Yeah, his “apparatus” is a (dangerous) joke as well. 

I see they made the rare Fiat Flounder appear much more frequently than actual production numbers would suggest.

While I would never condone this for obvious reasons, the reality is that the trailer isn’t actually that heavy and the Silverado is more than capable; the lack of brakes and the overall size being the exceptions. I am assuming it is a V8 or diesel, of course. But purely from a mass perspective, it’s not a big deal,…

That Mercedes-Benz fine is laughable. It’s “sorry honey, we’re going to have to skip this week’s diner out” miniscule. It’s equivalent to a person making $50k a year losing $83.

Laguna Seca has the proper way. Turns are numbered but the special sections are supplemented with nicknames.

Murray claims the customers he sought for the 100 road-legal versions of the T.50 mostly demanded a manual when offered a paddle-shift, and so far only one customer had an issue with the six-speed.

A friend and I were on our local two lane highway several years back when we came up on an old...well, I don’t remember now, a Civic, Corolla, or something like that had a “Death Straight to Hell Wobble” going on so violent we could see the car shaking from a good 500 feet back. When we got up to it (he was going…

When a top fuel car (rail or funny) drops a cylinder on a run and the car lurches or shimmies sideways, it is not because of an “explosion” or anything like that. It is because of the loss of traction on one side from the reduced thrust of the upward facing headers now down a cylinder.

Ummmm, ok then.

I don’t disagree. I started so I could promote my website. It’s definitely... shall we say, interesting. 

Tell me about it. I got an OK Boomer on Twitter today. When I replied that I was not he responded that if I “post like a boomer does it matter?” I asked if by posting like one did he mean because I use proper grammar, am educated on history (it was a post related to it) or because I think for myself instead of blindly …

So Halloween is the new “talk like a pirate day?”

I feel kinda dirty staring your reply...

My God, that thing is U.G.L.Y.

Yeah, I know the feeling. When I bought my truck rebates were in the minimal $2k range. Within 3 months they had u-turned and were in the $5-6k range, and up to $10k a few more later. And there was no indication beforehand, as I’ve been here and other auto news sites since the beginning of the (modern & common) interne…

“Fuck this, I’m out!!” - Dog, formerly in Jeep

Actually, I looked it up to get the rest of the story, since I only knew some basics. Turns out they both licensed it from the original inventor independently. A bunch of companies did actually. It’s a bit too much to go into here so here’s the link to the Wiki. Pretty interesting stuff.

My buddy and I have wanted to build a C3 Vette with a four rotor wankel for years now. Unfortunately, we’re both poor slobs that can only dream, at least for the time being.

Good God what the hell RPMs is that running? I’m an industrial mechanic and no motor I’ve been around sounds like that, at least not in reference to anything at work. Tiny motors (like R/C cars) can have that kind of pitch when they get up over 5k, but I’ve never heard anything over a couple of HP like that.

Was going to comment similar, but want to add that even better, it’s likely saving GM money in the long run, as they (and all unionized manufacturers) have to keep producing even when sales are slower and/or inventory is high due to contracts requiring them to pay workers even during shutdowns, reduced hours, etc. …
