@lnlogauge: E85 tends to rot things. Old fuel systems aren't E85 compatible, paper fuel filters turn into mush, injectors clog, that sort of thing.

Awesome. I like these space/planelopnik posts.

@jaymcminn: I agree that it looks much better in real life, but it's still really weird.

@pj134: very true...

@ferric oxide: I'm guilty of a few launches myself. The abuse isn't a big deal on the second gen cars, assuming you're not beating on a beat car.

@KillerRaccoon: :D The only negatives of the 3000gt are the weight and age. The most random crap just breaks, but it's generally cheaper than German parts.

@bmoreDLJ: I'd imagine nobody would even give you a second glance either. The Schuylkill Expressway sucks, it seems like there's a crash or two daily.

@pj134: totally off topic, but I used to live just as close when I was a kid. Was awesome seeing the planes fly over at ~400 feet

My dad's pickup is rusting as well, and even worse, it's constantly breaking parts for no good reason. Plus, when something does break, you can't normally just press in a

@wheatieboy: Maytag has been building nicer appliances for eons.

I downloaded a four and a half hour documentary about all the tech behind WRC. This got me well in the mood for it. Thank you.

I'm not sure, but that last pic may have just caused a nice hardon.

Drifted across 90% of a bridge sideways at 70mph.

@Bruthah: Nope, everyone had AWD. They proved their point and left the sport when Group B was killed.

@agies: except this is on I76 after it splits from the Turnpike, IIRC

@ruthless013: They do write notes during the stage. Well, tweak notes they've already written or mark dangerous stuff, but still.
