Personally if I was driving my car down there I would be annoyed because I was delayed but not scared/concerned. If they hit my car insurance covers it, they have too little mass to do much damage unless they are over 150MPH and get a lucky direct strike, and it's a funny/insane highlight for a probably boring week.

That's absurd. If I were with Morgan I would be laughing that my LMP2 driver is faster than their LMP1 and requesting an explanation why he was so far out classed it was slowing down other drivers. Just because you run off and build/buy a car to spec for class x, doesn't mean you are qualified to be in the series…

There are a lot of flaws in your logic as well though. The primary flaw is that the reason it's at issue is that GM didn't actually have that money to spend and did so utilizing massive debt to Feds. Compound that with the announcement that they are canceling most of their hybrid lines for the coming releases and you…

Impractical? I don't have anything like that Ferrari, but I would live to park my cars and bikes in my house. I don't really think practicality is a factor here.

The MX-5 is a good little car, but I never understood the fanaticism behind them. In autocross they are great fun and very competitive, yes, but so are many other cars. That said, I have never purchased one. I have driven plenty, but there have always been more interesting/better cars for me to own. I have had two…

Wow, that article was written by someone with no large picture analysis and all opinion based bias. Why wouldn't you apply this same logic to almost every other technology from electricity to automobiles?

Since when is it news that the SCCA made some stupid rule? The SCCA has so many rules that make little to no sense you could do a full series of posts about them. This must just be the first time it's come back to bite the Mustang guys.

What if it had been mailed to a kid? My guess would be nothing unless they mailed them ammunition with it. Not many 8 year olds are going to be packing around extra .308 ammunition in their pocket hoping for a shipping error.

This is all a little misleading. First, many of the "safes" they are talking about are more or less just locked storage containers and not really safes. I know that it can be argued that the marketing person behind the packaging called them a safe, but it really isn't the case. Second, they were not installed…

Every time something happens where a crazy person hurts/kills people with a firearm, all the lemmings clamor for more laws. The guy doing the killing already broke so many laws he lost count. What next, after that doesn't work you make it illegal to be crazy? It's already illegal to be crazy with a gun, illegal to…

I think that's something I could get behind off-shoring.

I have been asking myself this same question ever since I placed an order for one. My bad weather/need a trunk vehicle is an S2000 and while not as bad, suffered the same short comings. They built a great chassis and suspension, but skimped a bit on the power. In the S2000 it's forgivable as the goal was very…

Oh how great it is to write a huge long comment and have the new account system freak out and hide/lose/duplicate it.

I guess all of you have never moved appliances in your lives? The last time I upgraded the appliances and had to move the monster fridge my self and I used a methods like this (minus the rope). Most people, left to fend for themselves, will attempt something like this through logical process. It actually works BETTER…

The real problem is people are cheap and lazy. My development box at home has 5 fans an is virtually silent running an 8 core AMD at 4.4ghz+ over clock, 16GB DDR3@1866, and 2 crossfire 6950's OC'd to 6990 specs. It's a matter of ensuring you follow proper cooling principals and buy quality fans. Keep positive case…

I completely call BS on that account. What was this car that was unable to stop it's self with both front and rear brakes applied that had functional brakes to begin with? Even my race cars can stop with the throttle stuck open before we upgrade the brakes. The e-brake only applies rear brakes (assuming it's not a…

The only way to have an end to wars and global peace is by forfeiting all freewill. While freewill exists people may choose to kill each other at any point. All great aspects of life come with a price and to make life truly safe one must make it not worth living.

I'm not quite sure why running into the car repeatedly was a good idea, (while also hitting the car next to him) but just smashing it's window and taking the hand brake off/putting in neutral was unacceptable...

Yeah, my business and personal both seem to be fine. I never even noticed a hiccup while working on them.

That's exactly what I thought. This is such mindless BS fear mongering. Also, who cares what % of revenue the fine was? Last time I checked most penalties imposed in the US are not based on percentages of revenue but a calculated amount against damages. In this case the actual damages were $0, so they calculated a…
