I was just making a joke about the stock photo used at the top of this article (which, btw, is very misleading). No ridicule against the students in the linked article intended.

They might be forced to shut production for half a year or even a full year to retool for aluminum body. This isn't as bad as it sounds, because it will just build up demand for the new one even more.

This is absolutely disgusting. The school is being irresponsible and encouraging dangerous behavior.

In most states you can retain a fully functional main cannon, with a $200 tax stamp paid to the BATF for a "Destructive Device," as defined in the 1968 Gun Control Act which modified the 1934 National Firearms Act to include rifled cartridge based firearms with a bore of over 0.50", defining them as DDs.

Everyone outside of the United States calls them silencers, and so did the inventor, Hiram Maxim.

I nominate the C5 Corvette. Rated for 181mph bone stock.

I don't get it, the car has more character now. Wasn't its fault. By getting rid of it, they're just instilling an irrational fear of an inanimate object. The poor kid might never willingly crawl under a car again.

I feel compelled to recommend the Knipex Pliers Wrench and Cobra pliers to all homeowners with a DIY attitude. I originally got them for automotive work, but I've found that they are absolutely indispensible for plumbing jobs in an older house. The Pliers Wrench lets you loosen and tighten polished collar nuts without…

And the engine was still idling smoothly, upside down, after that epic violence. Impressive.

Timing belts & chains are so pedestrian. REAL cars use gear driven timing.

They should make the body panels out of PLASTIC. No I'm not joking. It would be even cheaper and potentially lighter than aluminum, would never rust, and would be much more resistant to dents and dings. It would be a winning material for a hardcore off road vehicle IMO. But they would HAVE to keep the full frame and…

Why yes, it is a goddamn Chrysler Turbine Car!

The detail of some of the new Hot Wheels castings is absolutely phenomenal.

large boulders work just as well, they're just a bit more cumbersome to move into position.

Does the truck have a full floating rear axle?

Yep, as soon as I saw the tiny little clearing and that the crowd was on the same level ground as the truck, I knew this was a disaster waiting to happen.

There are none on ebay right now, but my suggestion is 1984 BMW 318i (e30).

I'm positively astounded that it took almost a week just to find a 36mm socket, in NYC. You guys don't have a harbor freight?

I always show up to a craigslist transaction meet with two or three friends, or a sidearm, or preferably both. There are some really opportunistic scumbags out there, be careful.
