At Brands yesterday. Would Sir Alec approve? Yes, I rather think he would, (and it's not like me to be keen to try a Mini.)

Redoing my Recaros and thinking of branching away from the traditional.

These look sharp to me...

If it’s a 911 houndstooth or plaid. VW Plaid. Not a fan of gingham on cars, houndstooth just looks so much better. BMW alacantara stripes. American Muscle... depends.

Which Recaro's?
Same model you have pictured?
What car are they going into and what is the color?

Every new season I always tell myself I'm going to watch more MotoGP...and then I never do.
If I'm, in the US, what is the best way to watch? Live or Replay?

Live can be a pain as it happens at 2 PM local time wherever the race is being held. I prefer BeIN sports and my DVR for coverage, but many people pay for the live streaming which allows you see see practice and qualifying also.

Gotcha. I encounter the same thing with F1.
Most of the time I don't watch the races live, but am able to replay them on the ESPN app when I wake up.

Also testing at Brands today, more MX5s than I'd imagined ever rolled off the production line:

To Tunbridge Wells this morning to see my one week old Granddaughter. On leaving I needed to fill-up and was confronted at the Texaco station with a fairly heady collection of motors:

I can't WAIT till the riveted on wide-body craze goes away.
