I swear they did a Skyline shoot around here too (along with filming an R32 commercial on the then-unfinished 105 freeway extension) but I can’t find it. Anyway here’s Art Force Silvia corner…

I was always amused that Nissan went all-in on LA, and when I discovered these I was walking by that corner all the time 😆… made for ME!

One of the best interactions I ever had on the old site was getting Chris McQuarrie to accept my fan theory:

Thief is a prequel to The Way Of The Gun and I will not be taking questions at this time (unless they're from @chrismcquarrie)

This was never the idea, but I'm willing to accept it if everyone insists.

I feel like the alt text is good to call out just in case. I encountered this intersection in person!

Kinda going in reverse order here I dunno, cars are fun. No photos of the most spectacular stretches of road because I have no way to photograph them while moving which I admit is on me (I left the GoPro at home)

Also we saw a Roxor! Parked next to a vehicle that can carry just as much get to all the same places if piloted with sufficient commitment and also a Polaris

I mean even without the (already surely a meme) Francis-points-out-a-train thing, I was excitedly pointing out a train. Not pictured: the Chevy Silverado road-rail vehicle driving in a spectacularly picturesque section of track a but later. I need a (good) dash camera (not a dashcam) for this stuff.

Towing aside.. .Honestly I’ve never used my insurance windshield repair service for fear of it increasing my already too high rate, so finding out you can get it through AAA…

Oops forgot to make a thread for understandable reasons (driving all day and out of reception most of the time) but it’s kinda funny that my throw out bearing picked precisely the furthest-out-point possible to finally pack it in. I’m home now! But needs to be fixed.
Also this was immediately after pulling off from PROBABLY the greatest stretch of road I’ve ever driven

Oh no it’s another thread and another DIGNITY SPRAY on the way into town… followed by a high-risk late-night glass cleaning
Spraying the car at a dingy pay n spray car wash that cost $1.75, quarters only, and didn’t offer a countdown timer but went for a really  long time! I only had to restart it once. Clean-seeming (but not really clean) car in front of LIQUOR EXPRESS because I need a treat after that long driveWindshield glass that looks very clear right now but boy I’m gonna see the streaks in the cold light of the day

Looks the the business, no? Unfortunately I don’t think I’ll ever be able to find a photograph of the original tire’s sidewall that said “FOR SPORTY DRIVE” on it

The grass on this hill is so sticky I think they got it from 3M or something. Except, curiously, on the off-camber corners coming down it…

I’ll never get tired of pointing out that the FR-S seats fold down dead-flat (of course they’re also basically fake seats). I’m very disappointed any time they aren’t totally flat.

At least the nice (albeit introverted) green is still coming, hopefully on more than six cars
Porsche people would have to pay the cost of an entire Miata to get this color on their car.

The bridge was implemented using an interleaved background animation that alternated between frames showing the bridge before and after its destruction.
A flag was used to instantly switch which frame to render as the background.
This doubled the amount of video data, making it prone to processing lag and CD reading issues, which was a nerve-wracking experience for the engineers.

Apparently they already refreshed the logotype in 2020 in a more subtle way (source: www.facebook.com/groups/77139... )

Sleeker, Faster, Lighter: Inside the 2020 Evolution of the McLaren Logo.
Miles Newlyn, a master of modern typography, led the 2020 refinement of the McLaren Group's visual identity. Rather than a total overhaul, Newlyn focused on "lightness and speed," subtly re-engineering the wordmark to feel more agile and digital-ready. By opening up the letterforms and smoothing the iconic "speedmark," he transitioned the brand from a heavy corporate aesthetic to a sleek, high-performance look that resonates with a younger audience.
This project is a testament to Newlyn's ability to inject energy into global icons. His portfolio includes the ingenious 25-symbol Unilever "U," the fluid identity for Tate, and the approachable branding for Sky. Having also refined the logos for Honda and Three, Newlyn remains a primary architect of the modern visual landscape, consistently balancing heritage with forward-thinking minimalism.

ICYMI McLaren has a new wordmark that is inspired by a historic reference but is otherwise indistinguishable from the wave of totally bloodless modern corpo redesigns (I do not like it). Looking forward to staying in one of their hotel group’s establishments though.

In their defense this is based on the signage of the family’s service station before they were a racing team or a car company, so it’s heritage… but I also think it’s ass
