Huh, somebody has been watching too many Marvel movies/shows!

My Dad served on a sub for 8 years. He has crazy stories to tell. He was under the Atlantic when the USS Thresher went down. Also during the Bay of Pigs. I have some serious respect for Submariners. Those guys are 500 feet below the ocean’s surface loaded to the brim with explosives (traditional and nuclear) powered…
By the way, I am now just realizing how absurd - yet amazing - of a time we live in that I nonchalantly said, “only 550HP”. And the fact that we are talking about AWD SUVs in the sub 5-second 0-60 range.
I think they thought less about the X6-M in comparison, and more about the Range Rover Sport SVR. The RRS SVR is only 550HP, and 0-60 is 4.5 seconds... That won’t sit too well with the boys from Solihull. Although the SVR *can* still go offroad. A little. Kinda.
This is not a “Road”. There are no houses out there. This is the middle of the desert. https://goo.gl/maps/iqWcN (Edit: updated map with a more accurate approx location)
It is not a public road. During the race time, it is a closed road, and thoroughly marked as such. They have race officials out at most major intersections, preventing things like this happening. But you can’t 100% prevent stupid people doing stupid things.
I’m sorry, but you do realize that the Baja 500 is ACTUALLY ~500 miles of race course, right? There is no organization on the planet that can prevent idiots from driving onto a course that size. -EDIT: And, SCORE has race officials at most major intersections to prevent this sort of thing from happening. You want to…
When will we get Kenneth Blockenstein III and BJ together for a gymkhana/recoil crossover video?
That’s without the cover.
Honda CB500X - More upright riding position, Honda reliability, enough power for fun but not too much for trouble.
I live in the middle of the freakin' desert. For me to visit the next closest metropolitan areas, I have to travel further than the German Army did when it invaded Poland in WW2. And, beyond the distance, I have to change elevation dramatically to do so.
"When you pay the best, you can afford to be picky as hell about who works for you." No. You can't. To be fired from the UAW, you pretty much have to be caught doing drugs on shift. Poor performance? Oh, that means they weren't trained properly.... The list goes on.
If it wasn't a single point store. Not dual Jag/LR.
*Full Disclosure - I worked at retailer from 2005 - 2011.
08+ is a whole different story.
For modern engines, Ford's 2.0L EcoBoost is relatively widespread:
Really looking forward to see how the Peugeot team will do this year.... but hoping that RG can pull off a podium.
Quite possible it is on loan/rented. If I recall, Ken Block took an EarthRoamer to Hanksville, UT for a week and a half on a photo shoot a few months ago. May have even been this exact vehicle.
