in other news online gaming shown to offer inconsistent experience! Also, water wet and fire hot!

I’ve always been a fan of those too, but I never realized they were running that much boost! INSANITY! :)

OK, I missed that decimal... the world feels less insane now...but the idea of 82PSI of boost... it still amuses me...

BRM-v16: 82 psi of boost? Jesus-tap-dancing-Christ...

At my school there was basically the one guy with the Immaculate VW Squareback that he loved better than life itself, and me. My nickname was Speed Racer and I had an ‘89 Mazda Protege LX, white-with-red-painted-wheels that was known as The Mach 5. I also borrowed my mother’s ‘89 100 Quattro a bunch. In high school I…

Although the ABS could be calibrated to deal with this issue, the handling tests bear out your assertion that it’s primarily a weight distribution issue (compounded by soft suspension). Just look at that thing understeer!

Using crappier tires with less braking grip would solve it too...

ESPECIALLY with ABS, because the Computer can keep the front tires at maximum threshold without lockup. Without ABS the fronts would just lock immediately, break traction and skid. With ABS they are kept at maximum friction threshold which, in conjunction with the forward weight bias of the Renegade and it’s squishy…

Damnit.

Yup. I’d also like to see split-screen-multi-player make a resurgence. The *only* times I want to play games with others are when I have friends over and we’re in the same room, but we have to drag out the Gamecube or the Wii to play together, and frankly it would be GREAT if we could split-screen some of the modern…

Ford claims this will allow the 2WD truck to hit 25 mph on the highway.

have done this.

Exactly. They never talked about how LeBlanc is a serious motorcyclist, they just put him on a GoldWing for a challenge with no exposition. At least when Hammond rode the Black Shadow in the Jaguar-vs-Train-vs-Motorcycle race we got some back story about the machine and his fascination with it (and then the very…

at that level of damage they pretty much need to build a new one from scratch. Maybe the engine block and transaxle can be reused, maybe the steering rack... Maybe. But probably only the cams and crank and con-rods are recoverable, if even those. Fire that hot warps or melts aluminum badly and de-tempers steel.. .…

or, y’know, you could play TF2....

In Other News: Overwatch developers deney cloning Team Fortress (and TF2).

EXACTLY THIS.

soooo... Because the SC2s on forged wheels are a *killer deal* as a factory option I have to drive on them? I have three sets of wheels and tires for my FieSTa. That’s a car that cost 1/2 what the FoRS costs, so there’s no way FoRS owners are likely to buy another set for daily/winter/track. Your argument is…

the *sporty* Corolla died after that, true; but the Corolla was still a fine, reliable, well-conceived small car up until 2000.

Count me among your spiritual backers. ;)
