crash test for the new Formula 1 season, but Mercedes tells GPBlog that this is false: "We completed homologation several weeks ago." They did pass the test and have already received approval from the FIA and Formula One. Mercedes is therefore ready to present the new Mercedes W13 on February 18. [emoji2369]
  8. Rhett Shull has some good videos on the PLEK machine.
  9. The S is comparable to a One X, but a tad more powerful IIRC.
  10. Goddamn Doug, good stuff. Beautiful example of an adult Red-Tailed, there.
  11. I do like the other Cadillac V stuff, I just think the Escalade is an abomination. It’s like bedazzled jeans.
  12. Oh no, it’s going to be worse than it already is.
  13. Just what everyone wanted, more hypercars. Not.
  14. Another fun fact: The J Mascis Signature JM pickups are basically P-90 lite under a JM cover (wider and flatter bobbin but with P-90 construction, with maybe a little less output).
  15. Yeah, they are pretty different. Both are single coils, but the JMs are kind of just oversized tele/strat style pickups but are fatter with a more full kind of tone. P-90s have a bar magnet instead of pole piece magnets (the PAF is constructed almost kind of like a dual coil P-90), and their sound really is kind of a hybrid between the PAF and single coil twang, which is why they are fucking awesome.
  16. I also wish at could go back to these style PCs. Also, throwback to the GOAT PC question: Just watching their faces slowly turn from serious to holding in laughs kills me every time.
  17. To be fair it’s not officially official yet, but coming from Dieter Rencken is pretty solid info.
  18. It does suck for the fans, but it is a positive for the team members who are now on the road more than ever, so I’m good with it. The easy solution is of course to just have fewer races, but yeah.
  19. https://racingnews365.com/f1-makes-major-changes-to-weekend-schedule-for-2022 Big changes to weekend schedule. Condensing everything into 3 days instead of 4, and changing the FP2 times to be 2 hours later and back to 90 minutes each for FP1/2.
  20. Remembered that I have a few shots of La Mota mountain from Papalotito Colorado.
