The L-13 has forward-swept wings, so it’s pretty much a civilian-legal Grumman X-29.

I dunno, I’ll bet those gliders technically count as “stealthy,” especially the glass fiber ones....

Now playing

As much as I enjoy motorsports, I daresay I’d enjoy this a LOT more:

I just love the fact that so many sailplanes have pop-out spoilers in the wings specifically to dump lift when landing, otherwise they’d just float out there all damn day and overshoot the field. Now THAT is a flying machine.

Just like many (if not most) glider pilots have already done for decades, you mean?

Wait, what? Tyler’s gone?! I missed a memo!

This flood was sent by the Almighty to rectify a horrible mistake.

No s**t? If Berg brake-checked, that changes things for me. The brake-check I guess I could sort of defend given the circumstances if that were all that happened, but taking Mag all the way into the wall and then wrecking him makes it a dick move from stem to stern. Probably Berg didn’t intend for that to happen, but

WHOA, what a battle. Too bad they couldn’t have taken it all the way to the end, but talk about leaving it all out on the track. DAY-UM.

Clearly there was a presently-undetectable planetary-sized mass on the other side of that white Focus, sticking up some of the invisible universe rays and thus ‘pushing’ the Mustang into it.

Ahahaha, yes.

“I CAN’T BELIEVE THE UNIVERSE DID THIS TO ME!”

Are there DOT/NHTSA regulations about how information has to be presented to the driver? I know that things like the interface for automatic windows are standardized and regulated (i.e., the driver has to be able to control all 4 windows, and cut off the passengers’ ability to move them). Are there any regulations

He’s a former cop.

And i stopped her and told her my car has about 1/3rd of the horsepower of her explorer.

As an elitist snob from the People’s Republic of Massachusetts, my first reaction was - naturally - the legally-mandated scoffing all law-abiding Patriots fans must direct toward rural pickup truck drivers in checked flannel shirts.

Vetoed by the Marketing department, who don’t want to spend 20 hours/day explaining how to pronounce their car. They’ve heard the stories from the Pagani guys about the Huayrayoyo debut.

I like it, if for nothing else than it looks like a Veyron that just got...better. Which isn’t saying much; the Veyron is not without its charm and has proven its capabilities many times over but when stacked up against other super/hypercars from badges like Ferrari or McLaren it looks a little odd man out, like a

The really telling question is, if you’re the kind of person who drops $10k on the carbon ceramic brakes because you push your NSX to the limits, are you going to leave the $1200 floormats on the car at the track?

I’ll tell you what I always considered absolute crap: the editing of the shots of Maverick adjusting the throttle. He pushes it forward when he says he’s slowing down, and vice-versa. Just some amateur hour shit right there that pulls me RIGHT out of my suspension of disbelief, every fucking time.

Dude, there were like 4,000 articles on Jalopnik this weekend about the importance of snow tires.
