A rear wheel drive biased, body on frame vehicle is an SUV. This still has a unibody. It’s a crossover.

Dad here. When my oldest son was born I made sure we had this ride to take him home in. That way he can say it was the first car he ever rode in. He will be 4 next month. He now has a younger sister, and I currently have 2 car seats in the back. We don’t drive it every day, but I drive it in good weather and will drop…

In that case, nearly every automaker is using an architecture that can date back decades. Ford had overhead cam V8s and BMW had overhead cam I6 engines in the 60s. 

There are pretty much only 3 things shared between the current LT1 and the original SBC: V8, OHV, and bore spacing.  Everything else has been redesigned several times over.

That isn’t pit wall but is actually a VIP seating area above the pit. The rest of the car is underneath the seats.  See the linked post.

I guess you don’t understand the driving credentials that Mark Reuss holds.

The CTS-V was quite a bit more expensive than and in a completely different class than a Camaro, Mustang, or Challenger. The 2nd gen started in the $70k range while the 3rd gen was over $85k starting price. A ZL1-1LE with the same engine and a more track focused chassis starts right under $70k.

Short of the 1st generation CTS-V, Cadillac has not offered a naturally aspirated V8 in a car. The CTS-V was a supercharged 6.2L starting with the 2nd gen (LSA then LT4), and the ATS-V came out with a turbo 6 instead of the LT1.

Pure water is the better heat transfer fluid.  It has a higher heat capacity (ability to take in heat without raising temperature) and a lower viscosity (helps internal mixing and transfer at walls).  Coolant is used on street cars as a way to avoid freezing and provide some boiling protection.

If it can be loosely interpreted as being within the rules, you do it. If you are allowed to tape over in qualifying and don’t sacrifice an engine, you do it.

My Camaro runs at 192 while highway cruising.  In heavy city traffic it will rise to 220 before kicking on the fans.  The fans will turn off somewhere around 200.

It also depends on what is allowed within the rules.  The All Star race is a great way to get full “real world” data on future developments.  That’s why they were testing it there.

How does PPI not mean anything in relation to pixel size unless talking about display size as well?  PPI is Pixels Per Inch.  It is a measurement of pixel density regardless of display size.

Agreed.  The money is in the name, not in the parts.

The original was built on the GMC version of the Jimmy which shared a platform with the Blazer.

This isn’t a V8 conversion.  It’s a supercharger, suspension, and visual package for a V6.

It is the wrong type of induction because the originals that these are based off of used a turbo V6 not a supercharged V6. That was the beauty of those cars. We are talking about a performance oriented turbo V6 that was out 30 years ago.

It is not street legal. “Not legal on pollution-controlled vehicle or vehicle registered for highway use.”

Telsa is unique in that regard especially since, in their way of trying to act like a tech company, they will introduce features at seemingly random times. And they can get away with that since they are still relatively low volume. However, for the rest of the mass production world, they work with suppliers on a…

Regardless of the model year not actually matching the production date, the model year nomenclature really helps out consumers. The manufacturers will typically do minor changes and updates to car models as they evolve. Do to how supply chains and negotiations with suppliers work it is easier to have a set date on…
