First, running nitrous is not universally illegal in these United States. There are, in fact, several states where it is not. Huffing it yourself is universally illegal in the US, but feeding it to your engine is not.

You’re a lot closer to right than the other responders. But not entirely with the drag on performance part.

Spoken like, say, a New Yorker who’s perfectly fine with that.

I don’t know what to tell you, except the Constitution calls it checks and balances.

I believe, it would be the replenishing of electrical power by generating friction resistance through the electric motor connected to the front tires. Thereby dragging on the car’s performance to “regen” the micro-battery.

When I was in the Air Force in San Antonio, I used to tell folks to rest easy and not worry about it.

I said that too. The “regen” is where it drags on performance. And when it comes to “lightening up” a nitrous kit doesn’t weigh more than 100 lbs either.

Christ. So effectively the hybrid part of the E-Ray drags on performance until the few moments you unleash it for maximum dick-swinging ability.

No more than New York’s 26 congresspeople or California’s 52.

Aw, come on ...

There’s a place for a pleasant transportation device with a droptop.

I actually owned two Audi 5000s. One I personally converted to a manual transmission because an adequate replacement couldn’t be found.

Hence the fanboi designation.

Dude. We are talking about the French ...

Now I know that you don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about. Fanboi.

We’ll see. I agree in that there are large parts of, and many use cases in, this huge country where electric vehicles make little sense.

This is where Meta’s rent-seeking ways will always pay off.

I vote for (A).

My wallet would disagree with your “don’t think you know what you’re talking about” mal mots ...

Actually, 365mm (14.3 inch) and 390mm (15.3 inch) metric wheels had everything to do with the demise of the Michelin TRX setup. And I say that as someone who had a car with TRX wheels/tires.
