I can’t think of a racing movie that was even remotely relevant after Rush. The Art of Racing in the Rain had a chance and failed. Senna was two years before Rush and didn’t get an equally broad audience but I would argue it was more “important”.

BECUZ MERICA!!

I dunno, I have a hard time picturing a 650 lb bike with 100 hp ripping anything out of its socket.

In place of the “Rider Pays” section of the fare breakdown, drivers are directed to a web link that shows a weekly breakdown of their fares, how much Lyft took, and how much all of their riders paid during that time period in aggregate. In other words, when a driver looks at their history, the app now only tells them…

“A fisheye lens makes things in the center of the frame look farther way, and things on the side of the frame look closer... How did you quantify that in your distance time calculation?”

Maybe, but I doubt the IOM cops are cruising Facebook looking for traffic violations.

At present, you have to worry about puncturing a tank filled with a dozen or two gallons of combustible liquid.

Aquafuel saw an opportunity to use the stuff as a fuel thanks to its energy density, high oxygen content, and ability to burn cleaner than standard diesel, with low NOx emissions, a 90-percent decrease in particulates, and no smoke.

I gotta think these would be huge in the rock crawler community. 100% torque from 0 rpm, ultra-fine control of wheel speed, and you could roll it over without having to worry about fluids going where they’re not supposed to... Just set it back on its wheels and go, like it’s a giant RC car.

Go build it.

I don’t necessarily want a drift van, but my dream DD is a van that’s legitimately fun to drive. Something along the lines of a Transit Connect with a Focus RS drivetrain... 6-spd manual and all.

There are plenty of bikes that a short person can’t step over but a tall person can’t fit on. High seat height and high pegs means it fits nobody.

I’d wager the political math doesn’t work on that when you weigh the lesser revenue generated against the greater public anger that’d arise.

The one caveat is an electric start, and preferably fuel injection... Otherwise my zombie movie death would consist of me seeing a zombie limping along, about a 100 yards away, hopping on the bike and kicking it 3 or 4 times... checking to see if the petcock is open... kicking it 3 or 4 more times.... checking to see…

Now THAT is a good question... what car would you use to go up against KITT? The obvious, and lazy, answers are KARR or Goliath, so we’ll skip those.

If you think about it, KITT is pretty much the closest thing there is to an automotive Superman. He’s impervious to bullets, he’s faster than anything else he comes across, he has X-ray vision, lasers, and turbo-boost to leap tall building in a single bound.

Yeah, I’d think a religion course could be an incredibly valuable class if they taught the whole spectrum of religions with same objectivity they use for, say, Greek mythology.

So what’s the cost of this repair? I like to bag on Tesla as much as the next gear-banging, noise-loving Jalop... But this sounds pretty minor... Or, at the very least, a lot less expensive and timing consuming repair than literally anything that pops up on a 120,000 mile Audi.

If this ever actually happened, I imagine some standardization would be implemented pretty quickly so drivers could get acclimated to new cars sooner.

The one in that link is NP for sure, but you have to remember 2001's pull less money than the 2002+ cars because of their known oil consumption issues and less horsepower.
