Nice write up, Bill. I enjoyed your racer outlook and experience when talking about the suspension tuning. You gave it a lot better grade than I would for being a FWD 4 cylinder.

Congratulations. It was an interesting and, in the end, an amusing conversation. Have a Lotus rather than some silly French car.

Hellooo, indeed.

It's a great looking car and I love that blue. I think the price is insane but not because of the effort involved (it certainly cost a lot to build). I'd love to own it.

Congrats on being the first. It shouldn't be the last post, however. That is a cool cutaway.

I'm also curious about the history of the vertical stabilizer design on the SR-71. There was apparently a design change at some point? Were they flight hour limited parts and thus replaced on a somewhat regular basis? The reason I ask is that I have a rudder off of 17968 yet the airframe still exists and still has a…

When test flying a secret aircraft did you ever happen across a regular Air Force airplane and have to avoid him? Or did you plan your flights to mostly stay away from normal operating areas to begin with?

How do you involve generation neutral? START BUILDING CARS THAT ARE EXCITING, EXHILARATING AND FRESH!! Sorry for shouting but let's get this straight, all the current OEMs either build slow, ugly, cheap crap cars or they build almost exciting, fast, luxurious, expensive (but still mostly ugly) higher end cars and…

We spammed SpeedTV about how much we enjoyed the coverage when they used to cover it but I guess the ratings didn't outweigh the ratings you can get from 24/7 NASCAR programming. 'Tis a sad thing.

Good job, Ken and congratulations. Carry the flag proudly. We are cheering for you even if nobody will air WRC events on TV in America.

Maybe they'll just pull the same maneuver Source Interlink did with Hot Rod, Car Craft, and the Corvette magazines and just leave it a one man show and fill in with freelancers. It sure makes the bottom line look good for bean counters when you don't have anyone on the payroll. I haven't read a C&D or R&T for 15 years…

That is the best bookstore I've ever been in. I love the place.

The ruling in favor of the EPA is completely ridiculous and the CAFE requirements are NOT achievable without the mythical eMPG numbers that don't mean anything.

Interestingly enough the highway system has definitely changed how we live but I really think it is a mixed bag. There were a lot of small communities that were bypassed by the new highways and that hurt those towns. Yet the need for food and fuel while traveling has sprouted the truck stops and communities around…

This sounds interesting. I look forward to seeing it implemented.

Ridiculous as in ridiculously awesome? Why Cadzilla, of course. ZZtop rocks hard and does a good job of hot rodding as well.

Here are 10 reasons why a car crusher was invented. The world is better off when it is used on these.

Lulz. They need to polish that a little more (not the wagon).

I thought that driving in Rome was fun...until I drove off the map and still needed to find the autostrada. THAT took some intuitive navigation.
