There is a problem with large reflectors on satellites. Drag. Satellites with large surface areas require more fuel to maintain orbit which would make a multi-part mirror for surveillance impractical. The JAMES Webb Space Telescope will positioned at L2 and expierience very little drag allowing for such a large…

I've always had a thing for the 1970 Plymouth 'Cuda AAR, especially in Plum Crazy(I know it was called In-Violet for Plymouths but Plum Crazy sounds better). I don't even care that it only has a 340.

Having discovered that only 630 pedalcyclists died in motor vehicle related accidents in 2011, I have decided I no longer care. No one here will change their opinion through any amount of argument and until NHTSA releases the full report arguing semantics is pointless. Thank you and goodnight.

I agree that in most situations if you hit a car in front of yours, you are at fault, but there are circumstances such as blind turns and crests where collisions are unavoidable. I have seen a bike travel through a car's windshield so I know it can happen. 30 lbs. at 45mph is more than enough momentum. Most cyclists…

First, drivers' safety is at risk if they hit a cyclist because other drivers are more likely to then hit the first driver and because it is possible for a bicycle to thrown the windshield of a car after impact. Secondly, while I agree that cyclists have the right to be on the road, in my area they do not follow the…

The 13B is essentially modular allowing for three identical rotors to be combined with a common crank. They aren't true 20B's as the intake ports are different. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe both engines displace 1910cc. A 26B can also be created in this fashion but crank strength becomes an issue.

As far as the FF replaced the 612 which replaced the 456 you are correct. I wouldn't really call the back seats comfortable for anyone other than children or small adults and just because its a ferrari with a V12 doesn't mean its the same engine as found in the Enzo. The Enzo uses the Tipo F140B while the FF uses the…

1967 Imperial Crown Coupe

1962 Ghia L6.4 Barris Coupe

I'm not sure it qualifies for the luxury requirement but the AMC Eagle SX/4 is an oddball choice.

How about this posted on BaT today. 1955 Studebaker President Speedster. [bringatrailer.com]

I know that it doesn't have 4 seats, but can't we make an exception this one time? 1930 Bentley Speed Six Gurney Nutting Coupe

The first of many submissions. 1936 Cadillac 452E Fleetwood Aerodynamic Coupe

A friend of mine has an early 4th generation mustang and despite being only 6'1" there is nowhere in the car that I am comfortable. Even with the seats in the rear most position I don't have enough leg room.

Not only was it the budget drag car, but it was downright cool. The 1969 American Motors/Hurst SC/Rambler, preferably in the B paint scheme.
