I actually had the opportunity to fly a 172 when I was in highschool. The only thing I wasn't allowed to do was take off or land, but as soon as we left the ground I was given full control.
Got to cruise around the coast and loop the island, then bring her down within 20ft of the airstrip before the pilot let her down. Was amazing and for a while I was really obsessed over becoming a military pilot, but I let that dream die.

Why is BMW leather so coarse and shitty feeling? It has the same texture as a football.
14 posts and 2 images submitted.

Have you ever seen real leather?
>>
>>17653365
because they fed their cows the wrong grass
>>
>>17653365
there are strict leather processing standards that they have to adhere to in Germany. Mercedes owns the rights to thinner, softer leather upholstery and therefore forces BMW to use a coarser standard.

Complete newbie here

My car's been having trouble starting up recently, I jump started it few times and now that doesn't even work anymore(still makes noises when I turn the ignition on).
This is my first car and I don't have too much experience with car maintenance, the battery's about 3 years. I'm thinking of taking the car to an auto shop and double check it's not a connection issue, then buy the battery there and just have them install the battery. But that means it would cost like 100 dollars to get the car towed and then checked.

Should I just buy the battery and install them myself? I don't have shit for tools, even the jumper cables I used was a friend's.

Go to walmart, buy a battery and a cheap socket set and ratchet. That'll get you to a shop cheaper than a tow

How does this car look for $2500, https://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/cto/6247515538.html . I'm looking for a car that's under 3k. Is it even worth it to go to a car dealership with only 3k, I dont want to make car payments right now I want to finish school. So far its either this or a 01 Honda accord with 196k miles and rust on the hood and back passenger wheel well.


Is there anything better in my area? I cant drive stick and dont want to learn.

I have a 99 XLE v6
It's been a great car, biggest problem has been the brakes
The steering is shit along with everything else related to driving being fun but the V6 has halfway decent acceleration
All around a great choice for a point A to B car but don't expect to get good MPGs out of it, i get low 20s in city and around 27 highway but mine is about to die though

>Is it even worth it to go to a car dealership with only 3k

no. dealerships are going to charge you 30%+ more than what the car is actually worth
>>

bretty good. I would pay closer to $2k

What's up guys?
Never posted to this board before but I'm a long time lurker. Some of you may have heard that the Skip Barber Racing school had declared bankruptcy. The company has since been bought, for less than a million US mind you, and is to be liquidated. I know this because I held a lead mechanic position at the time of the bankruptcy and the since collapse of the company. Anyone have any thoughts or questions about the school?
Has anyone here ever attended the school?

Just wondering if people care about this at all. The school meant a lot to me and I said that I would see it to the end, and she's gone.

That sucks. I never went but wanted to. I used to go to the 12 Hours of Sebring 2003-2007 and would always see their shop there.
>>
>>17652046
I wouldn't skip going to the barber just to go to racing school. I mean it's important to know how to drive well but you should also keep your hair clean and cut so you don't look like a hobo
>>
>>17652070

That shop was the second to the last to go. There was alot of crazy historic stuff in there up until they were evicted. Was my favorite track that we ran apart from laguna. It was ran by 1 guy for like 5 years when there were no programs happening at that track. The local bars knew our crew well and references can be found in the decorations of some of those places, the Blue Lagoon comes to mind.

Pic related, my brother has an 03 RAV4 and is in the market for a new one, but the current RAV4 is way bigger. He doesn't want a CUV, but something like his old RAV4. What is there anymore that wont break the bank?

Safety reasons and changing demands. Now that gas prices have settled down, people want bigger cars to carry all their shit.
>>
>>17651933
Honda HR-V and Mazda CX-3 are as close as you will get to the olden RAV4s.

New RAV4 is a fucking Tahoe in comparison to it's predecessors.
>>
>>17652008
Cx3 is an AWD hatchback. No ground clearance. It beaches on a curb

LMP1 programs cost nearly $250 million

F1 efforts cost $44 million

Indy car teams $15 million

How do you fix LeMans?

10w30 is lawn mower oil. Relevant engines use 40wt

>>17651181
When your busted up heap burns out its oil next to the dollar tree that's where you buy your oil. People who shop for consumables at fucking dollar tree can't afford to make smart decision ahead of time. Same reason they blow 10 grand they don't have going to an emergency room instead of spending 200 to go to a doctor ahead of time.

And holy shit the captcha is an intersection I take everyday.

Are leather seats a meme?

I've never really found them pleasant to sit in during drives. or is it just me being a poorfag

It's a meme, they are worse than carpet seats, feels like a frying pan in the summer, feels like a block of ice in the winter

Real leather is nice but it requires too much maintenance. What you get in speced up econoboxes is generally plastic leather.

I've been driving my m4 for 2 years now and I'm thinking it's time to upgrade to something better now.

I've driven a couple porsche's and although they're pretty fun to drive, they're not really my thing.

I have a g-class that I use when family comes over or for costco runs so practically isnt really an issue.

I'm leaning towards an r8 or an i8 if I want to be all environmentally friendly. I was about to get a huracan but the tax here in Canada is killin me

Any dreamers or richfags here willing to help with my research?
