If I remember correctly, someone from his team had already showed up, they had exchanged insurance info with the other driver, the representative from the team was going to stick around and the team had got clearance from the police that he could go. It was only the one cop that was trying to keep him there. Notice…

You’re a bit out of date, the only currently available Monsters are the new non-trellis 937 and the old, trellis frame 1200.

Fun fact, they already did ban about half of new dirt bikes from public land starting in 2022. You can still purchase them, but they can only be used on private land and race tracks.

The problem with “Just-in-time” is everyone only reads surface deep into it and doesn’t truly understand the philosophy of it. People just think that inventory=bad when that is not at all the case. Toyota had a chip shortage like 10 years ago (I think during the Japanese tsunami?) and so they adjusted chip inventory…

In Mexico the F150 is called the Lobo instead of F150. So you can buy a Wolf Raptor there.

Just a tip from someone who has worked at an aftermarket company as an engineer, and I know some other people who’ve worked for other aftermarket companies, the owners of those companies tend to be assholes and they also have extremely high expectations with below average pay.

You can also use the transmission from a NC Miata (2006-2015) as those use a 2.0L MZR (Duratec) engine.

The Spruce Goose has been in an aviation museum outside Portland since 1993 and on display since 2001.

It’s a Smyth Kit Cars Ute kit. They make them for a few different models. The Charger based one is my favorite.

They sold it and leased it back. It’s still their HQ.

Especially since adding regenerative braking adds almost no weight or complexity. If electric motorcycles have adjustable regen, there’s no reason not to include it in a lightweight car.

Same goes for the Subaru Sexually Transmitted Infection.

It also did 1000 miles over 5 days.

What about the 2-door Mini JCW?

I think Raph has been struck by the same bug as me where I constantly forget that 2020 is over and it’s 2021 already. Just add one year to all of those dates.

As someone who has had multiple cars with auto HVAC, you still adjust it all the time.

Rally cars have these wonderful things called lights that allow them to race at night.
