I’ll take desperate in the literal sense and not tell about using fishing line to run the throttle through the window, but I was very broke and poor and absolutely could not miss work hours. Drove my Subaru GL-10 to work and I was going to show up early so I could get my free meal and relax for a hour or so before my…

Incorrect. I’d much rather make 200ft-lbs of torque at 6000 RPM than 2000RPM

Sports cars should be faster than a Camry.

Nena is an awesome woman! I’ve personally seen her make a grown man cry by rocking his jeep when he was side hilling. “Stop it, it’s not funny, I don’t wanna die!” Great guide, I did things in baby Jeeps that I honestly didn’t think I could do in my own Wrangler.

I did about 30 seconds of research and bought this... I already have a pretty nice drill. Buuuuut.....

It’s illegal in Brazil to drive with flip flops? That makes sense now. 90% of the motorcyclist wear nothing but a speedo, a helmet, and hang their flip flops off the handlebar grips.

Walked into a Movado shop in mall wearing flip flops, Khakis, and a battered t shirt I had been working on cars in. I had started my new career as an engineer and always wanted a Movado. I had no plans to buy a watch, just to look, but when I asked to see a watch and the salesman responded with “Let me see your…

Tons of power? A 2015 Camry is faster than a 1070 Challenger R/T.

Title: Takata Apologizes.

All the 2017 cruisers come with a Milwaukee 8 liquid cooled engine. So.....

People with zero common sense and “wrenching” know how go right into releasing for the most part. The team they work with helps prevent them from making mistakes of previous engineers. You don’t need to have wrenching experience to design a vacuum pump. They guys deciding where everything goes and the general shape…

It’s not cheating if everyone’s doing it. It’s what all the cool kids are doing nowadays.

There is a group of engineers in every company that get nearly free reign on design. Vehicle Dynamics Engineers. We’re given a group of cars and told how each attribute of our car either needs to be at par or better than the competition and then we get to decide how to do it. We’re mostly restrained by budget for…

You’re E30 M3 is my 98 Viper GTS-R. I can understand where you’re coming from.

In inch or two of lift shouldn’t hurt it. Damping is damping. Roll stiffness changes. The only time you don’t want to lift is when you have bypass shocks. Position dependent damping requires correct ride height.

Ride ratios are calculated for a strictly forward operation.

I chased down a motorcycle this morning in my 2016 JK doing 100mph swerving through traffic in an attempt to tell him his reserve fuel tank fell off and was still attached by a bungee cord and he was spilling fuel all over the freeway. Typical commute through metro Detroit.

I would not buy a “Brand New 2015" anything midway through 2017. Some of those could possibly be up to 3 years old, and there’s a direct well known correlation between lot rot and vehicle life durability. “If you don’t use it you lose it” holds very true

Yes, I was at APG looking for something fun to do in the desert. I actually did go to the track and did a bit of exploring.
