When autonomous cars eventually become sentient, I’d rather they not be armed with lasers.

Anyone else think parking a Porsche that close to water without any sort of curb is Risky Business?

Yea, sorry for the misprint. Got excited!

it’s on the FIAT USA site, so I’d expect so.

I had to scroll WAY to far to find this

Miata is always the answer. I don’t care what the EPA estimates are, anyone who has driven one of these machines extensively will tell you that the amount of fuel you use relative to the amount of time you spend at 5k rpm is shockingly small.

I see Northrup is following the Porsche design philosophy: why fix when it ain’t broken.

My old home track (also was the longstanding track for the AutoX nationals) had an increasing radius going onto the straight. Now, normally that is a good thing, but in this case the straight was the dragstrip and at the end of the corner there was a transition from the concrete to the asphalt.

Holy shit. I’m a dumbass. Thanks for correcting me. No one can make themselves look as stupid as ourselves.

Correct as usual. The rally’s themselves are sponsored and as a stipulation many of them dictate that all cars entered in the rally wear sponsor decals for the duration of the event. The owners don’t want to put the stickers on necessarily, it’s just a stipulation of the event.

Doh. Yes. I meant GT4. GTS will have the flat four tuned to 370ish.

I’m going back to the sloth story

This could pretty much go for any vehicle that has held a land speed record in the last 50 years, along with a lot of professional bonneville teams.

I agree. This type of mods should be banned for two reasons:

It’s a bit like if I was to open a restaurant that you can only pay through an app. I would sell booze the same price as in liquor store and wouldn’t pay the alcohol permit other restaurants are forced to pay.

Gotcha. In that case, you know you have to go completely old school and have a backseat Pong championship to see who wins control of the whirly-wheel.
