Man, F1 should just keep reducing the size of the fuel tank and take the lid off the powertrain rules. That would effectively drive teams to improve the effciency of the drivetrain without hampering innovation. 

Comedy gold! 

Anything over 478 centimeters in length and even then that’s pretty long.

Depends, if you like shelling out 30k every oil change the spin on filter and cartridge filter house in the S550 GT350 has to be torqued to spec (16-18 ft/lbs) otherwise those rascals are going to vibrate loose.

Friend’s dad didn’t notice the O-ring stuck to the mounting pad on his sister’s Honda and she went down the road and called their dad back about the oil light on and a burnt smell. Unfortunately, she cooked the engine and it had to be replaced. 

Somewhere the retired Ford employee responsible for installing the old spin on filters is laughing diabolically. I think the employee’s motto was “tighter than any one man could handle and just a little bit more”. Three different generations and four different engines (New Edge 2v, S-197 3v and S-197 4v plus gen 1…

The factory uprated model. Hard to beat the level of engineering and refinement when you go from the base or regular to the SE ( like say GT to Mach or GT500 or 911 to GT3 or whatever).

That is Sema level amateurishness. Tesla isn’t some hot rod shop spitting out a show car hawking their accessories. They are barely even a niche manufacturer at this point and their prototypes and show cars should reflect their talent as a serious manufacturer.

It’ll be fine! One thing you can count on with Tesla fans is how willing they are to gloss over stuff that would be unacceptable for a legacy manufacturer.

Teenagers are immature dumbasses pure and simple. Me and my coworkers were just talking about the stupid shit we did as kids his age. One of my coworkers at that age worked at McDonalds and he was talking about how they used to ice skate on the frozen patties then would serve them up. Another coworker used to work at…

Most people probably agree, it was a dumb move by a kid wet behind the ears but a simple apology doesn’t work in the world of social media and how easy it would be damage the brand and hurt revenue. Europe is especially sensitive to anything perceived as naziism.

I knew the Sentra was going for a fair bit of cash. Nissan had a great car when it introduced the SE-R and a lot of late boomers and Gen-X’ers the latter of whom couldn’t afford them at the time really loved those cars.

Sure, you can call someone a sucker but the finally got their dream car. 

There is no practical way to get EV weights down since the energy storage medium is the primary problem. The extended range hattety in a Model S weighs almost 1400 pounds and stores the equivalent of about three and a half gallons of gas in terms of energy

That’s a tall order - really the only way to get something like the runoff under control is to put everybody in a densely clustered area along with the necessary industry to support it (runoff would then be collected and treated before being released into the environment. Anything else can be brought in by rail, train…

that wouldn’t even happen with the current administration. Before the sanctions were imposed the majority or representatives in congress went out and purchased oil commodities and probably increased their oil company stock holdings which by the way is completely legal for those fuckers.

That’s why EVs and public transportation are for the peasants so the gentry can balance out the profligate environmental abuse. 

Pfffttt... real villains travel around in luxuriously equipped nuclear subs. That way they can travel almost undetected and if need be utilize their onboard doomsday arsenal from anywhere in the world.

Indeed, but that was the plan from the start. there isn't much room with cam timing on a 4v DOHC V8 since the heads flow so good so they went with the odd even for a flat-plane crank arrangement.  Plus the common intake plenum needed consideration. 

naw, 90 degree odd-fire V10s with side exhuast sound like doo-doo.

They got what was come’n to ‘em! The Klingon justice system was fair and impartial! Next time don’t break the law!
