The government always specifies the requirements for weapons systems. Did you think that the contractors were writing the requirements?

Nowhere is it more apparent, than Gawker media, unfortunately. I used to love this place, but it’s becoming more and more ridiculous by the day.

So, there’s nothing in the job reqs about editorial standards, journalistic integrity, or even the ability to utilize proper grammar, then?

I played in a men’s baseball league last fall, for the first time since high school (15 years). Back in high school, I was used to high 70s, and the occasional mid-80s fastball. Now, the guys in this league are throwing 65-75, but it took several games to get used to it. Before that, you just see if it’s going to be…

Here’s my boy with my 2016 Mustang GT/PP, and a very pretty Mach 1...

My wife has had three straight Benz vehicles, and wouldn’t ever look at one. Her next vehicle might not be a Benz, but it’s likely that she’ll switch up to a Jag. A Genesis? Nope.

Minus the wheels and the doors, which will never make production anyway, I think this is a hit! I especially like the subtle, yet noticeable rake of the roofline. Seems like they tried to match dosome of what they did with Explorer, but make it more visually interesting.

The Ford Racing Handling Pack is different than the Performance Package that you can buy the GT with. It includes upgraded dampers and springs, swaybars, bushings, and endlinks, and is more aggressive than the PP.

That car, everything about it, was just amazing. I had a chance to ride in one at Gingerman Raceway, back in 2006, and it was absolutely fantastic. Turn in was sharp, it could brake way later than any other car on the track, and it accelerated like a damn bullet!
The guy who owned it was actually willing to sell it to…

Non-premium, I have to believe? Mine is a Premium, with Premier Trim, Navigation, and the Enhanced Security Package, with Performance Package. I paid $38k, after X-Plan and rebates.

My 2016 GT/PP driving self can’t wait to read this!

Gotcha. I’m in the US, and it just seems like the bitrate never makes it up to where it needs to be. I can barely watch it on my laptop, even with a 25 Mbps internet connection, and forget about trying to cast it to my 55" television via Chromecast. The quality is garbage.

I sub’d to the V8 Supercars ‘Superview’ last year, and the quality of the content was abysmal. Sure, I was able to see the races, but the video was grainy and of poor quality. I’ve since found other resources online...

They’re almost completely offensive. Since the sabot rounds won’t be able to maneuver with terminal guidance, their impact against long range missiles will be minimal. They’re mostly designed for long range bombardment, similar to the way howitzers are used.

Where were you driving? Fairmount Park?

I very seriously looked at G8 GXPs a couple years ago, before Chevy made the SS available with a manual, and the prices were insane. You couldn’t find a GXP/manual with 30k miles for less than $40,000. They looked like a lot of fun, but damn, they held their value way too well for me!

It was a 2015 with Magride, and it almost perfectly damped. The roads are pretty good here in Charleston, so it wasn’t chattering over crappy roads, but it absorbed undulations and variations with zero issue. I launched it pretty hard (the sales guy was egging me on) and there was barely any squat, just go.

I test drove one (albeit, an auto), and that thing was a damn monster. It really deserves its reputation as a great driving car. Throttle response is incredible, it drives like a dream, the suspension and steering is super responsive but not overly stiff.
