And, also like Bugattis, many peregrine falcons are owned by wealthy Arabs and rarely reach that speed in the wild.

Funny little anecdote, partly true, partly urban motorcycle legend:

Yeah I was obsessed with Falcons starting in 4rd grade because of a book in our library.

Here’s a video of one absolutely wrecking a duck. The speed is incredible.

were you like... never a kid? i’m pretty sure every kid is legally required to know the fastest bird on the planet.

Wait, so your telling me that it IS possible not to use all the throttle all the time....?

I still think it’s ugly

That little Jeep is a scrapper like its owner. :) Seriously, when you talked into the camera once the engine ran with the new timing gear, you reminded me of an excited puppy!

I want to concur with the poster saying they’ve been checking your twitter constantly. At this point, it’s the first suggestion coming up on…

Not gonna lie, I thought this was photoshopped at first glance (it isn’t, is it?). That deserves a picture frame. Beautiful.

I don’t know of anybody who went through as much as you did with a vehicle, David. Your persistence certainly paid off. You deserve to have some fun now.

I remember when Jalopnik also HATED Tesla. I bought a bunch of Tesla stock then. The Jalopnik commentariat has a pretty poor record on predicting the future.

A blog contributor surely knows better than the millionaire and billionaire VCs funding Uber though, right?

Some people get a bang out of vaping.

There is difference between track and touge.

I’m going to say it, the thing that people dare not speak. “The ToTD is not The Nurburgring. It is not and should not be used as, a race course or taken as a personal challenge to see how fast you can drive it”

I hope his insurance uses this video to deny his insurance claim.

Of course there was debris on the road, it’s the fucking tail. There is sand and gravel on the inside and outside of every corner, random branches fall into the road, pieces from some other idiots wreck, and that’s not even mentioning the other idiots who will be driving too fast and lane cutting.

Idk, when I can pull 25mpg from the Hellcat I had for a couple weeks, I’m ok with their V8s.

Chrysler is sort of like that one person that’s “really successful” in the mobile home park. Yeah, they don’t do as well as anyone who has a house that doesn’t come with a trailer hitch (GM, Ford, Toyota, Mazda, VW, BMW, etc), but by God, they make just enough to stay off Food Stamps and their electricity doesn’t come…

The Giorgio platform from the new Giulia and Stelvio would be an excellent starting point for a whole range of world-class compact and mid-sized US cars.
