other sites are reporting both the Spyder and Speedster went on a diet as well as get tuned up suspension (and possibly more power)

Im so glad Mazda seems to get the Lotus ethos!

why not build all new airframes based on the old design and incorperating all the tech advances that you mentioned?

from a design perspective, as i stated previously, im not sure there is really anything we could possibly improve on. the design itself is already as survivable as can be, incorperating advanced composite…

see ive been pondering that one, and while there always room for improvement im not sure anything we build new would be such a radical departure from the basic design of the Hog that it would require a new designation.

we might have built the most elegant CAS aircraft ever designed

So say that he really doesnt like cars, save that little Toyota hybrid which he thinks is quite brilliant.

All we know is.... he’s not the Stig! he’s the Stig’s Liberal cousin!

oh wow, it responds!

and son, this truck does less damage then all the hot air coming out of your mouth. so for all of our sake, just hush and give that poor little hamster up there a break.

except those idiots over at Fox have been pretty spot on when it comes to Obama’s reaction time. its either non-existant, or he takes too long trying to rally support. the bin laden raid a singular exception to the rule as a whole.

im sorry, but Obama and what Army?

there is no way in hell the American public is going to back another fight in that region, just to expel the Russians from the area. the people (myself included) would rather pull back and let Russia get dug in then try to step in, and both world leaders know this.

we had that, it was called the A-6

I CAN DREAM DAMMIT!!!!!

personally, id like to see the fleet brought up to Megafortress standard but thats a pipe dream

because its almost like the Hog in that its not shiny, fast, or new and therefore not a priority for the brass.

well MAYBE if the AF knew how to do a proper budget then we could stuff new engines into the B-52

they probably retract into the wing when they shut them off

because the tooling was destroyed and doing so would be fairly expensive to produce a jet the Air Force doesnt want.

not that i dont absolutely agree with you but you did ask

nah, if the terrorist isnt lucky he hears the crackle of the 30mm exploding all around him before he dies.

the rounds land before you hear the gun, and long before you ever hear the Hog. she is damn near the silent killer

probably multiple times what the Stang is worth.

why not just restore some A-36’s and go back to precision bombing the old fashioned way?

youre right, the friend of mine that i blew past then caught up told me it was around 130

(my father was in the hopsital so i kind of lost my shit getting there)

problem is dodge kind of cornered the market with crazy fast pickup when they stuffed the viper engine into the Ram.

the Raptor was a new direction for performance truck, and its not Ford’s fault that people who buy them dont use them.

some of us enjoy crawling, others enjoy tear assing through the sand at what most consider unsafe speeds. id have a Jeep for the crawl, but the Raptor is the best off road runner you can buy out of the box.

i had one of these, it was never that bad to drive.

nose started to lift at 130 but that was the only really scary thing
