I miss my old Palm Pre. Picked it up the other day and the form factor, it's pebble shape just sits in my hand so nice. And I like the gesture based webOS, and the nice hardware keyboard that doesn't kill the design or make it feel bulky, and the touchstone charger. I want a phone exactly like that, but with updated…

Yea my wife locked herself in her car. She dropped the keys outside on the ground. Somehow the doors were locked and the alarm was armed when the door closed. Maybe the timer armed it, I don't know. Pulling the handle did not open the door because it was locked. The unlock button did not work because the alarm was on…

Well, I'm not in the market for a new car right now, nor could I afford a brand new one of these. A few years from now though, and a used one, I might just look into it. I'm not a fan of BMWs, and the Mercedes there's too many around. I like Audis, but the S4 is to small and the S6 I already have, well, the A6 4.2L,…

Roundabouts are all fine and dandy, as long as you don't overdo it...

One speed limit for all cars, big and small.

Growing up in the then Soviet Estonia in the 80s, there was exactly two cars that I would classify as SUVs that you saw around ever. There was the Lada Niva, and the UAZ 469. The end. Consequently I would submit these two as the best as well, as really they were quite capable on the crappy farm/forest roads, and if…

If by penguins you mean polar bears, then yes.

Nii ta on.

Yea I can do that too. Not an issue.

"Salto" means a flip-jump in Estonian..

Not sure I agree that the Camaro is faster, though it's hard to tell from this clip. In general, clean driving means a better driver and faster times. Dragging the tail in the snow banks slows you down adding precious seconds to your times. The Camaro driver does appear to be working much harder, which if that equates…

I don't agree with #9 at all. Usually the tracks are where snow or ice has been polished to a shine and is the most slippery.

..., but if you must, it's much more interesting to watch smooth slides on roads, than big flat lakes without any defined track.

Sloppy driver in that Camaro. Always turns in just a bit too late so that the tail drags in the snow bank and overdoes it, having to correct to get out of the drift. The BMW driver is much cleaner.

Weak. You don't need snow to slide an Audi..

Oh totally! Another legend.

I second this. The man's a legend.

Yay for Estonia! It should be mentioned that this event is a "Rahvasprint", meaning it's open to pretty much the general public with a car and enough money, and it takes place on a converted go-kart track so it's rather tight.

This was on Jalopnik a while back and I think the symphony of high revving F1 engines sounds just fantastic.
