Um, my car makes this loud sound like a buzzer going off whenever I'm driving it hard. Then as soon as I shift it stops. It usually starts around where the numbers turn red on the big gauge in the middle. Why does my car do that?
Also, does anyone know why they put 3 pedals in the car? I can tell that one is the brake and one is the gas, but I have no idea what that one on the far left is for. Whenever I push it my car stops accelerating. So I think that either it is broken or Mazda just put it there to mess with people because who on earth would want a pedal that makes it where you can't accelerate. Is there a DIY on how to take it off?
Oh and last question... Why does my gear shifting stick make bad grinding banging sounds when I change gears? Sometimes it wont even move without me having to use two hands and force it. Why?

I heard that it is bad to leave the winter tire(or any tire) outside exposed to direct sunlight during summer.
How about a summer tire you leave it outside during winter time and it is exposed to direct sunlight?

I saw this sig, I think it was RIWWP, where there were these graves stones. In front of the grave stones is a green field with rectangles representing the areas in the ground in which the grave holes were dug, but then filled in. Moving left-to-right, the rectangles show that the filled in holes are increasingly "fresh." The first one is "altezza" the third, "murdered out". I cant remember the fourth, but the third is only an icon. It is two elongated diamonds, one green and one yellow, and they meet along one long edge. It looks like a semi-closed book. The overall quality of the image is top-notch, and I am impressed how quickly and vividly the message is presented.
But what the hell is that symbol?
That is the question I want to know.

^It's Atilla, and the symbol is the Beginner Drivers' Sign in Japan.

We need stickers like that here! Sounds fantastic, one for people over 70-75 so you know who to avoid and the one for new drivers too.
They really are way ahead of us.

Depends on what you are using right now? How many miles you have? Most importantly, which one you prefer?
Lots of people here like me use synthetic with no problem, others use regular with no problem. It is a personal preference.
