Why does one model (Hummer H3) get recalled and other models (Canyon) not for what appears to be the same problem? I believe two factors. Factor 1: The H3 is not a current production model and GM does not really care if it is recalled. The Canyon mid-sized truck line is current model for GM so they do not want their…

Regardless of what happens, Iran suddenly becomes a peaceful nuclear neighbor or starts supplying fissionable materials for bombs to anyone, to think there will be peace in the Middle East is laughable. They’ve all been at war with each other or someone else since the dawn of time and there is simply no incentive to…

Good. No more reason to keep ESPN in my channel favs. About the only thing they show anymore is soul-sucking talk shows about baseball data and outrageous shock jocks pretending to be journalists.

To be honest Ralf, I was being tongue in cheek. I do not blame the drivers in F1 for its current state, that is on management. The drivers and teams are simply availing themselves of every possible avenue to improve performance. But often they are their own worst enemies, when the teams are in constant save fuel mode…

Happy to oblige.

It’s not his fault, his engineer didn’t read it to him over the phone while in transit to the matches. These guys cannot make it through a race without having their hand held, do you honestly think they do something as difficult as dressing themselves without expert assistance?

The most interesting thing about the Cube is when you saw a white one you immediately thought a refrigerator must have fallen off a truck and its door came open. I always looked for the little area on the body of the white ones where you store the eggs.

Movies like this, like Transformers and many other action based blockbusters are simply dumbed down to appeal to the lowest common denominator. Don’t get me wrong, I like an action movie, I have no problem suspending disbelief in the effort to enjoy a movie, but these movies are just like every slasher pic. Made to…

Planet doesn’t need fixing, the people living here do.

Your headshot is way distorted and the horizon on your shot with the canal is curled at both edges. .

I’d love to own a Leica, but being a portrait photographer for fashion/commercial its far too expensive and limiting with that lens. Lots of distortion there. Of course that’s not the market its aimed at. but that’s really big money for a street shooter too.

I think this entire project was simply window dressing and a publicity stunt. The bike goes against everything that HD stands for and what they are built upon. Big, loud, overweight cruisers with tons of options and chrome accessories is what their client base wants. You cannot take this bike in downtown or under that…

You see the obvious differences in the refinement of the LaFerrari over the One:1. The Ferrari is wickedly fast and super smooth where the One:1 is about brute force and head snapping shifts. The Ferrari is more eargasm than the One:1 but they are very different beasts.

Having built and tuned drag racing engines with MFI, simplicity is often the driving force when racing. A multi-stage MFI system for wide open throttle applications like drag racing are super easy to tune and keep running right. The carb application in desert racing is also simplicity to keep running right and fail…

Just another Sunday drive for a true master. Another legend that survives today, like Sir Stirling Moss, and truly loves doing what he always did best. The stories he could tell.

The 355 is certainly pretty, but I might say the F12 Berlinetta is prettier and sounds more than magnificent. Somehting about those V12s and the classic front engine coupe design.

You are right. But I don’t even glamorize those days either. Even that race where Senna crushed everyone in the rain at Donington in pretty much a single lap. And I am not asking for taking away the wings and adding big tires and all that rubbish. What I see is a lot more passing in the lesser formulae and other forms…

Its kind of funny how critical mistakes occur like this when a team is leading. Orders get second guessed, tensions run high and incorrect decisions are made. It happened often to MacLaren when they were dominating the championship, same with Williams and Ferrari when they were on top. Maybe it just gets magnified…

I see a few parallels to another guy, but 50 years ago... Jim Hall and his Chapparel racing team that brought a lot of ideas and modernization to CanAm and sports car racing.

WRC in the US is a self fulfilling prophecy. No one watches because its not on TV, and its not on TV because it was on a crappy channel with limited subscription.
