I know things and squeak a lot. Begrudgingly Seattle.
Today in: Weird Obscure Car Info I stumbled across an Autozam AZ-1 with rally headlights, assuming it was a bodykit, only to go down a rabbit hole of discovering M2, a defunct performance division of Mazda, which made about 25 total units of the rally-styled AZ-1s called "M2 1015"
You can really only tilt the nose up and down (side-to-side is much slower) so you gotta flip onto your side and look 'up' to turn like you're a NASCAR banking up on the wall at high speed so you don't have to slow down to go around a corner.

Going through old videos and reminding myself I really need to get my PS3 fixed so I can play ACFA again.
It was a whole vibe and a whole time I hope they never do something like this again. (Make it worse next time).
And lastly, recorded proof 2 years minus 13 days that I got him BEFORE the Nerfs.
It's also been 2 years minus 1 day since I smacked Midra's bitch ass around
It's been 2 years since SOTE so that means it's been 2 years and 1 days since I first beat Rellana
If the metaphor isn't obvious enough,The Amazing Digital Circus is a Ratatouille moment. As an older, self-proclaimed, media-negative critic I was pleasantly reminded of my teenage years with End of Evangelion in russian 240p streams, and I think the kids will be alright. It's new. Be kind to it.
Jesus fucking crist what did I just post I really am him what the hell is wrong with me, go watch patlabor you cynical fucks
From had 18 months to acknowledge that the camera assist in AC6 was fundamentally broken and encouraged only 2 builds to be viable in S-rank, and instead of doing anything with that they just kept buffing weaker parts with incorrect hopes that it would drive players to change behavior instead.
Somewhere, a Fio Germi cosplayer is waking up at 4 am for a Buzz Rickson's restock notification of the $75 USAF reproduction ball cap.
Horny mechsploitation trans girls have it so easy these days, they get auto-tracking and a wide hitbox and a stagger system and melee boost to make a connection. Back in my day, you just rawdogged a 5 second lead-up in mid-air.
At long last I have finally tracked down the third and final of the souls male living spaces memes.
Meanwhile something like a 928 / C7 /Viper and Daytona are true "front mid engine" because every single -cylinder- is behind the centerline of the wheels/strut tower.
I suppose this distinction matters because it's the exact same reason porsche distinguishes "rear engine" 911s from "mid-engine" Caymans. The 718 engine is almost entirely inside the axle, but it's transmission sticks well past it. The 911 engine is on the other side.
The new Z has roughly the same airbox dimensions but the engine and it's accessories really do sit further ahead of the center line and it has more like a 57/43 weight distribution since they added ~200-300lbs over the nose. The strut tower crosses closer to the 1st/2nd cylinder bank, not the 3rd.
"Claimed" is doing a lot of heavy lifting because Nissan's definition of 'mid engined' is not that the whole engine sits behind the front axle (which isn't true in a lot of rear mid engined cars either) but that the majority of the engine's -weight- and cylinders are behind the front axle.
