How in the heck do they get insured for these events? That makes me seriously uncomfortable. A waiver only goes so far if you're going to intentionally create a dangerous situation like that.

You can run anything you'd like provided you can prove the rollover potential is below some critical value. There's a formula in the SCCA rulebook for cars which aren't stock.

There might be a video, or something, which you've also already seen before, or is completely nonsensical. And when I say nonsensical, I mean Drinking Out of Cups will start to look like it's flowing from some sort of logic. Just check out this video for the otherwise splendid Rolls-Royce Ghost II:

This is not a car you finesse. You grab it by the scruff and boss it around. Don't ease into the brakes and trail it into a corner. Stab the brakes (and do it late. Like really late.), turn in, and get right back on the gas. If you don't boss the Z/28 around, it won't dance for you. It'll think you're a bitch and…

No it's not. Knock-offs were the soft covers placed on steel wheels, similar to the plastic covers we have today. You hit them with a hammer to loosen them.

Coupes which are compromised to create convertibles are lame. Ground-up convertibles are awesome. Miata. S2000. Datsun Roadster. MR2 Spyder. Alfa Spyder. Pretty mcuh any old British roadster.

There were a thousand other ways to make your point that weren't condescending. Why do people insist on being jerks on the internet. This is a civil discussion.

The next circle jerk for pretentious Jalops.

I'm envisioning sheet metal channels filled with this stuff to provide structural rigidity over that offered by conventional steel channels or unibody construction.

They're already scary close to last year's qualifying times IN PRACTICE SESSIONS. These cars will be faster than last year, mark my words.

Siiiiigh. Word salads. I will never understand why people do this. I was talking about acceleration, which is referenced in the comment I replied to.

Nah, rate of speed, while clumsy, is still accurate. You're thinking of "rate of change of speed"

Probably an engineer of some sort. It's a common unit used in engineering. Metric system is so much more convenient, but sometimes you've just got to deal in imperial units. So we apply SI prefixes to common imperial units. Kilopounds is one used so often, it got abbreviated. Plus, "kips" just sounds adorable.

lol.

This car is not a restomod...not even close. See here: http://jalopnik.com/the-secrets-of…

Demolition ain't cheap, especially for large structures.

I would think that is a good thing, as he may begin healing...

Ferrari LaFerrrari. Not because it's necessarily tough to pronounce, it's just tough to say out loud, because it's so stupid sounding. Y'all touched on this in the AfterDrive the other day. Seriously...weird.

"high waisted pants"

While I agree with you, it's difficult to put a price on exclusivity and heritage. This is why 40 year old 510s and 240Zs are still going for $10k-25k. I'm not going to berate you and try to convince you that it is the best car ever made, but I will say it is one of the most important car Nissan has ever made, and…
