HOV lanes don’t cause traffic to back up in other lanes. If the HOV lane was converted into a “normal” lane, traffic wouldn’t move any faster because of induced demand. But, by having an HOV lane, it does typically ensure faster travel times for people/vehicles that are able to take advantage of it, excatly because…

Reboot Carmageddon! Also Flatout 2, but it has to include the mini-games where the driver is ejected out of the windshield, and Burnout 3: Takedown including the pile-up mode.

Thanks, I hate it.

“Complicate, then add bloatedness”

It’s always been a car town. There are probably more formal events than there used to be but we had our own Woodward Avenue (Central Ave.) and cruising has always been a thing.

Not sure why it is “unlikely”  I grew up there and visit occasionally to this day and cars have been a huge part of Phoenix for a LOOOONG time!  Low riders were popular there (and still are), super cars, drag cars, jalops and the list goes on.  It is a melting pot of culture and the availability of rust free old cars…

Did you forget the /s tag?

Not so much SUV as crossover. Truck-based SUVs were already very much a thing when the Eagle came out. But AMC was way ahead of the curve using a car platform for this application.

No one is stopping you people from being shit human beings, but we have the free speech right to tell you that you are shit human beings.

The Lotus 340R. Essentially a Lotus Elise. But on a major diet. Without doors, or any sort of roof. Legal in about 4 years now. Hopefully prices don’t shoot up like everything else that hits 25 years old. 

There was an exhibit at the Portland Art Museum a few years ago of streamlined cars from the 30's and 40's. A lot of rare vehicles I didn’t know about before, I enjoyed it.

The Atom doesn’t have the aero or the top speed, the race version of the KTM X-Bow is a GT4, so it’s definitely going to be slower than a GT3.

I don’t have a ton of info about the BAC Mono, but according to the questionably credible fastestlaptimes.com, someone ran one at Oulton Park in 1:47 dead. A McLaren 720 GT3…

That’s not strictly how downforce works.

Yes:

The only one I can remember, due to the irony, was this old man’s car, plastered with pro American and anti-immigration stickers(THEY TOOK OUR JERBS, DEPORT THE ILLEGALS BUY AMERICAN USA #1!!). It was a PT cruiser, which last I checked was made in Toluca, Mexico.

“For a great low rate, you can get online! Go to The General® and save some time!”

Yawn. Anyone can produce a million dollar supercar. Want to impress me? Build something to compete with the Porsche Cayman.

While I think this whole Hypercar concept is just the FIA’s pride and not wanting to just adopt the LMDh formula from us miscreants in the colonies, the idea that a brand new car built to a brand new formula isn’t going to be faster than a sorted car out of the box is ridiculous.

I’ve been pissed off ever since the A110 came out since we can’t get them here in the US. At least we get Lotus. Can’t wait to see the Emira in full...a shame it will be their last ICE car.

I like electric vehicles, but it saddens me that even smaller boutique brands are dropping ICE completely.

The advantages of the double-a-arm suspension over the MacPherson strut has been known since the beginning of time. What took Porsche so long to come around to the obvious conclusion?
