I have been driving a Leaf since 2012.
Combined Corporate Nametag for the new KTMD: Hauls-Ass-But-Don’t-Last.
19" wheels?
nyet. no “explode” button.
ah. that’s good. not like i never made a mistake on a motorcycle. still - was he a noob racer with that bigass vehicle? #lawyerswithlamborghinis
I’ve been going fast since the ‘70's, but i’ve never been on a track. I know the holeshot is important and everyone wants to be first to turn 1, but i got a questin for the racerdudes: how important is it to srart off the line with the rpm’s bouncing off the limiter? I mean, whatever fraction you gain is almost…
that was a cop, and he pulled his gun. he was gonna shoot until he thought he was gonna get rolled. bad judgment, IMO because of all the peeps around. but hey - cops.
Polynya.
you might enjoy googling this: “towed array shark”. that actually happens, sharks attack them because of the electrical field they generate. sharks use electrical sensors to find squiggling fish, and their sensors are attracted to the power in towed arrays and so they bite them. happens all the time. however, i have…
the pressure would be directed downward/outward and it might be a fun ride in the boat for a while. overpressure waves are bad for valves and pipes and stuff you really like.
no. however, sometimes that stuff just falls off. glue. who knew?

yes. absolutely required for surfacing through ice. imagine the shear forces they would experience otherwise.
the difference between the weight of the boat when it is submerged and when it is surfaced is called “reserve buoyancy” and it can be in the thousands of tons in the case of the big boats, and is in the hundreds of tons for attack boats. reserve buoyancy is the energy available to break through the ice. it is an…
no. you totally could not. think about how you might like to trigger a torpedo. given its intended target, how would you cause it to explode? it is done magnetically. also, they like moving targets. a lot. see?
“average rider age was rising steadily at a rate of about 6 months every year since at least 1999. In 2008, Harley-Davidson said its average rider was 48 years old, up from 46.1 in 2004 and 43.4 in 1999"
it is actually a slow process. not all boats are under-ice capable. the submarine hull is freaking strong as hell and is surpprisingly flexible. note the sail on that boat does not have planes on it. that is for a good reason. older boats would rotate the planes vertically to go up through the ice. newer boats have…

Is this model intended to replace the FXDX? That was sort of a cool Harley, but it is gonzo. If only they’d pull their heads out of the matte-black attitude cloud and reissue the XR1000 bike (and NOT that stupid Sportster thing they tried to get away with). People would eat up a new, actually-good XR. Actually, I…
