ForScience: Technically Within Spec is Best Kind of In Spec

I’ve done rallycross and autocross many times. RX is fun, but stage rally is a totally different experience (for better and for worse).

A friend has previously given me crap for autocrossing rather than doing HPDE because of the seat time involved in each and while I agree that $/seat time is heavily in HPDE’s favor, I can autocross pretty much every single weekend, sometimes twice a weekend, for a full season for the cost of 2 HPDE weekends, hotel,

Amen. A certain segment of road racers shit on autocross as not racing. That segment usually is comprised of rich guys. The broke road racers get why autocrossers autocross. Fun AF, close competition, driving at the limit. You can do it with your daily without risking its existence.

ARA’s official media packet lists ~6000 spectators average per event. Plus some more on social media. That’s pretty much shit. Even Continental or TCR teams can at least list some actual TV broadcasts and/or show the entire race on youtube

This is where I feel like the benefit of having big name sponsors would.. come in handy:

this looks like a circuis more than how a government is ran, and that’s before all this “brexit” bullshit. i know other countries look at our congress and they’re right to think it’s a clown show, but for the most part it sort of makes sense?

i half expect someone to have a job in parliament to stand there in a bear

Johnson can’t wait for a no deal Brexit and will do everything in his power to crash out. Disaster economics gives him the opportunity to sell off assets, privatize, etc.

This is why everyone’s fucked. They were fucked to not vote for the deal May cut. They were fucked for keeping May around for so long when it was clear she couldn’t whip up the votes for that deal. They were fucked for replacing her with a guy who said he could renegotiate that deal when the EU kept saying they

I know that the structure of the U.S. government has its own stupid, stupid problems. But I still sometimes have a hard time believing that the British Parliament isn’t making up these traditions as it goes.

For my part, the film didn’t seem too long. I saw Part II as the second half of an “It” drive-in double-bill, and even though it didn’t wrap up until 2:00 am, I didn’t notice it dragging.* If anything, the truncation of the more cosmic portions of the story had me feeling that it was galloping to the conclusion.

At first, I was like “Really? They’re ripping off ‘The Thing?’” Then Bill Hader said “You gotta be f***ing kidding,” and I realized that they knew exactly what they were doing.

And honestly, I was happy about the nods to “The Shining,” “Psycho” and “The Thing.” One aspect of the book that was lost in Part 1 was It

The names alone scream sketchy af

Those “reduction gears” were in fact repurposed portal axle components of the Typ 82 Kübelwagen – needed not just to improve off-road performance, but also to make it easier for the car to crawl at soldiers’ pace.

I said much the same about the first film: more a fun hangout movie than white knuckle nightmare. The sequel is a logical extension of that.

Please tell me how to import a 70 series into the US and I’ll hand over that $500 American for the portal conversion.

I disagree with you absolutely wholeheartedly.

Based on what I see there most days, you're too late.

I don’t remember the exact specifics but there was something about gilding/giving gold to the comment which allows (?) you to still comment in some fashion even after the 6 month period to upvote/downvote reply is archived or something like that.

Considering how they’ve repeatedly handled or tried to spin negative reactions to their microtransactions, I feel like they’d sooner frame the record than avoid it.
