I guess it's a bit hard to contextualize the capabilities of something like a V12 biturbo with Christ-raising amounts of horsepower and torque when the car you drive everyday has just a fraction of it's capabilities.

You probably don't live in western PA, where they put stop signs on the freeway on-ramps. I can assure you, your car's 0-60 time is actually a safety feature at these entrances.

There is something good about this Alfa— all the Nope images that other commenters are posting are hilarious!

Is that it?

Tie a mattress to the back, and bam it's business time!

I am the less than 1%!

How about Simon Bolivar International Airport in Caracas, Venezuela, where there's a chance you'll be express kidnapped in the airport, forced to withdraw as much as possible from an ATM, and then let go? (Or, if the kidnappers think they can get more from you, held in the back of a truck overnight while they drive…

Or maybe that world started when Russia knocked Kyrgyzstan offline.

My uncle taught me that you did this by having a passenger shift for you while you used the clutch. It prevented getting hot sauce on the shifter.

CMU does it almost every weekend during the school year for Buggy (what happens when a soapbox derby marries a relay race and is left in the hands of engineers for about a century). The funding comes from students, so the budget is available.

You can space-duct-tape some sleeping bags to the wall and me to the impromptu acceleration couch. It would suck, but it would suck a lot less than dying in space. At least if you can get to Earth, there are medical facilities that can treat most anything that happened to you on the way down (assuming most of your…

I think the only AWD Saab is the 9-2X... which is just a Subaru underneath. You can even peel off the Saab badge and see the Subaru emblem, so I doubt little eccentricities such as the headlight switch carried over.

I know. I want to do the opposite. Turn on the headlights while keeping the dash off.

I'm confused. How do you see your dash with the headlights on? I don't have a setting for "headlights on, but leave the dash lights off and the clock on daylight brightness". Which would be really helpful for daytime rain when you're required to have the headlights on and still be able to clearly read your gauges.

...and now it looks like the crop is good. Must have been that blood sacrifice to the computer gods. Good deal.

If you sit divided, I recommend not sitting on the bum-stoppers placed on the benches at bus stops and parks.
