yeah i get the sentiment.

One thing I’ve never quit understood; does a plane make a “sonic boom” only when cross the sound barrier, or once a plane is traveling at the speed of sound it is basically followed by a rolling sonic boom?

Anyone else uncomfortable with this hand position? Looks like every soccer mom in their Sequoia.

I see you got all the ‘but this is America’ responses already like without any pressure, companies don’t/wouldn’t walk back as much as they could. Just because there are safety regulations in no way guarantees them in perpetuity. Businesses and the right have been chipping at the edges of what we have accomplished in…

“We don’t need unions anymore”

I enhanced the video and that little orange diamond on the trailer definitely says, “No nukes in here.”

It was last weekend (sorry), but here are some pictures of a British car event at Zandvoort.

My worst track day was about a month before Christmas a few years ago. I had it all planned out, it would be an epic day for me and my then 8 year old son. First, I’d head to Toy’s R’ Us and pick up this little gem.

He then popped up and said “Must be something...i8!” as a large curtain dropped behind him, unveiling the latest concept of BMW’s groundbreaking hybrid-composite sports car of the future.

As a mechanic in the Cleveland Ohio area I wish we had inspections. Some of the unsafe cars I see in my daily drive scares me. It would take some getting used to but would be worth it in the human lives it would save. As for the tech he is at fault. Should he get jail time? I dont think so. A fine and maybe a new…

The tab is welded to the bar, so it would have to be at the right height, too. I really don’t have a logical reason to do this over a wrap-around attachment.

He got lucky. And luck should never be the reason. Kirkey’s a known quality seat maker. Not sure whose harness was in use. But that doesn’t matter a bit if the mounts aren’t adequate. Add in no padding on the cage where the driver could contact it and apparently an improperly secured nitrous bottle and now you’re into…

It’s easy to picture a tightly-wound freak emerging from the gym, seeing the truck, and dropping his gym bag while a stain of rage-urine re-darkens on the front of his pants, but the truth is I just don’t know...

If your country is America then YES

So having an unreliable and visually derelict vehicle is a pre requisite for car aficionado-dom?

This is the correct answer, but for the wrong reason. The real reason is that this V6 sounds better than any V6 on the planet.
