From that angle it looks like something Jeremy Wade would pull out of a central american river.

As much as the cars have changed the support elements might have changed even more over the past 40 some years. The car carriers and paddock activities in the video look antiquated when compared to what you might see at a modern SCCA club race. Even 15 years ago it was common to see Formula Fords arrive at…

Put together with the care and meticulous attention to detail one would normally expect to find only in the finer things in life... a chinese manufactured Tom Servo for example. CP.

Anyone want to bet on how long before there are kits available that claim to increase the effectiveness of the VTEC system by switching to blue LEDs for the gauge?

Sure. $36 large sounds fine. Can I pay with my debit card?

So you make question of the day "What's the most awesome motorsport no one knows about?" but you use jet sprinting as your example? Why ask the question if you're going to give us the definitive answer?

Ahh the Cavalier convertible. The instrument of temptation that almost pulled me into the beigeness.

Nice! Uphill from turn one (pit out area)?

Yes, just after Turn 10b heading up the hill toward the bridge. Great spot for pics. Especially in the morning while the sun is low and behind you.

Thanks!

Yes, Friday morning practice. In the full res original the third light is there and it looks like it is on, just obscured by reflection of sunlight. The pic before this one was the number 92 M3 and the one after was the number 4 'vette. All three cars were running with all three lights on.

If I got my hands on this thing I'd want to cobble together cheap looking, cheap sounding, loud as hell stereo that lacked any form of volume control and played a continuos loop of 'Ace of Spades'.

You're right, we probably were standing right next to each other!

The original is 4288x2848. I'd be happy to send it to ya if you can tell me where to send it to.

I thought the trick was to fill the washer fluid tank with cheap scotch and then plumb the line under the dash?

First thing I thought of. Well played sir.

When Justin and I first started working at the Maneater if a writer wanted to type up a story they first had to completely disassemble the typewriter, degrease it, re-lube it, put it back together and function test it. Usually something was broken so you'd have to go back in the typewriter boneyard and scavenge for…

"...never pick fights with people who buy ink by the barrel? Or, more appropriately, in this case, TV shows with more viewers than you have electric cars to sell."

An automated highway lane control system based around those "Severe Tire Damage" punji stick things from rental car lots. The system would activate upon detecting a combination of congested traffic and a lane blockage (due to accident, construction, etc...). The system would prevent vehicles from merging from the…

It should be common sense that the microprocessors controlling the basic functions of a car should have zero interaction with anything attached to the internet - note that I'm talking in the vehicle during normal operation... downloading firmware updates at a service center is something different.
