I can’t believe that Polaris just giving up on the Empulse. It’s one of the most polished electric bike out their, and their good showing at Pikes Peak should help keep that brand alive.

It’s all how you drive, yes they might make 1000 hp, but you can use your throttle to use 200, 700, or -100 hp while braking. Taking it easy and not dumping on the accelerator will give you much better range. Add in regenerative braking and you can hypermile an electric car quite well.
I didn’t know they were remaking the PT Loser
Four wheel drive doesn’t help you stop, bros.
Batteries and capacitors both have operating ranges up to about 100° C, plenty more than what cars get to in direct sun.
Another segment that had a lot of potential that was wasted was going more in depth about the home built cars. They had a gorgeous reproduction of a race car, and they didn’t even say what engine it had in it! Conversation Street might have the cheesiest intro, but I think that could be a solid 5 mins of car news and…
VW’s top five factories are in the EU and employ 150,000 workers combined. The sixth largest is in China (Hmm, which market is growing now?) with 15,000 workers.
Almost every car has a Class 1 hitch available for it. This is for 200 lbs tongue weight, and 2000 lbs total weight. In the UK, they quote around 3000 pounds of towing capacity for a Honda Accord, although they tow at lower speeds than we do. Americans have been fully convinced that we need a full size truck to tow a…
Get a trailer for $400 that any car can tow?
I am a 200 lb 5' 11' man, and while I don’t fit on the 50cc, I do fit on the 90cc. Going 15 mph across a yard feels like 150 mph when the suspension is bottomed out, and the motor is screaming for it’s life.
Step one: Get a dirt bike. Maybe two. A 90cc for the kids, and a 200 for you and/or the wife. Get a compliment of helmets for everyone.
The FCC has guidelines saying that every carrier must allow consumers to purchase their own device to use with their service, or be able to take a device they own and move it to a different service (barring any technical incompatibilities.)
The company showed a Harry Potter game, where players can pretend to be wizards, which might be the best use of VR yet.
That’s the LED PWM working, it is out of sync with the frame rate of the camera.
Maybe it’s just because cars (Crossovers) keep getting higher and higher, but it seems that more than 70% of the cars coming past me on the highway have lights shining directly into my eyes. I know on my car I had the adjust the right headlight because it wasn’t pointed down the side of the road, it was pointed up and…

“subtract 10% for optimistic computing” Just an interesting tidbit, my Mini computer actually says that it reports conservatively, so I get 3%-5% better real world MPG than it reports.
While you’re in there changing bulbs, give your headlight adjustment a look! Too many people have theirs completely out of whack, and then complain they can’t see anything. It’s because you have your headlights pointed up to give the ISS a night light, you dork!

Top speed faster than walking? Who needs it when you can climb a 16% grade!
