Throughout the sporting world, I think that a big key is getting girls (younger women) involved in sports

Because little girls are encouraged to play with toy horses but not toy cars.
Soccer is a massive part of some cultures, bigger than auto racing in any culture I’d wager, but the USWNT dominates even though the USMNT sucks because cultural attitudes of women participating in sports is an independent variable and most cultures/countries don’t prioritize it. Even the other good national teams in…
Endurance, hell yes!, but woman are pretty equal to men in that regard.
You can hear her speak right before she takes off in the GT R. Unless Sabine has traded her thick Deutscherakzent for a distinctly British one, it ain’t her.
If you don’t really need a car but you want to have fun with them then you don’t need to pick something boring and rational.
As far as I know, refineries don’t have much to do with the difference between regular and premium: it gets cracked and isomerized up to some minimum and then octane boosters do the rest. Since tetraethyl lead is illegal for road cars in the US, that’s usually a combination of highly branched alkanes and ethanol. So…
Your N52B30 only has a CR of 10.7:1. I’m just guessing, but BMW may recommend premium so that people don’t have any issues at altitude (and they figure their customers can afford the difference). I’d be interested to know if the ECU alters the timing when you switch, or if it detects any knock. Since you’re an…
That thing is gonna print money. I have no need for one, but I’m excited just cuz it means Subaru will be in better financial condition. Not that they’re in trouble right now, but companies which are flush with cash tend to be willing to do more crazy shit... like up the power on the STI or bring the Levorg to the US…
That’s the same as the WRX & STI: many places have 91 as premium instead of 93 so the ECU is designed to be able to adjust the tune for either. The ECU adjusts the tune to whatever you’ve been running, so it’s best to stick with one or the other. I’ve never seen both at one station though, so really only an issue when…
Wouldn’t work for LeMons or whatever they’re calling Chumpcar now, but would be fine for any more ‘real’ racing series. WRL for example.
it’s time to put an end to this love affair with the Scandinavian way of living.
My cousin in Rio was 6mo pregnant when the whole thing started. She took a leave of absence from her job, rarely left her home, and covered herself in DEET and mosquito netting every time she did go out. All turned out ok in the end, but man was it scary.
I actually do this on those rare occasions when I eat Cheetos. It works amazingly well.
I have once ever seen a Golf R in the wild. I’ve seen a few RSs and two CTRs. I see STIs all the time. AWD is 100% unnecessary where I live.
The biggest problem is it tries to privatize as much of the FAA as possible.
Oddly, Ms. Chao was one of the only Cabinet officials I wasn’t worried about: she’s a former Secretary of Labor (for all of W’s time in office), has held other high level positions in and out of government, and has generally been a reasonable administrator. I was more concerned that she’s Mitch McConnell’s wife, but…
I suppose it could be in contrast with synthetic analysis, but I’m not sure what that would mean.
The snappily named CRH380A train (CRH stands for China Railway High-speed!) holds the Guinness World Record for the world’s fastest passenger train.
