I am so firmly on Team Whale. I remember roughly 25 years ago, a cruise ship hit a fin whale and dragged it into Vancouver harbour. Nobody noticed until the dockworkers were securing the mooring ropes. 

This comment does not have nearly enough stars. 

I realise this is totally not the point, but this chucklefuck needs to learn how to wear a polo shirt. Who the fuck folds down the inner part of the collar?

Let’s also add Shirley Muldowney, Brittany and Courtney Force, John Force, and Don Prudhome. Drag racing is racing. 

Yep.

This is clickbait.

I responded to another comment somewhere in this thread. If you have proximity to a technical school, polytech or a similar institution that has an engineering technologies focus, they may be able to run you something in their rapid prototyping lab.

“...creating a more dangerous world for his own children...”

Lauda? Fangio? Miles?

There is a complexity to cars today, that wasn’t apparent when we were kids.

I have to include the Mercedes 300SLR Uhlenhaut Coupe. It was built as a racecar; intended for the Carrera Panemerica. It never got to actually race because of the 1955 Le Mans disaster. It sure was pretty thought.

No Target here (Canada). But yeah, swap in “the mall".

To that end... hit up your local college or the closest learning institution that does engineering tech work. Our local polytech (too far from you I’m afraid), has a rapid prototyping lab. They take on all kinds of projects from individuals, companies, and industry, for their students to work on. Some car-nerd in the

WRT the headlight lenses... Could you remove the lenses and then have new ones vacu-formed, using the old ones as moulds? 

What you want and what Porsche wants, are two completely different things.

All yummy mummies have $150,000 Escalades and Range Rovers that are exclusively used to A) drop the kids at school, and B) go to yoga and Starbucks. 

I honestly can’t tell if this is satire. 

I’m thinking of the Youtube video I watched showing how to replace the magentron in a microwave oven. You can do this yourself if you have a good video to watch. The problem was that the video I watched neglected to tell the viewer how to discharge the high-voltage capacitor. Do it wrong, and you’ll fry yourself. 

It’s a subset of the Youtube Expert phenomenon. You can use Youtube to do all sorts of things, instead of paying an expert. But, there are some things that you shouldn’t do by yourself, even if Youtube is teaching you.

I am serious. And don’t call me Shirley.
