QOTD: So, How You Doing This Morning?
QOTD: So, How You Doing This Morning?-November 2024

Image for article titled QOTD: So, How You Doing This Morning?

I don’t mean to steal Erik Shilling’s favorite reverse gear, but we were talking in our Jalopnik Slack this morning about how best to serve you, our readers, on this deeply weird day. Our mission here is always to do the best by you, which begs the question: how are you doing today?

Personally, I’m exhausted. I had a blood draw to do today but canceled it as I already feel my life-force slowly slipping away and don’t need a probably slightly hungover phlebotomist taking any more. We all knew last night would be a mess, but why is it a surprise?

Today our plan, as always, is to edu-tain our readers about cars and car-related issues. Why mess with what we know? Anyway, tell us how you’re doing in the comments. What you’re thinking and feeling, how was your election night, and hell, post some pictures of your good-ass cars. I think we could all use a distraction as we step forward into a very uncertain history.

This Subaru WRX Plays Initial D Eurobeat Music When You Step on the Gas
This Subaru WRX Plays Initial D Eurobeat Music When You Step on the Gas
Japanese car enthusiast and apparent technophile Stan LeJay has a Subaru GC8 with a few tuner mods, but the most interesting by far is his home-made infotainment system that cranks Initial D Eurobeat music when the throttle opens up. Hilarity ensues. Not that I endorse breaking the speed limit, but...

That Ridiculous S2000 Jump From 2Fast 2Furious Was More Impressive Than You Might Have Realized
