AUTOMOTIVE

An Affordable Sports Car Experience

By Ron Moorhead 2020 Toyota 86 shows its mettle on tight, twisting curves.

we are always happy when a new sports car shows up for us to review. It has no effect on our joy if it is an entry level model or over-the-top super exotic.

Granted, one may add to the excitement and anxiety, but the joy of driving is in your experience.

A joyful drive was exactly what was in our future following the delivery of the 2020 Toyota 86 Hakone Edition. While

we will get into the full description of the Toyota 86, we think it good we explain the Hakone Edition.

The Hakone Turnpike is a road just over one hour from Tokyo yet seems years from the bustling city center. To some it is considered the Nürburgring of Japan, which means it is burnt into the car culture of the world as a great driver’s road. Not only is it a carnival of

curves for drivers, it is also the platform for some of the most incredible views of Mount Fuji.

But the views are not why Toyota has placed the Hakone name upon this special edition sports car. It is to honor this famous road and the driving enthusiasm found while trekking the Hakone Turnpike.

Which is a great segue into the Toyota 86. We love rear-wheel drive, two-seat sports cars. And while the 86 technically has a rear seat it would be best left to inanimate objects such as luggage and the like. So, the 86 fits our two-seat requirements.

The design and engineering requirements for the 86 were just as specific as most true affordable sportscars. Number one, be affordable, from there, make it handle well, have good performance and inject the excitement of driving in the drive. The 86 fulfills on all accounts.

Yes, there are faster, better handling and more powerful sports cars, but affordability escapes most of those others.

The power is the job of the 2.0-liter, normally aspirated, horizontally opposed, boxer four-cylinder engine. Why boxer you might ask? Originally this vehicle was developed via a partnership between Toyota and Subaru. Apparently, Subaru oversaw powertrain development. Not a bad thing. This engine develops 205 horsepower and 156 lb-ft. of torque. Not massive amounts of power but in the smallish stature of the 86 it performs well. Our question, where is the turbocharged version? That would put an even wider smile on our faces.

As appropriate, the engine’s power reaches the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission that would be greatly missed if Toyota bowed to growing trends of automatics only. Thankfully with the 86 they stayed true to sports car tradition keeping the manual. However, to have the 86 fit into a wider buyer profile there is a very capable six-speed automatic available.

Japan's Halkone Turnpike. Submitted

The 86 Hakone Edition features an appropriately named exterior color, Hakone green. Offsetting the exterior are 17” twisted spoke bronze wheels and a black spoiler.

Moving to the interior we see several unique elements — most noticeable are the attractive tan and black Alcantara seats complemented with tan trim and black stitching. A tan Toyota 86 logo is embroidered on the passenger-side dashboard. The leather wrapped steering wheel has a good feel in the hands offering excellent control thanks to the capable suspension system.

Naturally, as we see in all current vehicles today, the 2020 Toyota 86 is equipped with a bevy of interior amenities. The passenger compartment will keep you and your passenger comfortable beyond the supportive bucket seats.

The 86 offers a multimedia audio system including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, with 7-in. touch-screen display, 8 speakers, USB media and charging port, hands-free phone capability and Bluetooth wireless technology with steering wheel audio controls.

CALIFORNIA OUTDOORS Q&A

Homemade Bottle Traps Homemade bottle traps

Question: Is it legal to use a homemade plastic bottle trap in lakes and other freshwater bodies? (Anonymous) Answer: The 2020-2021 Freshwater Sport Fishing Regulations state: “Except as otherwise authorized, all fish may be taken only by angling with one closely attended rod and line (or with two rods if the angler is in possession of a valid two-rod stamp).”

However, there are two exceptions: 1) Traps can be used to catch bait fish, but only certain kinds of bait fish can be taken or used in particular bodies of water in the different fishing districts (see sections 4.05 – 4.30 of the Freshwater Sport Fishing Regulations for bait fish capture methods and bait fish use).

2) California also allows the taking of crayfish with traps that are not over three feet long. Homemade traps made from soda bottles can be very effective.

Additionally, several closures designed to protect Shasta Crayfish are mentioned in California’s Freshwater Sport Fishing Regulations in Title 14 section 5.35. Fall River upstream of Spring Creek Bridge, Lava Creek, Tule River and all connected waters upstream of Little Tule River, Sucker Springs Creek, Crystal Lake, Rising River and Rising River Lake are closed to take and possession of crayfish.

(See Title 14 section 4.30 for prohibition against crayfish use for bait in sections of the Pit River).

Bonito regulations

Question: I have a question regarding Pacific bonito. California Code of Regulations, Title 14, section 28.32 (b) says the minimum size is “24 inches fork length or five pounds except that: Five fish less than 24 inches fork length or weighing less than five pounds may be taken and possessed.” Does that mean I can take and

possess five Pacific bonito or less if they are any length less than 24 inches fork length?

For example, could I legally keep two 12inch Pacific bonito per day? (Arthur) Answer: Your interpretation of Title 14 section 28.32 is correct, so long as you possess five or fewer Pacific bonito less than five pounds or 24 inches fork length.

Should you catch six or more bonito, you may only keep five fish under five pounds or 24 inches fork length and you cannot catch or possess more than 10 total.

So, assuming you did not already have more than three Pacific bonito shorter than 24 inches in your possession (which includes those at home), your example of two bonito with a length of 12 inches per day would be legal as long as the total number under five pounds or 24 inches in your possession did not exceed five and the total number in your possession did not exceed 10.

