Wouldn’t it be more accurate to factor in average wages? They have not risen at the same rate as inflation.

Honestly, I think I would take the Charger over the Challenger. I think it’s the better looking of the two. Just a shame you can’t get the manual in the Charger.

Eengineer’s mom was correct if we ignore the 25 mph bit. Downshift, of course, but knock off enough speed to get 5 mph below your target then get your stupid foot off the brake. Riding your brakes will result in not having any brakes.

He had me at air-cooled Porsches then lost me with ultimate frisbee.

This guy is why my insurance premiums are so high.

Road salt is horrible for the environment. That is the primary reason why California bans it and only uses grit like Alaska in the alpine regions.

I’ll believe the salt one. I’ve been to a lot of other states and countries during winter. And the quanties used blows my mind when I lived in the north east was insane. You can barely find a car over 10 years old.

In a normal pit stop, that guy wouldn’t be there when the car leaves pit lane. Depending on the team, he’s either the guy with the new wheel, or the guy there to take the old wheel. In both cases, if the pit stop goes according to plan, short of a fall, he wouldn’t be there when the light goes green.

Yeeey! It’s not a video from the Engineering Explain twat waffle!!!!

The light went green because there was 4 tires on the car, the left rear never moved.

This. It’s a job to them. They wouldn’t be up there if they didn’t want to be, and obviously if you’re pretty enough to get a gig like this you probably want said gig or you wouldn’t do it.

i sure as shit know alanis hasnt before spewing articles like these

This. Cultures are different in every country. You might not like it and it might not be right, but that’s not how the people on the other side of a border see it. Women still have to wear burkas in a large portion of the Middle East as far as I’m aware, yet no one seems to be championing that cause. Believe it or…

I don’t feel for him at all. He’s a terrible rider and should never get on a bike again.

“it is among the oldest cars he has ever driven”

I’d have given it some head pets.

Question for someone who isn’t an armchair mechanic like most of us here, but actually Knows Their Shit:

What is fucked here? Just the turbo? More?

While this is accurate information, it is just another in a long list of completely worthless metrics in the automotive industry.

Ummm, Raph, it appears this F40 was precisely stopped by snow. Being towed at 2mph does not equal conquering snow. It’s just a stupid thing to do.
