I enjoy military articles. This post has literally nothing at all to do with cars or other neat hardware though... Doesn’t belong on Jalopnik.

This isn’t a military hardware post, it’s not relevant.

I clicked on it to complain. Take your attitude elsewhere.

Sorry, but why the heck is this on Jalopnik? This relates to cars how exactly?

With its giant custom tires and the skid-steer, it can also turn in its own length, which is 111.5 feet. And as long as the trees ahead are at least 82.63 feet apart, this crazy two seater will find a way through them.

Man, what an ugly car. That interior is nice looking though... and the efficiency stats are pretty impressive.

“All three hypercars at the wonderful Portimao circuit. Each of them from the respective factories. Lap times, sliding around, smiling and then a track-battle with the legends Tiff Needell and Marino Franchitti. The very best of days.”

Never stop being yourself, Jason. It’s why we love you... and also why we’re slightly worried about you.

I’m not. I wish I was.

and if you want a bit more back story...

Believe me or not... I did the swap in a bit over an hour.

As a counterpoint. I spun a rod bearing midway across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel... Limped it into Virginia Beach and found a shop that head bearings though, and swapped them out in a handily abandoned gas station. So I guess it wasn’t that bad....

My brother ran his 1.8L VW engine out of gas... The apparently incredibly lean mixture was letting in enough air while he was WOT (cause he had no clue why it suddenly started sputtering) to peg it to well beyond 8500 RPM when he pushed in the clutch to down shift... No long term damage was noticeable, haha

Ugh, man... I’ve got a track day this weekend and I’m half expecting that to happen. :(

To be fair, it looks like these are properly engineered with little walls to block the light from the low beam LEDs, and the focal points are reasonably close to normal Halogen focal points. Look at where the filaments line up vs the LEDs, not too bad.

Rebuilding and or replacing my stupid GTI’s engine six times... Having never touched engine internals before... The first three rebuilds went well enough. The fourth failed miserably spinning a rod bearing within miles. The fifth (built by a shop) failed immediately when the pistons met the valves and smashed the rod…

Replacing rod bearings on a road trip... Twice. Once in an abandoned gas station parking lot, once in an advance auto parking lot.

That’s a curb strike... not grinding the side of the wheel on a curb as if you were attempting to park and forgot you were driving a wide car or something...