Clyde

Question: What fish are legal to bowfish for in Kern County? (Sam) Answer: Generally speaking, bow and arrow fishing is permitted year-round in Kern County for the following species: carp, goldfish, western sucker, Sacramento blackfish, hardhead, Sacramento pikeminnow and lamprey. However, the regulations differ when bowfishing at Isabella Lake in the Kern River Valley. Bow and arrow fishing is permitted in Lake Isabella for the taking of carp, goldfish, western sucker, Sacramento blackfish, hardhead, Sacramento pikeminnow, lamprey, bullheads and catfish, per California’s Freshwater Sport Fishing Regulations in Title 14 section 2.25.

Bringing a non-hunter along on a hunt

Question: Is it all right for me to bring a companion with me for quail hunting?

They would not be assisting me in any way (flushing birds, calling, etc.) and would be merely shadowing me for the experience.

(Kraig) Answer: Yes, you’re fine having a com-

N O RT H COAST T R A D E R • JA N . 1 2 – JA N . 2 5 , 2 021

in

Rem panion along for the hunt, as long as they don’t participate in the actual attempt to take a bird. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) recognizes that many non-hunters join licensed hunters in the field while hunting to get an idea of what it is all about. We encourage the practice and consider it a vital part of passing along the tradition of hunting. If your friend is interested in getting involved in hunting, please have them check out the Hunter Education page on the CDFW website.

Auto-renewing a fishing license

Question: I recently bought my 2021 fishing license at a sporting goods store. I found out after the fact that CDFW is now offering an auto-renewal option. I don’t remember being offered that option when I bought my license. When I buy my hunting license, can I sign up for auto- renewal of both licenses? (Arnold) Answer: CDFW recently began offering auto-renewal for sport fishing licenses. If you choose this option, the credit card you provide will be charged annually in November and the next year’s fishing license will be mailed to you. This convenient option means that anglers no longer need to worry about lapses in licensure occurring during transitions to new license years. At this time, the option is only available for sport fishing licenses. CDFW expects to expand the program to include hunting licenses and related items in the future.

The only way to enroll in auto-renewal is through our Online License Sales and Services website. License agents, CDFW sales offices and telephone sales representatives cannot set up the required Customer Record Security Settings and credit card information for a customer’s record. However, regardless of how you purchased your license, you have the ability to enroll in auto-renewal at a later date by logging into your customer record through our Online License Sales and Services website.

How to Reduce Your Recovery Time After a Tough Workout PHOTO SOURCE: Š Ridofranz / iStock via Getty Images Plus

(statepoint) More Americans are investing their time and energy in the pursuit of fitness these days, with the percentage of people belonging to gyms and health clubs nearly doubling from 2000-2017, according to Statista.

Beyond casual workouts, participation in extreme sports and endurance events has grown exponentially in the past 25 years. Whether you’ve recently started exercising, are ramping up your eorts or have always been an avid sports enthusiast, you’ve probably dealt with soreness and fatigue after a tough workout.

While rest days are critical for ath-

letes and exercisers of all levels, no one wants to be sidelined for too long and lose their momentum. To turbocharge your recovery process and get back into the game faster, consider these techniques: • Complete a dynamic warm-up: Before physical activity, perform a dynamic warm-up to wake up muscles and get oxygen and blood flowing. Take your body through its full range of motion with effective moves, including high knees, butt kicks, forward and sideways leg swings and shoulder rolls. • Consider CBD: With a similar molecular structure to the naturally oc-

curring endocannabinoids produced by the human body, cannabidiol (CBD) sports supplements can assist with your preparation, performance and recovery, according to research. • Check out the hemp-derived, custom-formulated supplements from Champions + Legends, which offers a portfolio of products used by some of the world’s most elite athletes to help keep them training, performing and recovering at a high level, including James Harrison, a two-time Super Bowl champion, HafÞór “Thorâ€?

if you push your limits, it’s important to remember that improving athletic performance is a gradual process. Be mindful of your current strength, endurance and flexibility and learn to distinguish between normal soreness and discomfort, and pain that could be a sign it’s time to slow down or take a break.

• Cross-train: The same type of exercise day in and day out can make you more susceptible to physical and mental burnout. Cross-training will not only give you an edge in your main sport, it can also help you recover faster.

• Foam roll: You don’t need a big budget or much time to receive the positive benefits of a deep tissue massage. Give yourself the spa treatment at home. Post workout, foam roll to reduce tension of large muscle groups and targeted areas.

The harder the foam roller’s density, the deeper into muscle tissue you can go.

You may find it helpful to have multiple rollers to choose from, depending on the muscle area and your level of soreness that day.

• Refuel rapidly: Good nutrition is essential for swift recovery. Be sure to refuel quickly after tough workouts to aid muscle repair.

You only have one body, so treat it well. Seek out the tools and knowledge you need to fully recover, faster. ✦ © Puzzles by Pappocom Medium #2

“Might just do that, Windy,” said Steve. “But if you don’t mind me asking, why are you helping out with the coffee in here rather than cleaning up somebody’s yard.”

Windy looked around to see if the other 43 people in the café could hear, then leaned down toward Steve. “Lot warmer in here than it is in somebody’s yard, and thassa fact.”F Brought to you by Slim’s latest novel “Cock-a-Doodle Death” What happens when a chicken’s ghost haunts Home Country.
