"Well, 3 of your tires are slipping, but 1 has traction then 4WD would help stopping."

Ummm...it is. Not currently, new, but they are available in the US.

Both my wife and I would freakin' LOVE a new Kitchen! If I were to bust ass and have sneak a in a brand new Kitchen while she was away then I know my presence would be graced by a very appreciative wife. Likewise if she were to do the same I would be enthralled! More so, we could do it together and it would be tons…

Yup! Heated cloth is/was not uncommon in Swedish cars.

I recall Ringo narrating when I watched it as a kid in the US...and I think you got that description spot-on! I can't imagine it any other way.

Oh God. Kill it with fire!

Typically their jacks have a 1 year warranty and I've had two fail on me (just about literally, though jack stands were in use) just outside of a year.

Harbor freight has recently been a godsend for me, but for reasons I'd rather not run into again.

A caliper, I suppose (???)

Nope, it was a V10. I've fondled one for several hours trying to reconnect a wastegate (or VGT ?) actuator arm on the driver's side turbo. It is certainly a V10, with two banks of 5 in a standard V configuration. Yum!

I gained an incredible amount of respect for NASCAR drivers (not necessarily the fans, per say) after having driven at a much lower speed on an oval speedway. Imagining that experience in a RWD car with many, many times the amount of power made me rethink the idea that those guys just plant their foot and turn left.

My commute might as well be work. 14 miles and typically 35-45 minutes each way. The traffic just crawls along. It is a 4 lane highway with very short entry/exit ramps and people merging at 15-20 mph seem to cause the backups to start, and once they start they'll be backed up for hours.

I don't know what I was doing last weekend, but it felt as much like racing as the two Chump events I partook in. Given, there were more slow going "rolling road block" cars out there, but there were many fast, competent drivers, and there was a lot of racing. And for the most part is was good, clean racing.

Amateur hour!

It didn't look terribly unstable on the track. I was more frightened by the behavior of the drivers of some normal looking cars than I was of this stair car.

At least Lemons doesn't hand out "butt hurt" laps to teams who, by whatever misfortune, have sustained damage deemed to be unfortunate or not their fault. That's the sort of thing that comes with the territory of wheel to wheel racing...the fact that they have done that should be embarrassing.

I was racing last weekend, and I had a grin on my face every time I came around a corner and saw this thing lumbering along, rolling and pitching from side to side through every corner (it really didn't appear to pitch anywhere near what I had expected).

The standard transmissions in the SRT8 Challenger is a 6 speed manual (same as the R/T and the . I'm not sure where the confusion is that they aren't available to row your own...but they are. Maybe they are harder to find at the dealers in that configuration, but the manual is the standard transmission, while the…

If a person thinks having fun while driving and manual transmission are always mutually exclusive then they probably don't partake in much serious driving. Fun driving for me certainly not limited to rowing my own gears. Given, many people probably don't get much actual track time or wheel to wheel racing, but I can…

I'd shoot myself in the face with a chainsaw gun before riding a brakeless fixie. I've ridden my road bike to work plenty of times. It is nice, relaxing etc. It isn't always possible with MN weather, that and we don't have the facilities to freshen up after a ride and change into the "professional attire" that I…
