You seem quite confused. In order to qualify as made of wood, some or all of the critical structural components need to be wood, which they are in the wood specific cars. The car you chose to show a picture of is a mostly aluminum car, but that is a poor representation of what they still offer. As in the picture

I have and still would (whenever it gets back together). I daily drove a 60's Oldsmobile when I was in high school, a 1970 240Z autocross car, and my new car is a 1973 240Z that I am building up.

What's wrong with people. You need to do a little research or actually watch the video before commenting. They clearly state that both cars are made side by side. They still make wood frame cars AND aluminum frame cars.

The "same" car? No, but different configurations of the same make/model, sure. I really want another 240Z with an naturally aspirated L30 race motor to go with my SR20DET swapped 240Z. It's fun driving cars that are essentially the same, just built for different purposes. I would even like to try to make an LS7

My car is $0 a month, has had 0 gallons of gas purchased for it the last several months, and cost $0 in electricity. Isn't it amazing how useless numbers are when applied without context?

I understand your point, but you are acting as though this doesn't already happen. The government already undermines the private sector by paying people absurd wages with benefits for basic work. Do you think they currently higher private sector companies to handle the work? You realize they already have a Department

Even in stock form and not being designed to drag race well, with sticky tires I was able to pull an S2000 into the 13's. Yes, they only have 240HP, but they also don't weigh much and have unrestricted RWD. Typically I could run with Mustang GT's and the like. Boosted I could probably coax 400WHP from it pretty

Crack pipe on this one unless you are looking to break into the drag racing scene. This engine life will be measured in hours, the chassis will need to be evaluated constantly, and you will need to keep a garage full of spare parts for when it brakes things.

It was Cali, so pretty much the same thing.

That's exactly why we need to start mandatory training and retesting. They only get worse the longer they are on the road without training.

That's why I had suggested on the other article a tiered system with real world training. The bicycle and automobile training needs to be more like the basic rider safety training for motorcycles. Actually teach people how to use their vehicle, teach them how to avoid collisions regardless of who is at fault, and

The only Honda I have ever owned was an S2000, but that might be too new for someone of your particular orientation.

That's not true. Your not accounting for sample sizes and metrics. For you have to correlate all the data to per 10,000 on the road, then account for average distance traveled. The percentages are highest in bicycles and motorcycles by a large margin, then taper on down to the lowest on the end of commercial vehicles

You are a driver technically. On a bicycle you are exactly the same as a car from the regulation stand point. That's why most states with large numbers of bicycles are really evaluating more strict regulations and possible licensing as too many do not understand the laws and that they are actually able to be ticketed.

Feel free to move up here, but please leave the poor logic processes and insanity that ruined your state at home. We are already sliding down hill fast enough due to all the other people trying to make Oregon more like California (as if that's a good thing). It's like the freebie seeking locusts of Cali are already

Ha! I would rather not ride anywhere in that state. I had to bring my motorcycle through there a year or so ago after a 1200 mile + ride and I had seen plenty. Most of California is headed the way of Detroit. It's like they dumped all the money into stupid systems and government projects and have nothing left for

You, as a cyclist, are a part of that "bad drivers" category. That's why we need to improve the education of both drivers and riders, and enforce laws much more harshly while removing the "what if" enforcement. Stop just working speed traps and start actually focusing on safety issues.

Irrelevant.

I completely agree. I think driver safety should be an education system that is all through grade school and high school. I also think EVERYTHING on the public road way should be subject to a basic drivers license (since everything is following the same rules). Then from there you can test up to bigger vehicles or

I'm all for that actually. I think bikes should be primarily pedestrians, sticking to sidewalks/bike lanes whenever possible. I'm down here in Oregon and we can't do that. It causes more problems them it solves being stuck mixed in with cars. The cars may not be trying to hit me, but it sure feels like it when there
