Battleships are old school and irrelevant. World War 2 proved that battleships are not effective. Thats why we had the shift to naval air forces. I dont even think that ONE battleship that's sort of ready to actually sail anywhere is even in sailable condition anymore.

He actually doubled for Paul in the movie Running Scared, also (For those that have seen it, the scene where there's a flashback to a bullet being shot at them during dinner and comes through the wall). I dont think he's a close enough resemblance that he can actualyl fill in for speaking scenes. But for back/side of…

I personally perfer to use "duct tape", yes, but historically it's been officially regarded as duct tape AND duck tape. It was called "duck" tape at one time in reference to its waterproof properties. "Duct" tape I believe is the current accepted nomenclature, however.

They will just bear tape (In Russia, tehy dont use duck tape, they use bear tape) some peasants to the crane to repair it. It'll be fine. They'll finish lifting the tank in a few minutes.

I just noticed... the rear window looks really odd. Notice where the window ends and the weird angles in the roof line. It's like an oval window in a square hole and Im not sure if Im imagining it but it looks almost like they've sunken the window into the fastback, Sort of like some of the late 60's Dodge Chargers.

I agree, I dont like it at all except for the rear end. It has a very aggressive look... but I dont really understand why the diffuser is body color? That's a bit ridiculous to me, but the rest of it looks great. The front looks very, very generic and I agree that in general the proportions are off.

I can see these things chopping up dogs, getting tangled in trees, hit by cars, cuaght in power lines, dont get me started on apartment complexes....

But this is a FANTASTIC idea even if it's a bit... loony. And ripe for abuse.

You missed the point a little bit. A car at 60mph has more than twice the kinetic energy of a car travelling 40mph. Anything above 30 IS fatal unless you hit something softly, something that will give. Like another car or a guardrail. You hit an immovable object like a wall or a pole at 30mph it will kill you and…

Crash tests are done at 30mph, and those cars are destroyed. All it takes is avoiding an errant housepet on the highway or an oil slick or ice patch or whatever and the car could be going sideways at 50 mph and it could easily result in something like this. The amount of energies involved ARE huge to do that to a car,…

Car enthusiast and competition pistol shooter (He is often pictured with .45 ACP 1911's)... despite the pretty boy image, dude was a real bro's bro, and I mean that in a good way. Sad to see him go, one of the Hollywood actors with personality and passions in life that I can actually relate to.

It's plenty appreciated overseas... as its very common out in Euroland, but here in America no one really knows about the Rover V8's, which is intereting because it was designed by an American company... Buick maybe? They couldnt make it work and sold it to an English company I believe, they refined it, and it because…

I thought Mclaren was in England?

I blame Obama. (Government told GM to shut down Pontiac in exchange for cash allowances)

I believe these were the fastest GM production cars to exist until the LS1 came around. But does an aftermarket-tuned car count as a production car? I love the Firehawks, though. Fantastic cars.

FALSE. Vector M12 is a body kit on a Lamborghini Diablo chassis.

Does the GNX count as American since Mclaren tuned it? Im not sure... But I vote GNX anyway.

CAFE regulations.

The early third generation F-bodies (82-85) had a Pontiac 4 cylinder as the base engine. The "legendary" Iron Duke 4 cylinder. I think that's what powered the little mail trucks for a long time. Anyway, in the Camaro/Firebird, it was a 3100 lb car with 90 horsepower... Awful.

A lot of them look a lot nicer than people ever gave them credit for at the time. My personal favorite is the 1969 Chevy C10.

What world are you living in? Between 1995 and 2010 the Mustangs have made a VERY unimpressive 260-315hp, which is even more depressing considering they used OMG OVERHEAD CAMS, and still couldnt figure out how to pull any more power out of it without throwing superchargers on them. The F-bodies have made 345+ hp since…
