No - deaths per 100 million miles traveled isn’t even remotely close to the same now as it was in the 70's - it’s roughly 1/3rd of that amount.

At 27%, deaths due to rollovers in 1978 = 13,589 deaths
At 29%, deaths due to rollovers in 2018 = 10,602 deaths.
So, there were 3,000 fewer deaths, in a time when there are over twice as many miles driven per year (1.5T per year in 1978 vs 3.2T per year in 2018).
And, assuming the 70% figure holds true for 2018, that…
Lexus SC300 with a manual - 2JZ all the things!
*Narrator*
I fared far better in my Jeep accident than my older brother Denny. Four months had passed, but my parents still hadn’t been able to put the pieces back together again.
I never had any heroes later on like the ones I had when he was 18. Jesus, does anybody?
He then celebrated the victory with Tweeter from the west side and was last seen naked with two girls in the back of a stolen Sheriff’s cruiser.
I really with they had showed this to BMW engineers before they made my e46 M3.
For those questioning the $20k price tag on the fuel tank ...
“Heggemann aerospace also manufactures Veyron’s fuel tank which took almost 4 years from design to actual model. It took that long as Veyron fuel tank needs to pump fuel 8 times more faster than normal fuel tank (and with constant pressure up to 1.4G). It…
I would also add - if you can live with the interior and feeling like you’re in a coffin, for a track toy, a used Z/28 is a helluva track day bargain @ $40k
Great track toy that, surprisingly enough not many people have? Viper GTS.
The clip had been taken off/put back so many times that it apparently didn’t want to stay in the down position - so it came up, then the pin worked itself out.
Old HPDE/DD.
Again.
Race car in current form .
I’ve actually owned two - a Boston Green coupe that was a DD/HPDE car, and a sedan that is now my race car. As a DD (being driven in the mid-2000s), it was ok. It was quick enough and it handled extremely well, but the interior did not hold up well and the a/c was awful here in TX in the summer. And - yes - the…
I still can’t believe no one has brought up the fact that she’s a møøse killer.
Well it may be heresy to some, but I will go down swinging with the belief that while the s62 is amazing, it is not THE most legendary V8 produced by BMW - that will go down as the s65. Yes, they both have their issues (timing chain guides on the s62, rod bearings on the s65, etc.), but having driven or owned pretty…
Given the location of the damage (roof, rear), and that it’s in TX, I’m going to go with hail. But yea, noooope, not with everything else they’re not allowing to possibly be discovered.
Wasn’t “Foreign Parts” already a feature-length documentary about Willets Point?
Noooo - not a Type-S!!!! Please say it wasn’t a manual too ...
