Terrible loss. My thoughts are with him and his family.

I understand that much. I’ve built a few engines, although obviously not to anywhere near the same degree.

MotoGP?

Why does nobody else seem to have as many issues?

Honda has had a pretty good record for “reliable engines.” If everyone’s engines were failing as often — which they may be and my opinion is just skewed by…

Honda is known for reliability and quality engines, why is this not the case in these motorsports?

Holy... Looks like he maybe slipped trying to change sides?

Glad he’s OK.

Never heard it, but always been a huge Cornell fan. That voice...

Getaway Car sent shivers down my spine.

Been in the middle east for the last four years so they’ve been relaxing in the garage. Now I cruise Iraq in a weird Nissan van or Toyota Hilux at a max speed of 40kph enforced by Danish MPs.

Del Sol - hydroplaned and hit a utility-pole guidewire just off the side of the road
CRX - Two dump trucks pulled out from side-road onto 65mph highway, from the left, and stayed in the left lane. As I was about even with the rear bumper of the leading dump truck, it decided to move into the right lane. There was not…

1) Had a 1993 (?) Del Sol S. The S meant Slow. Totaled.
2) Had a 1991 CRX Si with D16Y8 swap. Got a great deal on it because “it didn’t run right.” That night I burned a D16Y8 fuel map and it ran perfectly. More fun. Totaled.
3) Have a 1990 CRX Si with built/boosted LS-VTEC swap. Extreme fun. No traction. Sitting in my…

Experience a nice UAE summer and you will want one, too.

Came here to say this. Need-to-know is as important of the classification. You need both.

I like the Bolt. I want it to succeed, along with the Leaf and any other electric vehicle. It’s what will push the electric infrastructure and options.

But, I’ll likely buy a Tesla. I expect the Tesla to have more issues and difficulty getting serviced, but I want to put my money to the company that’s pushing…

Yup. I’ve been working in the sandbox across the world the last few years, but I call Huntsville my home.

Is Tesla overvalued? Probably.
Does Tesla receive unwarranted hype? Probably.

A lot of media fawns over everything he says. A lot of media reflects your comment. People seem to have strong feelings one way or the other.

When I saw the 500,000 figure, I didn’t believe it. I immediately chalked it up to being a goal that…

I’m confident you’re trolling, because many are actually plentiful.

I disagree.

Not that he might be condescending or patronizing, but that he’s “hurting the cause.” I grew up in a very “christian conservative right-wing” part of the country — the type that tends to believe politicians and entertainers over science. Years ago, I may have agreed that it won’t help the cause, but I’ve…

Been there with my S2000 ;)

Tesla is making boats now.

Emirates and Qatar have both been great for me. I honestly haven’t had a bad experience airline, but generally the planes are nicer, staff are kinder, and the experience is overall better on the two. I guess oil money and tourism/hospitality/excess being a priority helps.

ALSO:

We have very different views of North Korean technology, apparently. We also have different views of US “cutting corners” when it comes to defense. My view of NK tech is based on documentaries, news, video, and their lack of internet connectivity or the ability to buy a majority of western technology. My view of US…
