My F250 does it .1 seconds faster than your porsche. 4.8 isn’t fast at all.

Can you tell Carl he needs to move back home to Charlotte? Thanks.
Torque doesn't pull trailers up hills, horsepower does.
I dunno why exactly this kid and his car are getting so much attention all of a sudden. My brother and I built a turbo LS1 240sx in our driveway for less than $13,000. Way less.
Splitting hairs. $31,545 for 400+ horsepower is a pretty damn good deal. Definitely close enough.
No, a centrifugal supercharger is still a supercharger. A supercharger is only a turbocharger when it is driven by a turbine, hence where the word turbocharger comes from. The method of compression is irrelevant in the name supercharger. It could be centrifugal, scroll, roots, axial, any method of compression…
There are a million articles out there explaining this.
Purpose is the same, but the execution is totally different. That's like saying that both a bow and a rifle shoot projectiles. Obviously an AR-15 isn't a longbow.
Tried to convince people of this in another post about "Top misconceptions about cars". Got argued with. Won, but other people kept disagreeing even after proven wrong. Typical internet argument.
Not to mention long guns (which is a group of gun types that includes what some people consider "assault rifles", as well as hunting rifles and shotguns) account for a vast minority of shootings in the US. Most shootings are done with pistols. Straight from the FBI: "In 2005, 75% of the 10,100 homicides committed…
You know you've spent too much at the bar in one night when your tip pushes your bartender up a tax bracket.
Mustang GT is 420hp, msrp $30,000
Went to a top fuel event in Charlotte.
They are recoilless rifles.
And there are cheaper motorcycles that happen to be quicker than this ducati.
What he's saying is that given a long enough road, the vehicle with the highest top speed always wins. This was a huge long runway, so it isn't really showing a test of acceleration as much as it is top speed. The Ducati would have easily taken the modded GTR in any conventional drag race, but the bike pretty much…
This was totally taken out of context. The entire statement was "The new corvette is no match for an RS6 at carrying 5 people and a trunkload of groceries."
Yeah, but even the 2JZ is overrated. It isn't the godlike engine everyone seems to think it is. When you actually go work on one or build one, you start to discover it has shortcomings like every other engine on the planet. There is a reason why Toyota doesn't even use it anymore.
I swear to god, the next person that compares it to a supra interior is getting a wedgie.
It's a correct assumption. If you know anything about the subject (clearly not), then you would know that the word turbo comes from the engineering study of turbomachinery.
