      Agree. A fan of Freddie but can't stand Paddy. So hard to watch that show when 2 of the 3 don't really know what they're on about. Still persisting with the same format as Clarkson, May and Hammond just doesn't work either.

      Need to fuck the other 2 off. I like them both in their own right but not as car journalists. Chris Harris is being cheapened by the stupid antics too. Let him be a nerd. He's the modern Tiff Nedell. Give him another charismatic co presenter (sabine was always the perfect candidate and I said it as soon as Chris came to Top Gear) stop trying to replicate the Clarkson Hammond and may dynamic and let things develop naturally.

    5:25 Decades ago a friend of mine said, "When you arise before the dawn, you own the day". It has stuck with me for many years. I don't know if it is a well known phrase or if he made it up. Anyway, I am up before the dawn almost every day and the feeling of being up and going early really does wonders for my mindset. If you are struggling with a busy mind, or feeling stressed and overwhelmed all the time, go to bed early, get up early and see what happens. Hopefully it will help you too.

Yes, standard commuter cars and daily-driver cars will likely be all electric in the relatively near future. However, due to there being such a massive and passionate following in motorsports and sports cars in general, manufacturers like Porsche or even Mazda who really care about the driving experience will never leave us behind. Even if emissions restrictions continue to get stricter, there are incredibly smart engineers (hopefully me one day😅) who will do everything they can to keep combustion engines around. And even if legislation dictates that cars must be electric, there would be such a massive protest to it, they would have no choice but to compromise. I don't think we have anything to worry about just yet.

    Spring rate is relative to the suspension design. Previous 911s used cheaper McPherson strut front end. The few benefits of that setup, beyond manufacturing/assembly costs, is, typically, more direct steering feel and a nearly 1:1 effect of the spring on the tire, AKA the spring rate at the wheel. Double wishbone offers dynamic camber gain (keeps tire contact patch stuck to the pavement), but loses the almost 1:1 spring rate to wheel rate factor, hence the stiffer spring rates chosen. Suspension nerds will commonly talk about the "motion ratio" of the springs when building aftermarket coilover setups. All that matters is the spring rate experienced by at the wheel.

      They’ll make a 992.2 but after that it’ll be 2026 maybe and Europe ban on new gasoline engines takes effect 2025 so legally they can’t make a new one best thing they can do is make another one with RWD electric assistant maybe add an extra 100 hp they would have to make the GT3RS even better if they did that tho. Just my thoughts but it’s very sad even Chris knows it’ll be one of the last
