It's the same F1 that he's crashed, and subsequently repaired, twice. He crashed it twice because he drives it all the time, on racetracks, near its limit. Worst is not a word associated with Rowan Atkinson's car ownership.

I'm in the process of changing all my light bulbs to LED. Lowes has OSRAM LED bulbs for $4-$5 per bulb. This afternoon I plan on running the numbers to see what my ROI will be on them.

Battery chargers?

It's so stupid to not use weather appropriate tires. I get that they're expensive, but come on, it's your safety and the safety of those around you, including your own passengers.

That's the one key difference — the Pilot makes AWD possible by lifting the body, where most vans "wrap" the body down around the suspension and drivetrain. Between the underfloor spare tires and floor-folding rear seats, AWD has no space. The Sienna is the only optional AWD van and I can't say I've ever seen one...

In general vans are less safe, fact. That being said, I think minivans are a menace to society and they're easily the worst drivers on the road on average. Why? Distracted parents attending to kids, distracted parents in a rush to pick up kids, drunk soccer moms/drunk ballet dads, overly cautious parents, the list…

RCR should do a kickstarter to fund the speed wars documentary. I would love to see them do it!

Mazda RX-3SP OPPO FLAMES. FTW!

I'd like to see what happened to cause Bianchi to go off track. It was double yellows at this point in the race, meaning marshalls and equipment are on the track and the drivers should be prepared to stop. For him to have hit the tractor this fast (hundreds of feet off the track no less) something major must have…

A normal Ninja 1000 ABS Sport weighs 502 lbs. Assuming this thing has similar poundage (adding the supercharger, but probably subtracting a few pounds with carbon pieces and other weight-saving solutions), that's a power to weight ratio of 1.67 pounds per horsepower, or 1,200 hp/ton.

Quote :"Why can people drive down from Canada on vacation, on the same US roads that US citizens use, in cars that aren't sold here and haven't been through the same testing standards, yet we're denied the option of importing those same cars ourselves?"

That's how it works. Now though, here's the car pre-rebuild. Decide for yourself what's cosmetic or not: http://imgur.com/a/Q4HHO

You're right, the ND might be light enough to not even NEED it..... but think of the core market. You wouldn't sell a lot of Corvettes without power steering to a 60yo men, would you?

Hydraulic steering. I just drove the new 2015 WRX STI, which has hydraulic steering, unlike the WRX's new electric rack. Everything is going electric these days in the name of efficiency, but to me even the best electric racks don't replicate the feel of a good hydraulic system. But I know this one's unlikely.

Here ya go, mate!

Except it's not a better camera. The 41Mp number is a gimmick. The lens on that thing is far too small to resolve that much detail, so the output jpeg has loads of smeared pixels caused by lens imperfections. Also a lot of noise, and a tendency to blow out highlights (both caused by having too-manny-too-small pixels).…
