Have you been to six flags NJ or Cedar point and rode Kingda Ka or the Dragster? If you have, imagine how fucking fun the linear acceleration at the beginning is, then imagine having full control over it and being able to do it over and over.

Why does that bother you?

That article is about someone who drove through a pot hole and has a suspension component break.

Can electric motors handle the every day onslaught of dirt roads?

Fun fact, almost all auto mfgs suck at infotainment. When I worked at Toyota, I contemplated emailing the head engineer of infotainment systems and demand he commit seppuku. Toyotas system such so, so much.

Serious: has anyone had luck getting a good deal on a GTI yet? Or are dealers still sticking to their guns?

Same thing happened to me :/

I just want a miata with a bunch of torque... so if I get a 124 abarth, add a tune and aftermarket dampers, then I will have what I want?? I can add in a more oversteery nature like the Miata with an alignment change, right?

Came here to say this. I did motorsports wiring, we didn’t solder. It’s strong, sure, buy way too brittle. High quality crimps with a correct tool and raychem heatsink is the only true way to go.

I just flew into Sac for the first time the other day, damn it was awesome. Terminal looked brand new, busses were brand new, no TSA line, nothing crowded... I wish LAX was like that haha. Ha... :(

Totally... My student loan payment would just about cover a Corvette payment... And I will be paying that amount for 15 years. No Corvette for me :(.

Finally, someone who explained turbocharger lag fairly well...

As others have said, a planes autopilot will fly you straight into a mountain. What Tesla does is actually exactly like a plane autopilot, which needs a pilot in the seat and can only work once in the air. I think the name is very valid.

That’s exactly what it already does if it knows the speed limit.

So they said he might now have know he was even being chased?? Did the cop have his lights on? Did he ID himself over a loudspeaker??

Looks like the owners make out pretty good, no? Knew I should have picked up a TDI...

This brings back one of my biggest mistakes that I still kick myself for back in my Pitt FSAE days that could have easily been avoided and cost us many spots in michigan (and happened right near the end of the comp).

Thanks for that!

Thanks for that!

Me too my man. So far so good...

Extra gear was awesome through (except for the stupid how we made a track part that included no real details or a good video of a run through with the stig).
