I guess the kids will have to be the fans of eRacing.

NP - This is a two stage process.

Well, I gotta say that Legends Pkwy looks like a great racetrack. A divided road in a gated community, so little chance of any traffic, especially after midnight.  

In my mind, this keeps resale values higher. Its much easier to compare value compared to new, when trim levels and pricing are consistent. 

I’d like to see a digital crash reconstruction to investigate the physics behind getting a car to cartwheel UP ONTO a house.

I had an ‘05 Wagon with the V6 and manual. It was a great looking car IMO, but unfortunately, it was mostly Ford running gear. Power was underwhelming, gearing was too low, lousy fuel economy, transmission shift quality lacked precision.... After 10 years it was a $4000 car that needed $3000 worth of clutch and oil

Agreed. Might be fun in person, but a yawn on video. That wasn’t even 100 miles in 45 minutes, as I expected.

It’s a pickup. You just throw a few extra batteries in the bed, and you’re good to go a long way.  /S

As the saying goes...What could possibly go wrong?

Where the hell do those off-road bikes and quads come from? I mean in where in NYC do you park those things? Are they trailering into the city?

This was more like the construction project manager misreading the plans.
“Oh, the pool support beams were engineered to be 100 cm thick? You sure it wasn’t 1o0 mm?

Can you say “made for the internet”? There is no reason for anyone to film that, except for clicks. Mission accomplished. Thanks to Jalopnik, they’ve made enough to pay for the urn.

I seem to remember hearing there was a limited number of key combinations used too. So you could try random cars (same model) with your key and unlock them.

Electric cars shouldn’t even bother racing on conventional tracks. Traditional race tracks demand the glorious sounds that internal combustion engines provide. Formula E is like going to a live theatre (remember that?) for a show with no musical accompaniment.

Well, to be fair, I would never believe attendance figures from an event promoter.

Exactly. Although I’m betting if the latest computing power used in cars were applied to trains, the failure rate would be close to zero.

“Three weeks ago, a car doing 90mph ran a red light and rear ended a family, killing the wife and all three children

And yet, trains keep crashing because of human error.

Well, its more about the falling from 10,000' when the car just drove off a bridge ;)
