And some rules have proven to be much more bendable than others... looks like this one just snapped back.

I give this De Nysschen guy 18 months before he's shown the door.

You can't argue with the brute force of the F4, but personally I think the F-18 puts on a better show...

Guaranteed it will be less than 200... that's an easy win.
Anything less that the current power/weight ratio would be Marketing Suicide 101, so my bet is the final number will be about 150-something (although I would LOVE you to be right at 170...)

Sounds like fun... except for the Detroit part.

Remember, you're replacing those part with more of the same that are just as likely to break...

My favorite Range Rover story (and the one that sums up my whole ownership experience with the brand) was when we were picking up our brand-new '00 model from the dealer. It was late evening after the dealer completed the…

"Hey, while we're out here, let's go do a drive-by of North Korea..."

Uh, no. See that pump and hydraulic reservoir front and center.

Funny... my fully loaded (3rd Gen. Limited) NC Miata weighs 2500... WITH the HARDTOP on it. A 5-speed SV is in the high 2300's without AC...

Actually, ALL work on other platforms was halted for a time to bail out the Volt when it had fallen dangerously behind schedule. A GM engineer related this story to me back when it was happening... he was reassigned for about 18 months.

If you want to do almost anything serious on your truck, you have to start be removing the entire cab from the frame. Yep. That's step one.

Wow... so many apexes missed by so many miles, and then that genius shows up.

It will be mark Fields, then Jim Farley, and by then Henry the III will be ready.

Sorry, a bit late to this, but here's your winner:

I have a few friends working on the film. Filming so far has included Colorado, Detroit, Atlanta (because hello tax breaks!) and had been going steadily since late summer. Everything shut down within about two days of Paul's death, and currently nobody is working except the writers and producers.

Exactly. This is also why "de-powering" a power steering rack is a bad idea (I'm looking at you, Miata people.)

It ran some laps in practice at Long Beach that year, but was banned before qualifying. Colin expected this, so he had shipped over the regular chassis (81's, IIRC) as well so he had something to race. Somewhere, I have pictures of the two chassis sitting side-by-side in the Convention Center garage area.

The nearest Mountain Lake that I know of is in Marquette County... I believe it's part of the Huron Mountain Club preserve.

"Velocitas Eradico"...

You can't say Tom doesn't try... his days in SCCA racing were known as "See Cruise Crash Again."
