The Warthog has always had its critics and pundits, both within the Air Force and with politicians. Something this ugly has to be bad, right? Well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The A 10 does not have the svelte lines of an F16, nor does it display the latest and greatest in technology like the F22. What it

Haha. Good one!

...is too expected?

Thanks for sharing.

Most insane does not equal the best?

I know Tyler. It is very sad, but necessary. Just the same, my heart goes out to the families of the 2 that were killed.

This just after the fatal crash of an F16 and its pilot. Always so sad to hear of these types of accidents.

I actually like Kurt Busch. Yes, he has had his anger issues, but it seemed like he had reinvented himself. These past couple of years since his release from Penske Racing have shown him to be calmer and more collected. His run in 2013 with the underfunded Furniture Row Chevy was classic Kurt Busch. Sadly, he has been

Somehow the Singer Design captures the simple elegance of original 911. It is amazing to see a 911 from the late 60s or early 70s parked next to a new 911. The size difference alone is startling let alone the timeless beauty of the air cooled version. For me, the very essence and character of the 911 was lost in the

If one considers contemporary cars of the late 80s, then this car fit in perfectly. I remember reading about them in the various automotive journals and was immediately captivated by the car. The Virage had that old world, hand assembled by craftsmen look while having muscle that any American Muscle Car fan would have

What a shame. The loss of both the pilot and the plane is something that brings tears to my eyes. I am into Warbirds and when I hear of a fatal crash and think of the pilot that was killed and the plane that was destroyed, it always grieves me. What I find disturbing though is why it took so long to recover the

Rolls Royce Merlin V12:

India has quite the burgeoning navy. The INS Vikramaditya is quite a sharp looking carrier. With these upgraded Mig 29Ks, they will pose a formidable force to reckon with. I am curious as to why India is building such a strong navy. Is it to be used as a buffer against Pakistan and China, or is India interested in

For over 20 years, the climate has been very warm. However, it is starting to get cooler. Time to put the jacket on. Just hope I don't have to don a Mt. Everest parka for the frigid times like we experienced post WW2.

Greatest internal combustion sound ever. Even better than any Ferrari 12 cylinder. Better yet is the fact that it was ensconced into the most beautiful fighter ever. Is there anything more glorious than a Spitfire with its elliptical wings gracefully dancing through the clouds?

And some people wonder why people in F1 [at least the smaller teams] are crying for a cost cap. For Audi though, this money has been used wisely because it has given the brand a crowning jewel of basically owning LeMans. I have to admit that I would greatly miss seeing Audi at LeMans.

OK, I think.

I think you really wanted to reply to Tyler, not me. I merely said, "Touche Tyler" in response to him telling someone else to read before commenting. So, in all fairness, I would say the same to you. Pro tip: Read the comments carefully before replying. Nowhere did I talk about the military, either pro or con. Take

Once upon a time, F1 was for the common person like me. Tracks like Watkins Glen, Long Beach and Mosport made F1 so accessible and enjoyable. Never was a thought about not being able to bring in food or drinks. Ticket prices were in the realm of reasonable and it was easy to get close to the cars and drivers. Not
