The Hyundai g70 2.0T has a manual -  so false on that front. Many transmissions are sourced anyway. The Hyundai/Kia had a 6MT that could at least handle 295lbs of torques so the 4 pop should be easy.

Tremec, ZF, and Getrag all make perfectly capable manual transmissions for high HP RWD application.

That green in the top image is awesome.  Not awesome enough to overcome not having enough pedals, but still awesome.

They who know Robert’s rule the meeting!

Ron had this brillant plan, but he failed to account for the single biggest weakness of Republicans. It required them to do work...

Roberts Rules of Order are a superpower that so few folks know how to use.

This right here is why America is dead.

I NEVER, NEVER, NEVER get tired of RWNJ self pwnage.

After the all-night reading, Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen proposed that the debate time on Friday be shortened from 20 hours to three and because no one, not even dumbass Ron Johnson was around to contest the proposal, the bill reading slowed down nothing.

He seems to have quietly dropped the pursuit of bipartisanship by just going forward without GOP opinion, but he needs to shape up.

Democrats need to get over being afraid of the bully pulpit. Biden ran on Green Lantern Energy with saying “I can do it!” so fucking do it, no one cares about procedure

Here’s the question I have. Where does this weather event fall in regards to frequency? Is this a once every 50 years, 100 years, 500 years, etc.. event? What were the design criteria for the power grid, 50, 100, 500 or more? If the grid is designed for a 100 year event and this was a 500 year event, the most cost…

Yep - I swung between the extremes in my youth - the naïve undergrad who though communism was clearly the answer to the ills of the world to the jaded slightly older naive undergrad who though that libertarianism and FREEDOM! (tm) provided all the answers.

Thats not capitalism. Its corporatism.

Don’t forget- there was a small group of people that got enormously wealthy off this model- while the average person probably saved a couple dollars a year. These people will walk away scot-free.  They should lose all the money they’ve made in the past 10 years during the time they should have made improvements.

The funny thing about good meaning libertarians (having been one in my youth and distinctly different than the ones selling liberatianism to the masses for personal gain) is the constant doubling down even when evidence is presented that a system of completely open markets doesn’t work. When removing/lack of…

Still without power and yet, here you are instead of fleeing to Cancun. Good on you!

Careful son, there are places in Texas where such talk of regulations being good will get you shot

Neutral: This week sucked. I didn’t have power for the past four days. I was fairly prepared, but there still wasn’t much we could do to help anyone else.

“Am I a joke to you?”
