The Viper actually botched the start. Notice how the Viper actually trapped first, despite having a slower time? That's because the ET shown on the board is from when the car breaks the start beam to when it traps. The Viper rolled off the line about a half a second before the Vette hard launched. The Viper had a VERY…

When I was watching the C7 Z06 episode of Jay Leno's Garage, it appeared that the rear lights were actually colorless when off. Is this the case? Are the lights just always lit when the car is running, to give them red color? Thanks.

Now with two flight-worthy B-29s in the country, when will we see a B-36 restored to flight status?!

20 year old 215hp, v8 rwd manual sedan, and I got 6-10% Jalop. Yep, I think it's broke.

I don't care if I'm late for work, if the temp is below freezing, I give my car about 5 minutes to get the juices flowing before setting off. This is more important in my situation because I pull my car out of its parking spot and immediately have to get on it, hard, to ascend a steep incline for about a mile. That…

they're extremely low revving, huge-displacement turbodiesels (often with a redline at or below 2000rpm). They generate monumental amounts of torque. Also that Pete is over 40 years old. Newer ones have up to 600hp and over 2,000 ft lbs of torque available.

Yeah, that's not supersonic. Just below mach 1.

Cars don't need to be registered, and you do not need a license or insurance to own a car. These are only requirements to drive a car on public roads. You can even transport an uninsured/unregistered car ON public roads, as long as the car itself isn't being driven.

1972 Peterbilt 359.

Tell me about it.

You think the government crushes a lot of perfectly fine cars? Just imagine how many guns they melt down, just because they were used in a crime or suicide or even just sat in an old man's attic for 95 years, not having fired a shot since the Great War.

My girlfriend immediately jumps my bones when I come inside from the garage because of the way that I smell. Grease, gasoline, oil.

No engine block = staged

1 Billion gallons of water = 0.000908168583 cubic miles. That is less than one thousandth of a cubic mile. There are approximately 321,000,000 cubic miles of water in the earth's oceans (not counting rivers, groundwater, ice caps, lakes, etc).

Why can't they just add a fuel system radiator? Yeah I understand, packaging and added mass and aerodynamics difficulties. But if the fuel temperature needs to be lower for the jet to work, they NEED to have an on-board solution to the problem.

Still the most outrageously gorgeous car of the 1990s. Yeah you could buy a 2015 Mustang GT which will be just as fast as this car around a track (and be far more comfortable, get way better fuel economy, etc), but... good god, those curves.

Said up/down bias is inherent to the viewer, not to the map. If the map has no text, it is up to the viewer to orient it in whichever way they see fit.

map (n) - A visual representation of an area, whether real or imaginary.

I would argue that a satellite image or photo taken from space (without labels or added marks) qualifies as an unbiased map.
