Drive a stick in the snow. You can downshift as you approach a place you need to stop, and downshifting slows the car while keeping the wheels rotating. When you lock up the wheels braking you're toast. The manual transmission helps prevent that. 

I did this with my kids to teach the to drive with their ass. Using it to determine what direction the car is going in. 

and the Illusion (at least) that you would be better protected if you got into an accident

Cherokey, or Cherokie, No longer violates the name.

As an AMC fan, I’m just going to say it. I like the 70-72 Gremlin’s (with the V8)

Really? No <Rimshot>?

The Youtuber Rich Rebuilds, and the Zero EV channels have some great shows on this kind of conversion.  the Zero EV guys used a 3D camera to map out the Engine bay of a Miata to do the CAD design work for the EV controls.

Why do cars need to lock when you get over a certain speed?  It’s not for safety as, you can use the handle to get out (usually). It’s the first thing I turn off, EVEN in Rental cars, if the manual is there.

3M makes a great kit that goes on the Drill. It has the sandpaper, polishing compound etc. I’ve used it multiple times (for different cars), and I think you can get refills for it if you have multiple cars.

You get just as good as a connection with a Crimping Butt connector. I prefer the T&B kinds and using a good pair of crimpers help.

I use a black notebook (like a moleskin), anything I make 2 -3 times that I like I transcribe it there, with the source. I like the idea of an online backup though, might have to do that.

Returning to school after successfully fighting a traffic ticket, in the left lane on Rt 3 in Braintree and just before a small hill, to see a car moving towards me, passenger side 4 inches away from the Jersey barrier. I swear a little old woman, looking thru the steering wheel driving at 15 MPH.

The feeling of all 4 wheels slipping, and the car letting physics determine in which direction it will travel, rather than you, when you discover you are travelling on black/white ice.

um, maybe these birds are Critics of the cars you own..  Just saying it’s possible.

Ferrari for sure, unless they go back to 10 cylinders.

The Donald Traitor family, ( I mean Trump, I keep getting that mixed up) would never stoop to letting the “help” use the facilities.

I’m glad you showed the J2000 he started on. I remember reading about it in Hot Rod when it debuted. All that beautiful stainless in that Roll cage. I tried to find out where that wound up, but no idea who owns it now.

and pardons if there is in the next 10 days

or enroll the company in a Jelly of the Month club instead of a Christmas Bonus...

I got back into papercraft during Covid shutdown and I have a couple of cars that I have built. Only have one Pic in my phone as I’m at work. I have an Audi Quattro sport as well. Here’s another on the to build list.
