One Lap of America

@CPAutoScribe But what a way to go

Pretty sure this restaurant is straight-up trying to kill people. 😵😵

@Mike_M_Klotz @CPAutoScribe @FactoryFive @Acura @Toyota Fields auto.

@CPAutoScribe @FactoryFive @OfficialOLOA @Acura @Toyota Tell me more about this guy:

And we’re underway at One Lap of America 2024. Let’s go!! #OLOA2024 #OLOA #OneLap

@CPAutoScribe @gninoked @morganmotor @MorganWest7 @A1GOY @AlexRoy144 @rkarides Caterham yes. Morgan. No.

@gninoked @morganmotor @MorganWest7 @A1GOY @AlexRoy144 @rkarides Excellent question. @OfficialOLOA, what say ye? (I've only been with the event since '97, but I can't recall seeing one over that time. There have been masochists in similarly sparse machines like Caterhams, though...)

Friends, it’s time to come clean. I’ve been keeping a big secret since Halloween. Meet Bimble, our new Morgan Super 3. I placed a deposit in March of ‘22, so we waited patiently a long time. It’s real, it’s spectacular and it's already got over 700 miles on it. It's family.

We are nearly finished the route for 2024. Any guesses where we are going for our 40th anniversary?

Automotive media and influencer friends: What was your first press car? If you don't count various @CARandDRIVER loans that I drove incidentally while staffing One Lap Of America, here's mine: 2005 Subaru Forester XS L.L. Bean Edition, complete with scenic Cleveland backdrops:

@miatatweets Also, how most of our teams drive after having stopped at Taco Bell.

OMG

Clarifying: in addition to the May event that starts/ends in South Bend…

Who would be interested in a West Coast based event? Let us know what state you would be coming from!

@eyemsolomon @JensonButton @JensonButton come on out and have some fun with us May 2024. It’s the most fun you can have with your clothes on in a car.

@JensonButton Come and drive in the 2024 One Lap of America. @OfficialOLOA

Happy times but a little emotional knowing this was the last time I’d drive this monster 😊😕

Let’s help this driver find a different profession @FedEx @CherryHillPD RT73 south at 4:43pm today.

@CPAutoScribe @NissanUSA @NissanJP @itsvantime @NissanMotor This is pretty cool and comfortable. However, I’d imagine the smell of the fabric on a hot summers day would be the same as a dry cleaners…

As I live and breathe, CA Craigslist has EVERYTHING. 1986. Nissan. Van. GXE. Gaze in slack-jawed wonder at this two-tone space egg. Safety-second cabover seating position. Factory fridge. When was the last time you saw one? (Have you *ever* seen one?) inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/d/hesperia…

@CPAutoScribe One of Brockers favorite cars to talk about. I think he secretly wants one. Someone should buy this and leave it on his doorstep!

.@OfficialOLOA rebirth in 3…2…

@CPAutoScribe Remind me not to bother you before breakfast.

Woke up this morning from a dream in which there was a TV playing an IHOP add for Jalapeño Murder Pancakes. ("Limited time only!") I have no idea where this idea came from. I don't think I've been to an IHOP in 10 years.

@CPAutoScribe @Huckberry Next up…. Crocks driving shoes. Can’t wait for THAT “Performance mode.”

Croc *BOOTS*?! Wow, @Huckberry. Just… wow. huckberry.com/store/crocs

@CPAutoScribe @BenihanaUK @steveaoki @Porsche @RadwoodOfficial @donutmedia @theRealTavarish @vinwiki @edbolian @the_autopian Anyone who buys this and runs it in the 2024 event, I will comp you! Caveat, you must tweet and broadcast EVERYTHING throughout the event.

As I live and breathe, CA Craigslist has EVERYTHING. 1974. Porsche. 911. Targa. LIMOUSINE. Gaze in slack-jawed wonder at this ex-One Lap special built for Benihana founder Rocky Aoki. It’s got a bed, a sink and a 959 body kit. What else could you need? losangeles.craigslist.org/lac/cto/d/los-…

@commonnotcommon @CPAutoScribe @BenihanaUK @steveaoki @Porsche @RadwoodOfficial @donutmedia @theRealTavarish @vinwiki @edbolian @the_autopian That’s what you get when the rear catches fire…

@CPAutoScribe @BenihanaUK @steveaoki @Porsche @OfficialOLOA @RadwoodOfficial @donutmedia @theRealTavarish @vinwiki @edbolian @the_autopian No hibachi grill!?! WTF!?!

@CPAutoScribe @BenihanaUK @steveaoki @Porsche @RadwoodOfficial @donutmedia @theRealTavarish @vinwiki @edbolian @the_autopian Could use @steveaoki next year!

@CPAutoScribe We’ve seen ambition try to overcome physics on the One Lap many times. He could be a candidate for 2024!

You've gotta respect the chutzpah and commitment, if nothing else. Me, I probably would've taken the opportunity to revisit this Honda's unfortunate front- and rear-end styling.
