I said this aloud before even seeing the meme. I’m with the other respondents here. Noooooooo!
The difference between the options that you’ve listed is that there isn’t a large crowd or bunch of fans encouraging that behavior. It’s done for the risk taker alone, not an audience. It’s time that we recognize the IoMTT for what it is, gladiatorial bloodsport, and end it.
You just made me wet myself.
So I’d finished my motorcycle safety class but still needed to take the written test at the DMV to get my Class M. The test was much like the boys described on Top Gear...questions so ambiguous and unscientific that one guess is as good as another. For whatever reason my younger brother and sister (13 and 16 at the…
Sosa hit one very similar, if not further. It went down Kenmore quite a ways.
Difficult for you. Not for me. Not for thousands and thousands of people who have the same type of skills as I do. It may seem like a black box, but it isn’t. Circuitboards are absolutely repairable...and replaceable. As to carbon fiber, the same people who have fiberglass skills can apply that expertise to…
It is a nonsense statement. There’s a bazillion fifty-year-old control systems that are still being maintained today. The batteries and motors are no issue at all, the *only* thing that might present some difficulty is the control system, and that can be replaced. Given a little bit of time and money I could recreate…
I was gonna find a that common picture of the bullfighter being horn-lifted by his choad but then I discovered that that photo was rather tame.
40.5k and reserve not yet met? Definitely 'Crack Pipe'.
Like I said, it’s an Apple thing. If you had an Android phone this whole time, it’d never have been an issue. Automakers have been stupid to put Apple tech directly into their electronics.
We haven’t gotten to that point yet. I don’t know any cars with fly-by-wire braking, nor do I expect any in the near future. The self-driving thing...that’s another animal.
And that ipod issue is an Apple thing, not a car thing.
OBD2 and the CAN bus have been going strong for more than 2 decades. The tape deck is mostly irrelevant imo.
If it were me I’d just replace the old cells and leave the electronics alone. I don’t see people putting DRM into car batteries specifically because it precludes people to taking it to a repair facility of their own choice. I’d think that customers would revolt against such an idea in a car purchase.
Roll your own batteries wouldn’t be technologically different at all. It’s not like you can add more electricity to it. I suppose added range...but you can’t overdrive the motors without burning them up so performance wise, little if anything would change. Maybe weight? Certainly not power output.
It may be slightly dangerous, but it wouldn’t be difficult to roll your own EV battery pack. They’re mostly made of packs of cells that you can get off alibaba.com fairly easily and cheaply. The only issue is that they’re expensive.

I love him just giggling when he does the insane mode launches. What more does one need say?
