Top Gun has been my favorite movie for years now. I remember me and my brother watching it damn near every day when we were younger, fast forwarding through all the mushy love scenes to get to the sweet action scenes (keep in mind, we were around 6 and 9 respectively).

#6 man. Should be higher.

The test driver in this video. 24 years old, and he gets to flog Koenigseggs for a living.

In my experience, the Parts counter clerks tend to actually be morons. They're well intentioned, sure, but usually when I walk into a parts store, I know what I need, and I don't need their .02.

Man I love me some Alfa Montreal. Thanks for this.

Yea. That's why I didn't strip the whole carb down. Plus I found a pdf online that pretty nicely detailed what could be taken off the carb and how.

After.

I was driving through the Bay Area last weekend and many times I was tempted to hop over into the carpool lane. I never did, but I saw a great number of solo drivers that did. I'm sure they'll eventually get what's coming to them.

Nope, it's because a nickel would be 5 times harder to weld in there.

Is it really stuck? I mean, cant you just back it down the same way you came? It doesn't seem like there are any turns to get to that point.

Not unless you chop em up real good!

Autotempest is very useful for searching a few sites at the same time. It gives you Craigslist, Ebay, Cars, Autotrader, and a couple other sites to look at all in one place. Pretty convenient.

What's worse than clubbing a baby seal?

And you don't think you'd get laid driving around a Bugatti Veyron? Just sayin'

I was just driving back from Lake Berryessa in Northern California to San Luis Obispo. We'd had a long day on the lake, we were all tired, and it was late at night.

Nope we've got all the seals and springs in their right places.

Sure, there's nothing really out of the ordinary about my LeMons car build, and specifically, the engine rebuild we've been doing.

My parents wont allow it. Neither will my girlfriend. Something about not wanting me to die. Trust me, if it were up to me I'd be riding one, and I'd try my hardest to be careful, but sometime, if you're riding for long enough, you'll get into an accident either big or small.

In all seriousness though, this is remarkable. I work on my colleges Formula team, and this is inspiring, among many things. Also reaffirms my, albeit, optimistic career goal of being an engineer for a F1, or any racing team.
