Racing isn’t safe, and the drivers know that.

I say make the cars even faster!

In my head, Discovery Channel’s “Street Outlaws” and “Fastest Cars Of The Dirty South” are the same show. One that I’ve never watched beyond a few minutes a couple times when I’ve been slow to change the channel. Stupid, noisy, chaotic...did I say stupid?
If a barbed-wire tattoo on a flabby white bicep were a TV show,…

The EU’s share for nuclear would likely be higher if Germany hadn’t shutdown 1/2 of their plants, but nuclear has a PR problem.  Just about anyone can rattle off the big nuke accidents, but most are oblivious to the amount of crap that’s released with coal.

This is my thinking as well. Our energy future should be everything on the table, including modern nuclear plants. The same left-wing people (and I tend to lean left on the political scale) who (rightly) decry right-wingers as anti-science should also look inward with regards to nuclear. The fact that we don’t build…

I’m a scientist and an environmentalist, and the fact that we’re not building modern reactors all over the place is absolutely mind-boggling. The alternatives suck (dams!) or require a lot of infrastructure that doesn’t exist yet (wind and solar+batteries).

I like how Europe is basically just pretending nuclear power doesn’t exist, despite the fact that nuclear power is the reason why they were able to overcome fossil fuels.

Orlove won’t mention a single word about all the illegal (and dangerous) street racing that Qualls undertook.

I fixed it for you.

I’m guessing they’ll put in the turbo v6 from the Infiniti Qwhatever redsport, which is fine, but I’d also bet that it’ll be automatic only. It’s also going to be heavy, because it’s a Z car.

You think racecar mowers are a red flag?  Just wait until she sees the shirt.

The biggest creditor once they charge them half a billion in "consulting" fees paid for with debt over the next few years.

Was it the W124 that introduced the headlight dial inherited by lots of iconic Mercedes (R129 and all the derivatives of W202/W203) which included left-sidelight and right-sidelight options...? Pull the knob out for fog lights too. The design was quite clever, although not completely intuitive. The first time I bought…

I’ve found lately that a lot of the time when companies go bankrupt it’s not because there’s anything wrong with their business model, but because there’s a bunch of corporate shenanigans going on behind the scenes that mean no matter what they do they’re screwed.

You jest, but part of me was wondering if this article was going to be about the reduced output from airplanes.  they do generate clouds (contrails) in certain conditions. 

GT2 RS: I am the lord of a coke empire with 500 yacht-harems that reside in a moat surrounding the castle on my private island

There is no “conversation”. At this point it feels like a witch hunt.

This 9-7x 5.3i is on Philly craigslist for a mere $4900.

Your Photoshop did a weird thing where it left on a bunch of extra doors. Here you go:

Let’s also not forget that the corvair engines were “Good and Weird”. The flat six air cooled engine is really fascinating in its simplicity and weird with an aluminium crank case and heads and individual iron cylinders sandwiched in between. It really is as much of a shocking and experimental departure for GM as the…
